As I just discovered your channel a couple weeks ago I have been binge watching so I did just see this house in another video. Repeat customer means you did a good job the first time. I love watching these!
That type of siding installation seems custom designed to attract wasps. All those lovely little dark entrances to the space beyond, must be a dream come true for every freshly fertilized queen! I'm guessing no type of seam sealant is used?
Watching you with the squirrels triggered the sweetest childhood memory. My Uncle Bill (Mom's oldest brother) had a couple of squirrels that would come when called to take pecans out if his hand. I was just a little girl, maybe 7 or 8 at the time, and the memory has stuck with me (I'm 60 now). Sadly, he passed away in the late 90's, and even sadder is he'll never know what a positive impact he had on my life. RIP Uncle Bill. I love you, and miss you.
You would think by now the homeowner would hire a contractor to board up that cavity with some plywood and seal it up. That would prevent another unwanted hornet infestation.
love watching your videos. We bought an older aluminum siding house in 1996 with about half asbestos siding. We recently had all the siding removed, including the asbestos. Then we had house wrap and sealing around all the windows and doors and had new mastic siding installed. Those hornets and yellow jackets ate all the wood under our siding. We had plywood in our garage we bought before the pandemic. the contractor used all that wood to replace what the hornets and bees ate. We didn't see any nests, who knows what the contractor saw on our 3 story house.
Merry Christmas Hornet King!!! I'm so glad to see a long form video put out on Christmas day!!!! What a great Christmas present!!! Keep the content coming my man. Love to see it. Hope you and yours have a great Christmas!!!!
That squirrel at the end reminds me of a big squirrel that lives in a tree near my apartment back in 1996. He would run right up to me and climb my legs. I loved it when he would do that. I miss that old squirrel. Btw great video as well.
Brother I just love your videos there a real learning experience also my favorite part is feeding the birds and the squirrels...I love it...happy holidays to you and your family
I never will forget when I was a kid my dad had a cabin on a 30 amp box and the hairdryer would blow a fuse back in the day. I didn't realize a vacuum used that much juice. Me & my dad went catfishing in a boat and I caught an upright vacuum under Bethany Bridge. My Dad laughed for a month when I pulled that into his Bass Boat.
A vacuum DOESN'T use that much juice. That's the point. Whomever built that house had a little knowledge, which parlayed into a LOT of danger. Total amateur.
Hey Hornet King, Merry Christmas! I'll never change my mind that you are one crazy individual! How in the hell you do this I'll never understand. I hate these insects every form of wasp or hornet or whatever they all need to just stop existing and here you are removing nests! Thank the powers that bee (haha) you do what you do!
This is an exceptional video because it shows a symptom of the problem. Yellowjackets being the "problem", albeit job security for you. I was more than a bit horrified and it should be a wakeup call for anyone who has that type of siding on their home. How did that house even pass electrical inspection? Garage and kitchen on the same electrical circuit? That's downright scary. And, this is your second trip out there for nest removal and that hole behind the siding above the window is still there. I'm a homeowner and this speaks volumes to me - the rest is better left unsaid.
FYI... vacuum cleaners are notorious for tripping arc fault breakers. I do electrical work and a common complaint I get is the housekeeper's vacuum cleaner always trips the breaker. My shop vac and my circular saw does it too sometimes. Old brushed motors like in most vacuum cleaners commonly have compatibility issues with arc fault breakers. Good possibility of why you kept having problems with it tripping. Two shop vacs might trip a 15 amp circuit too.
Could be worse-the garage and outdoor outlet off the front porch on our house are on the same circuit as the bathrooms in our house, so if the GFI trips, the garage or outdoor outlet don’t work either! I don’t know who the certified whackjob was who ran the wiring in our house, but it drives us NUTS on rainy nights when we’ve got our holiday light display plugged in because if we have rain and wind, the outdoor outlet (which faces west; our house faces north) is guaranteed to trip the GFI! Hopefully someday we can get that problem fixed, or at least rig a small roof or something over the outlet!
I absolutely agree. I don’t know if I can say that the safety they provide is worth the nuisance that they cause. Unfortunately they first entered National Electric Code a little over 20 years ago and their applications have only continued to expand. They’re pretty much mandatory in every 120 volt branch circuit in residential buildings. We have panels full of breakers that are $80 each instead of $5 each. I don’t like them at all.
Glad to see you are posting more content. I know it seems like the same content but we still like watching you destroy yellow jacket nests and relocating baldies and hornet nest. Probably alot extra aggravation to set up the cameras instead of just taking the nest down and the name of the game is to make money. Everbody needs to understand this is RUclips not and not be backed by Discovery , hey maybe one day . Keep them coming when can thanks for the videos and bee careful😅😅
Hey Hornet King I have a cool idea for you. You should get or build a box for a hornets nest. Get some really small cameras with really good batteries and place them in various spots inside the box and then get a queen yellow jacket or bald faced hornet and stick her in. Have a entrance for them but keep it closed until queen starts making a nest and the cams will record the making of the nest.
I remember that removal. Now I'm wondering if that nest is bigger than the nest you removed from a ceiling in a bedroom. The cone also resembled the nest from the movie Aliens.
In my limited experience, German yellowjackets have the best temperament of all the yellowjacket varieties, most of which are real SOBs. But German yellowjackets? Generally calm and relatively peaceful. Notice how they were more or less floating around you during the removal and not angrily bombarding you in a frenzy. I had a colony of German yellowjackets under my porch a couple years ago and obviously had to eradicate them, but I was almost sorry to do it they were so good-natured. Not once did one of them sting me or even try to; they just wanted to go about their business catching insect pests. If I ever have a garden in a large backyard, I'd be only too happy to provide a home for German yellowjackets because they'd be amazing for control of garden pests.
That was a huge nest of stinging little bastards lol.......An of course you amazing animals + Periwinkle......Thank you from Old stinky 🦨 flying Shoe🇺🇸
If this was addressed in the video I apologize, I’m writing this at the beginning, but I noticed all of those small combs along the perimeter, are those small paper wasp nests? I wasn’t sure if those were old paper wasp nests or that German yellow jacket nest expanding in a different way. Edited to add that I saw you did mention that they were. Would the paper wasps and the yellow jackets fight each other being so close together?
I was thinking about buying a go-pro and that's because of a couple other channels that I watch have problems with there as well. Oh meant to ask how do you get the Yellow Jackets out of your vacuum with out them surviving.
I have two gopros and really love them. The batteries die after about 8 months and need to be replaced. I only purchase actual gopro batteries as aftermarket batteries are never good. Mine are Hero 10's.
Seeing videos like this repeat supernest makes me wonder how big a nest I have in my roof somewhere. All summer seen... MANY... yellowjackets flying in and out of the corner of my roofline, but about 3 stories up and out back and they weren't bothering anybody. My dad climbed the ladder a few times and assaulted the hole with all sorts of poisons to knock down their numbers, because it was that obvious at a distance with the airborne highway of bugs, but they really had no effect on the population so we just let them go until they eventually died for the winter. These yellowjackets have come back about 4 years now but I have absolutely no interest opening the side of the house myself to see what's in there.
Do you think the homeowner will take the time and energy to fix where those bees have been in twice or are we looking at a third visit? I hope everybody has a wonderful holiday season. Kathy
So these people have had the same issue in the same spot. Did you tell them about the cutting of corners the builder did? I'm just curious why they haven't had it fixed.
Good to see your latest squirrels. The face rubs are priceless.❤️
As I just discovered your channel a couple weeks ago I have been binge watching so I did just see this house in another video. Repeat customer means you did a good job the first time. I love watching these!
Thanks! I'm glad you saw the first video before this one so you had context!
Thanks for watching!
I guess wasps like that house 😂
Apparently
Poor building job.look at the trim,no wall board,no hous wrap
Great neighborhood, good schools for their larvae, reasonable property taxes
maybe they feel safe there?
@@jdraven0890 what??
Omg the squirrel is like um...no more face rubs so flippin cute 😍

Right? Makes no sense
at this point i'd install an access door there.
I’d install an acrylic door there so I can see what is going on.
@Idkwhattoput-n4s *an automated salt-shooting sentry turret using imaging/video assisted by ai to detect and eliminate hornets.
That won't stop them though. It would act as a deterrent but they can still get in if they really want to. Wasps can even dig through concrete.

They actually returned to the same spot. Well that's good job security 😊
Crazy nest just like what happened before. These wasps didn't gave up! Merry Christmas, Honret King.
Wow 😮 I only watched the other episode last week...
Leads me to believe that they have a reliable food source in the area
Thank you for the Christmas squirrel!
Hope you had a merry Christmas and have a safe and healthy new year
That nest is an absolute unit!!!
Heh... that nest, when you pulled it out and showed the whole thing, looked more like a ukulele than an Italian hoagie. 😁
Merry Christmas Hornet King!!! I'm so glad to see a long form video put out on Christmas day!!!! What a great Christmas present!!! Keep the content coming my man. Love to see it. Hope you and yours have a great Christmas!!!!

Thank you very much for the video and I enjoyed seeing your animals and Periwinkle the squirrel.

love the squirrels! and everything else about your channel. Thanks for another video.
Glad you're enjoying the show!

You have wild squirrels visit you, that is awesome!
And I learned something about bees today, thanks for sharing with us.

It’s fascinating how those wasps build those monster nests. NGL, those nest structures are like a piece of art!
Great video HK! I just love all the birdies & of course - the squiil!❤!
Merry Christmas HK and HQ!! I hope you have yourselves a great Christmas with your little one!!! Great video!!
Thank you! Merry Christmas!
You read my mind on having me hear the buzzing and swarming of the yellow jackets. Merry Christmas. Best regards Nikita.K
Merry Christmas!
If the electrical was installed with the same care and professionalism as that window, I'm not surprised you tripped the breakers... lol
Great video! I hope you have a nice "offseason" and get some rest.
Thanks brorher! Merry Christmas!
Good to see you! :)
I hope you have a good Christmas!
Thanks! You too!
It’s good to see you don’t use sprays. Nice work!
Well, merry Christmas to me thank you for the video. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Merry Christmas!
I’m so glad I managed to find you somehow. I love watching your videos and soo cool seeing your pets growing up. Keep up the good work!😁
Thanks, Bret! I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
I'm off to have more nightmares, now. 😂
Haha! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Sweet dreams, buzz buzz! 😂

Merry Christmas HK,
Your squirrel is cool
Merry Christmas to you and your wife and animals buddy GOD BLESS

Your animals are amazing 👏
Come for the wasp removal, stay for the squiiirrel 🐿️
As a German I´m sorry we brought them to America :-) Merry christmas to Hornet King and your followers!
Keine Entschuldigung nötig 😂 in Deutschland stehen die Viecher unter Naturschutz.. 😂

That's why you never install arc-fault breakers.
I absolutely agree. I don’t know if I can say that the safety they provide is worth the nuisance that they cause. Unfortunately they first entered National Electric Code a little over 20 years ago and their applications have only continued to expand. They’re pretty much mandatory in every 120 volt branch circuit in residential buildings. We have panels full of breakers that are $80 each instead of $5 each. I don’t like them at all.
Merry Christmas wasp guy!
I hope they get this fixed this time so it doesn't happen again. Better to fix something broken rather than paying for a new bandaid every year.
Wasps will get into any spaces anywhere, but this big open cavity with no sealed sheathing is just a big welcome sign to wasps.
Just fill it with high expansion fouuuuum

Merry Christmas!
Wow it’s been 4 years already. I remember watching the first removal
Yellowjacket activity up in NW PA was brutal this year! I think the long dry spell and hot temps we had this summer probably made for some huge nests
That was a huge nest for sure! I kept waiting for you to vacuum up all the other smaller nests but nope!
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas!
Hey Hornet King I have a cool idea for you. You should get or build a box for a hornets nest. Get some really small cameras with really good batteries and place them in various spots inside the box and then get a queen yellow jacket or bald faced hornet and stick her in. Have a entrance for them but keep it closed until queen starts making a nest and the cams will record the making of the nest.
Cute animals 😂
Wow It looks like maybe they should fill the cavity with expanding foam buy filling up the cavity makes it harder to sit up nesting.
Merry Christmas Mr. King!
Merry Christmas to you too!
Merry Christmas to you and the family!
Merry Christmas!
That squirrel really trusts you....
Of course. I raised him
Merry Christmas

Wow that’s big nest
Someone count those darn holes! 😂😂😂😂
Hopefully the people who run in my comments saying "no way there's 10k there!"
😂
Whooaaa! This is wild!!!! Thanks for helping me conquer my fear. I still get chills. Merry Christmas!!! ❤
Do wasps not react to smoke like bees? Seriously curious!! ❤😊
I'm proud of you! 😁 Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas King!
Merry Christmas!
Looks like a star treak movie 😵😳🫨😭🤣🤣
i agree about hating the gopro i had the 6 and being in FL heat froze videos due to the heat
The final boss of nests 😂

Looks like a bunch of old _Polistes_ nests in that space as well...without proper sheathing, all kinds of critters can get in!
Yup 🤭
Wow I'm early thus time. Nice!
I wonder if you leave some of the envelope it will attract more wasps
When it rains it pours lol
Do you think the homeowner will take the time and energy to fix where those bees have been in twice or are we looking at a third visit?
I hope everybody has a wonderful holiday season.

She certainly knows it's a tough spot. Though she's now a widow and it's a big house to keep on top of.
Merry Christmas to you! I always wondered how many of these past clients have to call you again years later.
I have a lot of return customers! Several videos from the same houses several different years!
So these people have had the same issue in the same spot. Did you tell them about the cutting of corners the builder did? I'm just curious why they haven't had it fixed.
Do the Squirrels who eat the larve still wipe its face off on your shirt like in those older vids? That was hilarious
I thought you removed the sheeting. Insane they didn't put at the very least some insulating board.
Yes, a squirrel!!
