I was mowing and apparently I rolled over their nest in ground by a pine tree.
They fricked my foot up.
Stung me 3-4 times on it.

I let them settle down and I walked over and found their entry hole in ground by the tree.
Went to my truck grabbed gasoline and a match.

All hell broke loose.
I poured about a quart worth of gas down the hole threw a match and that’s when the onslaught transpired.
Just as Keiser Sosay handled matters, so did TIGRLEE.

3-4 got me good but I killed every other yellow jacket those 3-4 knew.
With fire. And gas.

Frick em.
About 1000 less yellow jackets in the world.


I’m ok though, I’ll be in full force in Austin tommorow night.

I use a 5 gal propane tank and a 3 ft long nozzle on the end of a hose to produce a flame thrower that ROARS. It's a blast to walk toward their in-ground nests behind a 4 ft flame vaporizing them and their nest. Frick those bastids.

Same thing happened to me years ago mowing. When they stung me, I got the reds something awful. shite was on.

Gas down the hole. Match. Flames. And I cursed them as they died. Had a dead spot in the yard for months, not from the gas, but from my calling down the power of God on them.

I was about 11-12 years old, mowing our storm cellar. Bunch of pissed off wasps went right for my face. By the time I got away, I think I took 7-8 to the face. I looked like the elephant man. Dad mixed gas and diesel, and let me watch the show. frickers.

I guess I was about 17 and was in a junk yard looking for some parts for my car. A wasp flew out of no where and got me on my forehead. It felt like a hammer. That thing swelled up real bad.

One time a yellow jacket stung me on the dick.

Painful as hell but I did enjoy how the swelling made me look larger.

I usually wait until night when they are all in their nest asleep and pour a cup of gasoline down the hole. Kills every single one of those frickers without a chance of me getting stung.

I got stung in the temple one morning mowing under a tree in our front yard, I screamed every curse word I'd heard since I was in the 5th grade.

Looked up and my neighbors wife was quickly escorting their two small children to the car while looking at me like I was the devil.

Sorta scary.
