Bees, bees and more bees

So while getting the outside of our house ready to be painted, Jeff informed me that we had wasp nests all over the outside of our house. Those little buggers had made nests underneath the roofline all over the place, inside vents, light fixtures and even in one of our trees. Jeff was able to spray a lot of them down with a power washer but there were a few that we had to get with wasp spray. So Ryan got onto the roof to take down the shutters and to spray the bees. The sneaky little things had even made a nest in our down spout. So Ryan sprayed inside the spout and you should have seen all the wasps come falling out of there. Here is a picture of the massive grave of them after falling out of the down spout.
