Changed the garage seal, loaded it with steel wool. Not exactly happy with the 4" seal, I just ordered another 6".
Been fighting with wasps this past week. They are entering in the gap between the chimney and the Hardie board. After googling they only live 2-3 weeks I first started sealing them in, after noticing the wall buzzing I decided better to draw them all out before resealing. I bought doubles of every wasp trap Canadian tire has and also 2 wasp glue traps off amazon. I baited with the stuff Canadian tire sells, also added wet cat food. Amazingly all the traps are working. I think I caught the queen yesterday, it's 2-3 times as big as the others. I also found 2 more nests on my property. I've been hitting them with the backpack sprayer loaded with Dawn/water.
I loaded the crack with the foam wasp killer, its supposed to make the nest inhabitable in 48 hours. I'll wait until tomorrow, I plan to fill the cracks with steel wool and cover over with quikrete mortar repair caulk.
Always something to do. I see condo living on the horizon.
