FYI: soapy water kills hornets too - the soap coats their abdomen and they suffocate. After trying to take out a nest and having an unexpected gust of wind blow a can of RAID back in my face I decided to look for non-toxic alternatives to kill off hornets. A squirt gun filled with a mix of warm water and dawn dish soap works better than RAID ever did, and if you have an old school super soaker you can spray from a heck of a lot farther away.
