I had a massive yellow jacket nest in the ground in one of my flowery beds this year. There were thousands in there. I sprayed around it as much as I could be it did not bother them.

A friend owns a pest control business and brought me on of the bee suits. Told me to put it on, go over to the nest and pour a half gallon of gas down the hole. That would take care of them.

I put the suit on and did so but I have to tell you. That suit keeps you from getting stung but It did not keep me from being scared like a little girl around them. When I was close to the next and was pouring the gas down there, those little bastards attacked me. All over the face netting. Flying into it and in a bad mood. There were thousands of them

Not sure I could do that around hornets.

Are those in Louisiana? That looks like what stung me Sunday. Walked about 5' by a nest and didn't see them, one popped me on my knuckle. I'm mildy allergic, so my whole hand started swelling. 48 hours later and the swelling is just starting to go down. It hurt like a mother fricker for about a minute when it stung. Felt like a torch on my knuckle.



Nope, they're in China and Japan.

If one of those frickers stung you you'd probably be in a coma, considering you're allergic.

Maybe not

I know for a fact that hornet killer will only knock them down for about 20 seconds then they shake that off like nothing happened.

I see I have a new hornet nest growing quickly under the awning at my shop entrance. Gonna have to get a big can of that hornet spray stuff as I don't feel like melting the awning with a blast of flaming gasoline.

What was the home owner saying in the background? Sounded like something about black people.

I hate you. So I watched your video which induced fear which released whatever endorphins these assholes are attracted to because when I cut my grass last night (not an OT baller, no gardener) and sure as hell got stung by a wasp. He sought me out like a heat seeking missile.

I'd charge $20k and if they say its too high, I would come down and would be willing to go as low as $5k.

Should have left them there, they aren't aggressive at all. I had them two summers in a row at my house.



I don't know about "leaving it there" with little kids around, but you're right, they aren't super aggressive unless you're fricking with their nest.

They're very common here in North GA and I see several flying around every day during the summer (we live next to the woods, no telling where their nest is at). They're loud as shite and will buzz by you every once in a while, sometimes will just hover in front of you to check you out but they don't seem to be looking to sting like a yellowjacket does.

Yellow jackets are like nature's SJW's. They're always looking for shite to be pissed about.
