Wasp nest! Any good solutions out there?

Hey guys,

My 87.5 Coupe GT was out of commission for while because of a bad fuel pump.
Well I finally changed it last weekend and the car's driving great with much
less fuel pump whine (Pierburg rubber encased pump).  The problem I have is
that I've got a wasp nest embedded under the LF fender just beyond the
bottom of the A pillar.  I didn't know it was there until I was working
under the dash on some electrical issues when I heard a buzzing near my ear
and that's when I saw the nest.  Its a little larger than a golf ball and
the yellow jackets on it look fairly active.  I don't have a issue driving
around because the door is completely sealed when closed but opening the
door is a quick open and shut operation.  Anybody run into this?  I don't
think I can spray poison into the body seam because I'd be breathing it
while driving the car.  Or maybe should I poke the nest with a broom handle
and then run like hell :^0
