    Have tried various insecticides in squirt bottles to little if any effect. The only good news is my backhand tennis stroke is improving, Any help would be appreciated

    We used a spray in an aerosol can called sure shot. We use to have them at Bull Run really bad. From what I hear now they have almost disappeared. you can either spray them directly or in the hole. The spray will not harm turf but I would still be careful not to drown the turf with the spray. email me if you want more info. eferrell77@aol.com

    Also, Delta Dust works well. The bottle and opening is perfect to insert in the hole the wasp has made.
