Wasp Nests?

A nest of wasps or hornets has taken up residence under the wooden terracing/steps in my yard. I've sprayed the area as much as I could with commercial products, at night when they are in the nest, but since it is under the wood I can't get them all. Any suggestions?

About the wasps, what I use is dawn dish soap with water in a sprayer. It
works great. I just killed 15 the other day.

The Dawn detergent sounds like a great idea but could someone be a little more forthcoming? What are the mixing ratios? How does one apply it so that it is sure to be lethal to the wasps (bees?)? Thank you.

I also use Dawn and water. In a standard size spray bottle I add 2 tablespoons of Dawn dish soap, and fill with water. My current problem though is its drying out leaves on my hastas. If anyone has any tips Id love them!

I cant figure out why the wasps are so particularly attracted to this one hasta. There doesnt appear to be a nest that they are all coming in and out of, but I suppose I cant really know for sure.
