From the Internet:

# Nests should be located during the day, so you can see the workers entering and exiting all day. Mark the entry points.

Any treatments should be done at night, because they are all in the nest. They don't see well at night and your chances of being stung are greatly reduced.

Treat the nest with a pyrethrum aerosol such as CB-80 PYRETHRUM

Pyrethrum forms a gas which will fill the cavity, killing the yellow jackets.

# Check the nest the following day, to see if the yellow jackets are indeed dead by lack of activity.
It may be necessary to repeat treatment.

If all the yellow jackets are gone, dust in the opening with Drione Dust . This dust will leave a residue to continue to kill for months and eliminate any hatch outs.

With a little care and caution, yellow jackets can be easily and safely eliminated.

# Another recommendation would be to use a trap with a lure like fruit juice or meat like : YELLOW JACKET TRAP by Advantage, which would be helpful if you can't find the location of the nests.

Place the trap away from where you are going to be, you want to lure them in the trap.
This trap is very helpful during picnics, and cook outs , etc.by drawing them away from you.
The traps come with a lure, however meat works best in early in the season and fruit juice works well later in the summer and fall months.
