20 oz Aerosol | Outdoor Use Only | Up to 27 ft Jet Spray | Wasp, Hornet & Yellow Jacket Nest Treatment
Spectracide Wasp & Hornet Killer 20 oz Aerosol Spray
When wasps move into gutter lines, roof eaves, soffits, siding edges, sheds, and exterior corners, the job gets risky fast. Spectracide Wasp & Hornet Killer gives homeowners and crews a long-range outdoor spray for treating visible nests from a safer distance before exterior work, cleanup, or maintenance turns into a sting-fest with wings.
Built for Outdoor Nest Treatment Around the Home Exterior
Can size: 20 oz aerosol.
Spray reach: jet spray reaches nests up to 27 ft away.
Target insects: wasps, hornets, yellow jackets, and other insects named on the product label.
Use location: outdoor areas only, including exterior nest locations around gutters, roof eaves, soffits, siding edges, sheds, garages, fences, and similar exterior surfaces.
Useful Before Gutter Work, Exterior Repairs, and Yard Cleanup
Wasps and hornets love protected exterior spots: under roof edges, near fascia, behind trim, around soffits, inside shed corners, and close to gutter runs. This spray is a practical item to keep on hand before cleaning gutters, repairing downspouts, working near fascia boards, or checking exterior areas where stinging insects may be nesting.
Use it when a visible outdoor nest needs treatment from a distance and the product label allows the application. Always follow the label, avoid standing directly under the nest, and keep people and pets away from the treatment area.
Long-Range Jet Spray for Hard-to-Reach Exterior Nests
The jet spray reaches nests up to 27 ft away, helping treat nests around eaves, rooflines, gutter edges, trim, siding, and other exterior areas without needing to get as close as a short-range spray would require.
Best timing: apply at sunrise or sunset when insects are least active, following the directions on the product label.
Non-Staining Formula on Most Home Siding
The formula is designed to be non-staining to most home siding, depending on the siding age and cleanliness. Before spraying near visible siding, trim, painted surfaces, or finished materials, test an inconspicuous area and check it after a few hours.
Do not use indoors. Do not spray where the label does not allow use. Keep the spray away from open flames, ignition sources, food surfaces, children, pets, and areas where drift could create risk.

| Jet spray reaches up to 27 ft for distance from the nest. | Getting too close to an active nest increases sting risk. |
| Designed for outdoor nests around home exterior areas. | Nests near roof edges, sheds, and trim can keep growing if not handled. |
