Are your yellowjackets the meat-eating variety?

If so, get a small can of cheap, smelly catfood, and go to a garden center and buy some rose dust. Open the can, mix in a generous spoonfull of rose dust and then put the can in one of those little mesh bags that onions and lemons come in and hang it near the nest (off a tree branch, nailed to the side of a building, whatever, as long as it's up high enough so the neighborhood cats don't go after it).

It'll take a few days, but the little SOBs will poison themselves and their whole nest dead, dead, dead.

Much to be preferred, IMO, to approaches involving personal confrontation.
