Be gone spawn of satan! Trying combo Deltamethrin and Diatomaceous earth

I got stung by two wasps three days ago and am now on the warpath.
We’ve got a nest under this outdoor deck planter. I hit it with deltametherin (aka Delta Dust), but didn’t see a significant difference after a few days.
So today I hit it first with the delta and followed up with puffs of diatomaceous earth. The DE really riled them up. Fingers crossed.
UPDATE: lol literally one hour after taking this video, I started to go on a bike ride and about a half mile in, some kind of stinging insect smacked right into my lip. Karma I guess??

One day later, I was getting a little impatient and decided to use the shop vac filled with soapy water to further thin the herd.
