Or should I wait until third of fourth frost?

(10,927 posts)I had to remove a wasp nest once that was in a rooftop vent directly over the bed in my camp trailer. I didn't want all that toxic crap dripping down onto my bed, so I froze the bastards out. In the middle of summer.
I got an aerosol can of spray that is used for cooling electronics when looking for temperature sensitive problems. It's called "freeze mist". I dumped the whole can on to that nest, and it turned into a ball of frost. I was then able to scrape off that nest with a drywall spatula. No more wasps, no toxic residue.
