I heard a buzzing sound coming from the vent in the bathroom and couldn't imagine how I was going to get them out of there.
I checked the vent and it had a mesh across the vent that was unable to be removed and I couldn't get any spray in there effectively or safely for that matter so I decided to go at it from the inside.

I like how easy it is!
It's really pretty simple and they are gone!
Great how to- thanks! But ESPECIALLY thank you for showing the spray coming out. That’s what sold me.
I've had good results not even removing the cover, just spraying it up into the grill and leaving the fan run. I do it at night when they are all in the nest. Eventually I'll have to replace those soffit vents with something that has screens to keep those buggers out!
Never got a bathroom vent invasion as I am regular and deadly.
I did get an invasion in my fireplace, I hardly use that thing.
43 yrs old, just took a dump with my first spectator wasp. So here I am... hope this works. I also have a peppermint spray I'm going to use. Check that out, they apparently hate peppermint.
Good luck and please let us know if the Peppermint works too!
Awesome!!!!
could diatomaceous earth be used??
Ive been getting wasps in my bathroom occasionally after heavy rain. Its been a complete mystery to me how they get in- especially since my vent fan doesnt really have space for these big suckers to fly out of. I definitely want to try this but 1. ....im short. I cant reach the ceiling and its a tight bathroom so i cant place a ladder.
2. Im .... Deadly terrified of a wasp flying in my face if i open the vent . Im a coward.... I admit it.
Im just gonna spray and pray.
That’s definitely scary but not a lot of options. I’m lucky this has worked for me.
thanks! @@butchnewell
I have never heard of wasp in vents until I found 5 in my bathroom! Ugh.
I hope this helps. My girls are so afraid of wasps and this made them feel safe to go back into the bathroom.
Butch Newell where I live they have a problem with wasps. They are everywhere..
They are in my bathroom keeps coming in OMG
It’s no fun for sure.
I 'd like to try this but bug spray is flammable and I am worried that a spark from the fan motor might ignite the spray.
I’m not sure what spray you are looking at.
This spray and many others like it are not flammable.
Won't it make the blade sticky? Making dust stick to it?
awakenu1 Great Question! I actually checked to make sure before spraying and as you can see it came out fine.
No residue for and dust to stick to either.
How are wasps able to squeeze in those tiny vent slots 🐝?
Their are big holes in the mesh of the vent. It’s a manufacturing issue. This definitely works to kill them and remove the problem when it happens.
Hi should I leave the fan on after spray?
You shouldn’t have to. I didn’t and the wasps were gone. The spray coated whatever was in there and they never came back.
Gotta try this tomorrow.. i had the foam kind so i tried lighting a piece of paper on fire then put it out to make a smoke screen at them.
... i set the fire alarm off and coughed a lot. But i got them swarming and lit the vent up from the window.
I think i killed like ...THREE!? - the foam sucks. Lol
Found a yellow jacket in my bathroom and i suspect it came through the vent cause i have no windows in the bathroom. Am i in any danger? Im extremely beephobic which doesnt help
Did you make it? This just happened to me!
@@abbys213 I can't believe its been 2 years. I've been wasp free since that incident, up until a week ago one came through the AC. Nightmare fuel
@@icehot900 😂
Does this go throughout the whole vent system?
Great question!
No. It just goes from this fan to the roof. Just a short 3’ run.
Did this treatment yesterday and I am finding random wasps throughout my house either dead or walking around almost dead. My dog got stung twice so far from wasps on the floor. How long will this go one for? And could this mean they are in more than just the bathroom vent?
Heather Peterson No, I haven’t had any issues like what you are mentioning.
The exhaust vents normally only attach to the exhaust fan and vent directly outside. The only other possibility that comes to mind, is you have a hole in you exhaust vent and the wasps have migrated to other areas in the attic or wall.
Butch Newell thank you. That would make sense. The dead/dying wasps are ending up in the same areas. One room on the first floor and the bedroom right above it on the second floor. The vent is in the bathroom on the second fooor
Heather, hopefully that treatment took care of it and you won’t have to mess with it again. (Fingers Crossed)
Was the mesh damaged? How was the wasp able to get pass it?
The mesh you speak of is not like the screen mesh covering your windows.
It’s a very wide 1/4”x1/4” square that allows the wasps in there. Just what came with my house.
@@butchnewell OK makes sense. I should probably check this on my house. Thanks
tempo dust is the best
I don't have any fans?
I have openings so this won’t work
LoL I just got rid of a nest in my bathroom vent yesterday. I didn't do anything that you did though. I had 6 Ryes, and then stuck my shop vac hose in the vent, fell off the ladder and then ran like a bitch. From the reminisce the nest was approx 1.5ft-2ft long.
I like that idea. Here the vent tube is a light weight flexible dryer vent material. With my luck, I’m would have poked a hole in the vent and introduced the wasps to the entire attic.
You don’t remove the nest?
RickM1953 No, Not in this video.
@@butchnewell I have a large inactive bees nest in a roof vent-. The vent is very similar to what is shown in your video. What's the best way to remove it?
Susan Szczebak You might need to call a professional. Sounds like a pretty serious issue.
