A plethora of stuff I find interesting, from hobbies, survival gear, tips, how to stuff, to just for fun, or any suggestions you may have. Hope you find it interesting too.
Easy Wasp Killing Solution
I've been killing wasps with this soapy water solution for years now. Much better at killing them than with toxic sprays. Simple and easy, I killed an entire ground hornet colony at our neighborhood park between some cross tie boarders of a play area. Just mix about the same amount of soap you would use to wash your car or dishes.

Time it takes to Circle the Galaxy
Просмотров 163 года назад
If the center of the galaxy were the center of a clock, and the sun's path were along the minute marks, this represents how long it takes the sun to circle the galaxy. The sun and earth have circled 20 times and in 19th pass, dinosaurs began. On the 20th pass bipedal beings came into being. So, if a quarter of a minute on the clock equals 1 million years, then we have not even been here 1 second.
Will 2020 Corvette C8 180deg Exhaust or Flat Crank?
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.5 лет назад
The video clip from Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Florida shows a 2020 Corvette C8 with 180deg exhaust. This is either accomplished by paring exhaust ports from both left and right banks to get a balanced exhaust impulse, or by using a flat crank (like an inline 4 cylinder motorcycle) to balance the impulse. The video clip from Nurburgring, Germany shows a 2020 Corvette C8 with the ...
How to Remove Sticky Stuff from Furniture
Просмотров 1 тыс.5 лет назад
The Tater Chip method works well at removing sticky stuff of all sorts. I used it at my old job to remove the residue left from duct tape stuck on a desk. Just about any brand of chip works and you can either rub the sticky spot with your fingers, use a paper towel, or a rag to rub on the stick spot. I prefer using a paper towel.
Gasifier Twig Stove

This little cooker is awesome! Once it gets started, wet twigs, no problem. So, next camping trip where I need to go light, this will be with me. I suppose the only drawback is as some others mentioned, it doesn't catch the embers from falling out of the bottom. My solution is I picked up metal pie pan at the dollar store to place under it. This was right around $15 from Amazon and here is the ...

This is a solar viewer I built out of a box. It works quite well to view the sun's image and can even see the clouds around the sun or when the sun goes behind trees.

Scare off and Get Rid of Wasps, Bees, & Hornets
Просмотров 197 тыс.8 лет назад
Simple thing I found that works to keep stingy critters at bay. Stuff a small brown paper bag with some wadded up newspaper. or those ads you get in the mail. Make it round looking by tucking in the bottom corners, twisting the top closed, and tie it off. Fasten it under the eves of your home. I used a drywall screw to fasten mine but a staple gun would work too. Beauty is as beauty does, so to...

How to make an Alcohol Camp Stove for Free! e001

Cheap, simple way to make a stove that can use denatured alcohol, a high proof liquer (180 proof recommended), and not really recommended, but also unleaded gas.
Thank you so much for sharing video and success for you success always
You're welcome! This is the first year in 7 years that I've had a wasp nest, but that's to be expected because it's starting to look like a worn out bag instead of a hornet nest.
Very good explanation, i will try it, if they go away i will let you know. Thanks
Can you use the small paperbags? Or maybe even plastic bags? I live in rural area and have so many. They even make nest in my side mirrors on car or inside door area. Thats what I'm fighting now. I got the nest but the queen chases me away from my car. I've spray it with 2 cans of killer to try to make her leave but she persistent!
Before these will work effectively, you have to rid the current nests, or put them up and wait til next year. As long as you make it look like a hornet's nest, I recently painted mine a light gray, you should be fine. The more effort you put in to making it round and not look like a McD bag haing up, the better it should work.
I don't see a hive anywhere, just 3-5 always seem to be hanging out in my carport. Even with no nest, would it keep them out of there? I'll have to test it I suppose
I'd imagine they have a home then somewhere you couldnt see
Amazing tip, will do that.
What do I put inside the bag?
Stuffed mine with wadded up newspaper mostly
Tried it! I had a red wasp infestation. So I built several of these and put one one my front porch, two on my back porch, one under my gable on the North side of my house, and one under the eaves on the East side of my house. My neighbors thought they were real wasp nests, so I know I did them correctly. Over the next two weeks I got stung on my back several times, one smacked me in the face and stung me multiple times, my husband got stung, and my children got stung! So, after the two weeks, I called an exterminator, because those red wasps weren't budging, even after I sprayed them all with foam insecticide THREE TIMES.The exterminator sprayed, and within two days they were all gone. I have that guy on a quarterly spray contract now at $90/quarter - so worth it!
It's definitely worth the money to hire an exterminator if you have a serious infestation of wasps and yellowjackets.
Before the decoy nests will work, you have to get rid of what is already there.
I don't mind bees but the other 2! No way!
TQ sir..usefull tips
Good excuse to always have chips in the house
Hi all, just to explain how to use this setup, you MUST FIRST eradicate any existing wasps or wait until winter, clear any nests out, then put this up. This is going on the 6th year of these hanging under our front and back eaves and no wasps or bees nesting on or near our house. They still frequent our flowers but no nests. I was thinking of replacing them this coming fall because they are starting to degrade. The next ones will get a generous coat of clear matt paint to protect them from the elements. If you have done this and found it working for you, please comment. All the best!
I tried this and it DID NOT work!
Tried it and guess what! It didn't work 🤪
Gotta try it, thanks
Now ya talk’n. I’m thinking strongly about putting a few up. 😉 thanks...
I put out hummingbird feeders will the fake hornets nest keep the hummingbirds away. Cause I don't want that.
If humming birds were bigger, they would kill us all! Ha ha! I've had hummingbird feeders out long before I had these decoys and they are afraid of nothing. I've watched them dual on many occasions. They will even feed when I'm only feet away.
I tired this today around the pool are hopefully this work.
Make sure you eradicate any existing nests first.
Goddamn I’ve got a problem and I’m about to go to war
Tried this and the carpenter bees don't care
THIS MIGHT WORK and that's all well and good, but then you're gonna be the guy with the funny looking bags hanging all over their house.....?
Well, to me, beauty is as beauty does. It's under the eves and is hardly noticed due to the shadow under the eves. In the back yard, I don't really care. This is going on the 6th year and still keeping 'em at bay.
So?
I tried this last year and it really worked. As time goes by you do need to replace it. But it really did work.
I'm getting a paper bag right now. I had 2 wasp nests on my balcony last spring/summer and the nests just get getting bigger. Thanks for the advice.
Did it and they're gone!
This video is from 5 years ago. Is it still working for you? Thanks,
So far so good. It's a bit early for wasps to start nesting here in Washington state, but for the past 4 years, it's worked great. I may need to replace the one in the front because it's starting to degrade from blowing rain and stuff. Next one will get sprayed with some sort of sealer to protect it from the elements a little better.
Thanks for the reply.
Thanks for the reply.
Thanks for the reply.
Thanks for the reply.
Please, come here. I hate these b!tchs!
Used to get Solitary wasp nests in the shed. Kept moving them, kept getting them until I was told to keep the old nest up instead of moving it. Never got another.
someone told me you had to destroy the old net so they did smell it and rebuild there
I heard about this a few years ago. I have a Mimosa Bush that was always covered with wasp's. I tied that paper bag on a branch and those wasp's never came back!
Yup! I'm going to have to make more as the ones I have are starting to disintegrate. But they still work.
@@ronscrazystuff3793 Yeah I have to change it out because of the weather.
Please would you advise if this work "on bees"? very important your feedback thank you.
Pls explain more, what is it about this trick that will keep them away? I have bees that come to my screen door as soon as i open my door? Why ? Icant go out during the day? Omg im terrified!! Is just a few !! and is winter with bees around? Why ? Are these creatures lost or any other reason ? Pls help !! ur feedback is very important! Im an elder and i have a progressive illness that if a get stung by a bee ill end up hospitalized. Pls what should i do i live in Arizona thank u guys for ur feedback would b appreciated these bees just appeared 4 days ago ! What do u think has happened?
Dora, the decoy hornet nests will deter not just other hornets but other flying stingy insects from building nests near them. They are territorial and will not allow others to nest near them. These phony nests make others believe that area is already occupied. However, if you have flowers, all will frequent like bees and stuff but will not nest near there. If you already have bees, wasps, or hornets nesting nearby, you have to get them eradicated first. There are people that will come out and collect bees for free here in WA to populate their own hives. Some will come out and dispatch other nests too. Check in your area.
It's so that the Red Wasps won't get their young / lavae eaten by Hornets (The bag resembles a Hornet's nest)

The chickens sound happy.
I did this after watching your video and no more wasps it works!! THANK YOU 🙏
Glad it helped. All the best!
I dont know about the bugs but I do love a laba dawg,watched the vid just cause I saw the black dog checkin everything out
He likes to supervise! LOL
Well it kinda work but not for the wasp since i put them my stepmother never came back so thank for this amazing trick!
🤣
BWHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH LMBOOOO
Thanks for the info. I heard about this process but was very unsure it would work. I will make some and place them around my house and shed tomorrow. I heard vinegar also works. Make solution with water and put in hand sprayer and cover the areas the bees like to go to.
They don't work at all.
This is the 5th season I've had these up and they still work for our place. You first must eradicate nests that are there and this prevents them from returning.
A flamethrower also does the job.
Wasps are driving me crazy! I'll try anything at this point!
yeah it might burn your house down in the process
@@maxinemcclurd1288 I know exactly what you mean
has anyone tried this for getting carpenter bees to move on?
Works for Carpenter Bees too
Thank you!
Love it.

These Work! I put one up last year and have one now, and boy I wish I knew about them a lot earlier
Is it just a bag
@@nickbrooks4043 that's right. So simple and the wasps don't realize it. They think it's another nest, so they go somewhere else lol.
@@twngrl56 I hung a few up and it is seeming to work
watch this ruclips.net/video/o32okFYYy0A/видео.html This guy has a wasp nest being built inside his fake wasp nest lol
Anytime there is an opening, wasps will explore it. The bags I used have no openings and the thing he used had two huge openings top and bottom. That is perfect protection for a nest and why I usually got stung when trying to do something like get my canoe off the rack outside to go paddling.
I saw that, but that didn't look like a hornets nests. i thought it was like a lantern.
Confession time: it didn’t work for my log home. Traps helped minimally, but it seems that an insecticide designed for crops has proven to be effective. Nuprid (May be be marketed under a different name) has eliminated my Carpenter Bee problem and seems to have thinned out Wasp traffic substantially. Now, some may take issue with using a chemical but I’m jot the least bit sorry. My house was literally being eaten away by insects and I had to preserve my home.
Day 2 and no carpenter bees. They just vanished.
All you need to watch is the part where he says “put a fake hornet 🐝 nest up”
I have been doing this for the last five years and it truly works!
I’m about to put one of these out on the porch and hope for the best.
RSHThunderbeam72 how did it go?
CassidyTTV those red wasps stayed away that’s for sure
Nice little video. A lady at church swears by this method. I’m going to try it along with a few traps for good measure. I’ve also heard that spraying vinegar is a deterrent also. Thank you.
We're coming up on our 5th season with these same to decoys and still have had no nests around our home.
Well, I’m afraid I struck out. It did not work. I did however discover an insecticide that has gotten ride of ALL wasps and the Wood bees that were destroying my house have been reduced by 99.9%, so I’m happy.
@@gregwebb7530 The first year, I had to make sure all the nests were gone and found some that I missed. Once I got rid of them, no more arrived. This is our fifth year with these decoys up and still none are nesting around our home. Just make sure you do your best to make the bags resemble a hornets nest by tucking in the corners of the bag, stuffing it with newspaper or something, and rounding the top off as best you can.
@@ronscrazystuff3793 what about rain/getting the bags wet? I dont have an eave nearby because they're eating my deck ugh
@@zoezzzarko1117 Not sure on that one. Maybe get some clear spray varnish and put a couple of coats on the outside?
This works for the same reason you stay out of the ghetto at night
Actually people in the ghetto don't bother strangers. They only bother people they actually know.
