For the record, soap kills insects. Get a good spray bottle, put a lot of soap in it, more than recommended online for me.

I genocided a ground wasp nest I stepped on some time back with the soap water, they don’t make the connection between me and getting sprayed. I spent like three hours spraying countless wasps.

They jive around when sprayed, then maybe 12 seconds they go on their back convulsing, still within a minute.
