Dump a box of mothballs inside the boat. I also use a tire protector called
"Wet 'n Black" to keep anything rubber or vinyl from drying out and
cracking...or you can use baby oil. Spray it everywhere...I have had no
wasps or ants in my boats for 15 years. That is a pretty tall order here in
Florida...

How does somebody get out, and keep out the wasps in an older fiberglass
boat? In this I'm referring to my project boat which is fiberglass, and
until now, without a cover on it. I was having a problem with wasps in
it,
every time I came around it. So over the last week I've power washed it
(which blew down a couple nests), and I soaked everything with the wonder
wand so I could peak under everything to see if it was clear. From what I
can see, all wasp nests are gone unless there are still some way down
under
the belly of the boat (under the floor) which is the last place I could
guess as that's the only place I can't really see into...(at the front tip
of the boat I believe there is a small opening down to there and at the
back
near the drain I believe it opens to there too...

Since covering it with a tarp, I've looked in and noticed a few small ones
flying around the window of it...

Short of fogging the entire boat (if something exists like that), I'm
interested in any tips anyone may have.

Cheers
