I'm not the only one who has discovered this. Carb or brake cleaner. Both work equally well. Instant death on contact.

Have to try that sometime. I've been a fan of wd-40, or lps-1. Once coated, they go 2 or 3 steps, and flop over dead.

Good marksmanship training.

I have never seen a bug actually stopped dead in it's track, by a bug spray. Worst has always been spiders. Spray those little buggers until you are sure they have had to be DROWNED in the bug spray... and even then, sometimes eventually they'll just drag themselves out of the flood, and go on.

Well, I found a spray that stops them dead in their tracks, instantly!!!

It's called "super slick stuff". You can get it at lowes for like 6 bucks a can. It's a spray lubricant. Smells like oranges.


That orange smell made me wonder if the 'active ingredient' that caused the quick death was orange oil. So I bought some 'orange cleaner' in a spray bottle at goodwill for $1.79. (New product. Not some used bottle. LOL) Seems to work just as well. Even though the goodwill spray stuff has very little actual orange smell.

You might give the super slick stuff a try on a wasp or hornet nest.

I noticed that even the spiders that didn't get sprayed, but simply walked in the still wet sprayed area afterward, also instantly died.

So if you got the entire nest wet with the stuff...

Bald faced hornets. Get the spray that shoots 30 feet and comes out like shaving cream foam... wait till the sun goes down and you almost can't see the nest. Spray the hole to plug it up, then spray the rest of the nest to soak it. A day or two later take a garbage bag out and wrap it around the nest, then clip the branch to which it's attached and tie the bag shut. Shake the bag, and you're sure to hear buzzing from deep in that nest!

Or.... leave them bee if they only bother you when you mow.

1st and foremost, these fuckers are dying for sure. They are not going to be let alone. At least one stung me, and I cant go near that corner of the yard.
Secondly, there is no way in hell I am getting close enough to wrap a bag around this thing. Any Wagunners work for beer or scotch? I am absolutely terrified of bees. Nope nope nope nope!

Well TW needs a work out.....

Hand him a rake and bet him he cant drag the sucker out in one piece.

TW will get a couple mile run in.

Along with a serious calisthenic arm work out waving and swatting.

And you'll have the nest out in the open so you can safely torch it.



Work smarter...not harder.

^Exactly this. The spray works really well.

^^ This is what we call a hornet nest... Our colloquial terminology may be off. These paper nests are built full of hate and contempt for mankind.

The one below are full of cool little guys who live and let live, unlike the murderous little fucking bastards in the paper nest above.

Both of those shown, as well as yellow Jackets (assholes with wings) are killed with predjudice, fire, or weapons of mass insect destruction on sight.
I have found yellow jackets are the meanest, the other two do not bother you unless you really bother the nest, yellow jackets will hit you for looking their direction, and they tend to be aggressive at picnics this time of year now that the water is drying up they get mean.

I used a few brands but now I only use RAID wasp spray in the black can. It is non foaming but from experience it knocks them out on contact pretty much. I had a nest like the, just hosed the exit whole with the entire can and all they did is drop out.

The worst part of 'discovery' of a nest is when you're painting the trim of the house and you're 30 feet up on a ladder with a paint bucket and a brush.
Ask me know I know....

Nuclear fire.

I have not read this whole thread so forgive me if this was previously covered.
If this is indeed Yellow Jacket nests this is what I do. I first wait for a cool morning and make sure that they are not flying. I place a large blue tarp underneath the nest I then knock down the nest onto the tarp with a long pole. After the nest has hit the tarp the bees will be crawling around, I then take my baseball bat and mash the s*** out of them. Hence that is why use a blue tarp so I can see the little bastards as they're crawling off to safety, so they think. Caveman is a killer of winged things, small or large, they going to die.

Good luck LC and as a precaution warm up those legs just in case you have to run like hell.

12 gauge alone wouldn't do for this nest. You'll need the Air Corps to pop by for a Gelenite drop. Of course you'll not have much remaining in the way of a yard, or buildings, but you'll be bug free.

I was on my roof the other day installing a vent when the vibration from the hole saw got them stirred up under an eve 10 feet away. I had no idea it was there. I only got hit 4 times as I was bailing off the roof, fucking up a gutter on the way down screaming like a little bitch. I used a shop vac and 20 feet of 2 inch pvc to suck them up and capped the end for a few days. All dead now. Damn thing was the size of a soft ball.

I've seen signs advertising that they remove them for free.
