[QUOTE="DDD, post: 116170, member: 35"] I'm going to send difficult child out to the mailbox with some Bounce. Bless his heart.....he'll find that exciting AND he can run like the wind! The "hanging OFF thingy" will be sought this afternoon. Maybe I'll hang it off the post support. Marguerite, your burn 'em suggestion brought back a funny memory from my first marraige. My then husband and I were in our mid 20's, lived in Virginia and spotted a wasp nest. He decided to burn it at dusk when the bugs would be sleeping. He torched it and THEN discovered that our hose was not long enough to flood out the fire. [img]:rofl:[/img] It was like a Laurel and Hardy sketch with neighbors running with their hoses and buckets etc. No harm. No foul. The house (a rental) was none the worse for wear. Phew! I'm not sure about underground nests as the handyman must have gone down at least 3 to 4 feet. I "think" that somehwere I read that the color (or non-color, lol) white attracks wasps. Thanks, guys. We have the niftiest looking mailbox on the street and even the postman doesn't want to get near it. I'll give you an update in a day or two. DDD [/QUOTE]
