Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have an old ornamental bird house that sits about 2' off the ground. Yesterday while trimming shrubs I heard a buzzing sound and come to find out that the birdhouse has a yellowjacket nest inside. I put a trash can over it hoping the sun would cook them but since it is in a rock garden, the trash can doesn't seal at the bottom and it took them a fraction of a second to figure that out. I guess I will have to dress in protective gear and douse the house with a diatomaceous earth slurry that has worked in the past. Wish they were pollinators but all they do is destroy apples and other fruit. I did get stung once yesterday when I was dinking with them. My own fault for sure.

They are a pain in the ass. . .
