I would spray the nests early in the morning.

I love the "Rescue" brand fly traps (if you can stand the smell) so I tried their wasp/yellowjacket trap last year. I caught ONE wasp all year. ONE.
Heh. Yeah I"m allergic too. Seems to get worse every time I get stung. Wasps hated me growing up. My cousins, friends, sisters and I would all be playing together in the same place and out of all of the possible targets - I was the only one who got stung.
I was stung at least 12 different times by highschool - and my sister who was by my side most of those years? She only got stung once.

Thanks all, I have been going out every night and spraying the areas where i see them enter the attic eaves, and in the loft of the barn. I have been killing a couple of dozen each night. The problem is that I cant actually see the nests. I guess I will keep doing what I am doing.... Do those fake nests really work???

Here's a link I saved on an effective homemade trap for Yellow Jackets. I don't know if it would work for wasps, but it's still a neat link.
