The stream machine barely reaches and is difficult to aim. I got it a little bit. I got as much on myself as the nest. It's not a knock-down poison so I won't start seeing any results for 24 hours, per Do Your Own.

I mixed up another batch and tried again, none of the spray attempts even reached the nest. It's just too far up. Anyone got a link to a good but cheap pressure washer and whatever attachment I would need to get a stream of water up there with poison in it? I know nothing of pressure washers or pressure washing.

Fill a balloon and throw up there

If you managed to do all that and not get stung, maybe just wait for Winter to take them out.

The nest has tripled in size in one month. I'm not waiting. I already waited too long.

Shoot the nest down with a shotgun right before dark. Make sure someone videos. Make sure you comment on the video, “Hey bubba, watch this!”
Wait till midnight and throw it in a trash bag.

get up on a ladder

If they’re 50 feet off the ground, why bother them? I almost guarantee no one is going to get stung.

The 50 feet issue would not be a problem whatsoever for me. I would just purchase a good wasp spray that would reach approximately 3 feet. If one of them stung me on the nape of the neck, I am certain I could easily vault the needed 47 feet vertically to place myself within the remaining 3 foot range necessary for a complete take down of the offending nest. But that’s just me

Why not get a tall ladder and then bust their arse?

No idea what your house looks like, but is there a window somewhat closer to where the nest is? If so, lean out the window and get a good shot at it with a pressure washer, water hose, your stream machine, bug spray, etc.
Oh, and have your wife film it for us.

Get a drone, let it hover near the nest and watch them commit suicide

If u need more range, get a joint of half inch pvc and glue a hose fitting on each end.... you can attach water hose to one end, attach the yard spray bottle full of soap or poison to the other end, voila!

Here's what I did. Get a good pump sprayer, some fuel line/small hose and a long pole like a pool pole. You run the hose down the length of the pole held on with zip ties and attach the nozzle to one end and the pump/bottle to the other end. Basically you just made a pump sprayer with a really long wand. Now you have a 20' pole, a 20' stream from the sprayer and you can stand on a 10' ladder to get the 50 feet you need.

If it’s that important to get em, rent a vertical man lift. They’re pretty silent but you’d have no where to go if they decide to come at you

Kinda along these lines, get a long section of PVC and fill it with soapy water. Get an Air nozzle with an air compressor. Get the pvc as close as you can to the nest and use the air nozzle to blow it on the nest.
