So, the guy came today and thinks there is a nest in the fireplace/chimney, but because it is hard to tell where they are, he proposed leaving a small, 1 tsp amount of Sevin powder in the fireplace for the yellow jackets to step in. The powder should kill them, but it can take hours to work once they have stepped in it. Obviously, I'm still having an issue with the yellow jackets getting out of the fireplace despite tape and stuffing paper into crevices as they push the paper out of the way. My worry is the insects will get in the powder and escape, which will expose my cats to the Sevin, and maybe even try to eat the insects with it on them...
My vet is not in the office today, and is supposed to be calling me tomorrow but no one could tell me what time. The guy may be coming tomorrow or the next day, I'm not sure.
I just don't want to put my babies in danger and would like to hear what people know about it and if it is a danger if my cats ingest a bug. And if that should be a concern for me.
