Should get a battery operated camera that you can hang outside on inside front door and watch your cabin on an app every day. Peace of Mind is well worth it.
It's always a great feeling when you go to your cabin and nothing has been messed with or destroyed. I'm in town today so I get to watch a few videos and catch up. Can't watch vids at my cabin anymore. Our signal is garbage up there. Glad you're doing well. All the best buddy.
That was great my love you sure can run. GOD BLESS from New Zealand. My husband and I really enjoy you lovie we both in our 70ties. Thank you for sharing with us.
Yesssss, everything the way you left it. That's a huge relief. I'm so grateful there was no mess for you to fix. Good to see you Kyle. Hope your family and your sweet fiance's family are all healthy. Beeeee, careful Kyle. A hornets bite feels like a pointed sledgehammer when they hit.
Very nice heading down that lush green trail. Cabin looks great. A word about hornets: late at night and early in the morning they are more calmer or lethargic. I wait till just as the sunlight starts to break. If you have hornet spray hit them at that time. If not knock them down p and stomp on them. My buddy knocked his down right into an open barrel in a plastic bag. Sealed it up and gone. Leaving the area for a bit is a good idea in your case too. Now, afterwards, fill a small plastic grocery bag with other bags, etc. so it’s round like a hornets nest. Hang where you had one. It will keep them away and also most bore bees that would love your cabin to eat into. The hornets think it’s a different group and will stay away. By the way, nice chairs. They look like maple. Wood pile looks great too. By the time you see this comment you are probably burning into it.
40 deg.below 0 F !!! Never seen that kind of cold! Viewing from southwest Vancouver Island in Canada where the surrounding Pacific ocean keeps it warmer in winter and cooler in summer!CHEERS
It’s too bad you aren’t here in Idaho, we own a masticating company - my husband has equipment that could chew a path thru the woods right to the door of your cabin and leave a nice mulch path. Beautiful land and nice cabin!
Hi Kyle, I have dealt with so many bees nest in our 30 years living in our home. We have a huge brick wall with a Fireplace inserted into the wall that also blows heat into the family room. But this time we had to call the pros . The bees were getting in from the brick chimney attached to the side of the house. I had to pack up our baby Son and go stay at my Mother's house for about 3 days. And my husband stayed with the exterminator our dog was in the car to be safe. The exterminator said the hive was so big there were generations in it. After he sprayed he left and my husband went to his parents house with our dog for 3 days. When we got home on the 4th day my husband had to caulk the brick chimney outside and I had to vacuum up dead bees in the house. Not a fun job there were little bees big bees and queen bees. After that we had 2 nest in the ground on the front lawn. My husband pushed the lawn mower over it next thing he was in the street taking off his shoes and socks he was stung over 10 times and it hurt but thankfully he didn't get sick. Then I ran over one with the lawn mower by our flag pole and I had to rip my shirt off I had like 2 under my shirt thank goodness they didn't sting me. So when you said you were bringing back Raid I said NO Raid is for insects. Best product ever for bees, wasps it's called Seven Dust it's only like $10 or cheaper. It is a white powder. All you have to do is get the powder on some of the bees and when they go back into the nest it will kill all of the bees. The ones that don't get killed will hang around the nest area for a few days then eventually leave. They might still be in the nest on the ground when you get back to the Cabin. And you can just throw some white dust on them. Good Luck and be careful when you come back to the Cabin. 😊💛 Stay Safe everyone!
I know you probably have thought of this but a 4x4 ATV...Would be great to have....Either trailer it in or build a shed to store it in....I think it would be a great investment.....
I have removed a hornet/wasp nest with a unique method. You can argue it’s not the safest, but we cut it down from the tree into a garbage bag that someone was holding a few feet below. As soon as it landed in the bag, we closed it up real tight. We then threw it in the bonfire. Never got stung, and didn’t have any angry hornets flying around us after a nest bashes into the ground like the way you did it. Don’t worry about it though, you were alone, and didn’t get stung. So that’s a success!! Good luck this winter and enjoy it!!
Great! A new video :) Im going up to the cabin tomorrow. Im always nervous when I go back to the cabin after even a few weeks of not going. Im scared of finding something bad. The worst would be that someone found it, or went in. But nothing yet, had two wasp nests I had to take care of though!
I know how you feel. I always worry about the cabin when I'm not there. It takes so much work to build one I would hate to see it recked by someone or something.
Glad you got some time off to head back to the cabin! Relieved that everything was as you left it. I've wondered how summer/works been treating you. Gotta say I'm looking forward to you being back at the cabin in October! Nice to have a few videos to tide us over until then. Stay safe & be careful especially at work.
It was great to see you back on with the new video. Glad the cabin was all in order, except for the bees squatting on your eaves. Hope to see another video soon.
Kyle is was so good to see a video, have missed them, hope your job is going well and your safe from the covid, looking forward to your return with regular videos, hopefully we will have a nice fall and you can have a productive winter at the cabin!
So glad to see you Kyle, I am glad you didn’t get stung. Bring back Raid and also a can of hairspray in case they ever get inside. The hairspray makes their wings stiff and they drop to the floor. But you look good and so does the cabin.
I'd rather have the wasp & hornet spray that lets me stand 20' away. For inside, a fly swatter, that everyone should have anyway. There's a lot of places where I would NOT want to coat with hairspray, especially in my kitchen.
Good for you, Kyle. Nice job with those unwelcome lodgers! Not too much longer, and you'll be free for the best time of the year! Thanks for sharing these episodes with the rest of us. Cheers to you from lake Ontario, New York...
Lesson about Bees & Wasps is to ' tackle ' them early morning or when temperatures are low as can be cause then they're kinda slow on their movements giving you a much better headstart. Midday is looking for trouble with them 🤣.
Pieter bezuidenhout-Another trick is to stuff a small paper bag with newspaper and hang it close to the nest.The hornets will think it's another nest and won't go near it.
That was a wonderful video, Kyle! How amazing to see everything in the full bloom of summer when we are so used to the snow and ice. Isn’t nature with its seasons awesome! Glad you didn’t get stung. Stay safe and well during the rest of the summer. Roll on the Fall and the Winter.
Was so happy to see a post. I know you work in the summer so you can spend the winter at the cabin. Cool chairs for a buck. Take care hope to see you again soon
Very cool!! I lived briefly off the grid in Michigan's U.P., and of the many lessons I learned, to make a long story short, first, don't run when dealing with wasps; that movement attracts them and they can fly faster than a human can run. Second, when spraying them move in slowly and give them a short burst from underneath directly into the nest, that maximizes use of the chemical on the target and lessens the chance of collateral damage to other insects and animals that eat insects, so be certain to clean up after the battle. lol
Awesome shot of you running from the bees! An ATV would be awesome but they are expensive. I've hauled an entire cabin on mine up a mountain but I did it a small amount at a time of course.
You may want to use sky blue paint on your over hang the bees will think it is sky. The grand hotel on mackinaw island uses it on their porch to keep birds and bees from settling just a thought
A fire extinguisher will blow a hornet nest apart. The force that comes out and the powder covers them.. They just drop. Never got stung using a fire extinguisher. My uncle showed me that.
I just found your channel today have been setting for hours watching all your videos I'm older retired but was born up in your part of the country don't remember much 6 years old when I left Gilbert Minnesota born in Virginia now I live in south west Missouri table rock lake Near bass pros headquarters in Springfield You live my dream Maybe someday I'll make it back north but for now warm winner's open lake and fishing
Awesome ..... it’s funny how wasps or bees came make a guy fun faster........man you could make a road trail so you could take supplies in the summer . Take it slow in .....take small stuff down... trees stumps........ just a thought......it would be fun to take that suv back there......not a road but a trail for you .....measure your vehicle you might beagle to do it.
Have you thought about renting a brush hog? Help clear your trail better and around the cabin. Possibly even the side of your road. You could make your access more accessible. Just a thought. Thanks Kyle. Nice to see you filming again.
I was one of your first subscribers and it was that video of you hauling your first stove in that definitely won my respect. Maybe rig something up from a couple of old bicycle wheels and make a 2x4 frame to haul the next stove in. The bike wheels are large enough to roll over rough terrain and the 2x4s can reused for something else once you get there. Good luck and stay safe.
This is a great idea! They use a very similar two-wheeler wire "grocery cart" in downtown center City Philly when people have to walk 10 blocks to the ACME to do food shopping. They put several bags in there and pull the thing home. I understand that some crafty seniors use them when they live in a apartment complex -- they park their car, put their grocery bags in the two-wheeler from the trunk and haul it back to their pad. I always thought that infantry squads should do the same thing, with some pretty large wheels and carry medical equipment and extra ammo with them, rather than humping it.
John Thompson yeah I’ve seen the northwoodsman1 idea with the bike frames however I was thinking that maybe something a little less bulky for Kyles situation-he’s got a rougher terrain to cover and two wheels might be a bit more maneuverable. Kyle maybe able to adapt the northwoodsmans idea though.
GREAT to see you back at the cabin, Kyle. Hotter than heck over here on the GFT also. Thunderstorm just came through and dropped the temp from 90 to 68. Was in Yellowknife last year wife and I like to go even further north in the summer. This "thing we all have" has put a damper on travel. Might want to try some metal sheeting to skid that stove. Be careful of your back.
What ya need to bring in and keep there is a walk-behind Sickle-bar brush cutter and establish a path big enough for your rig. then you'll be able to maintain it as needed. Also if you are in Bear country you should be either packing a rifle like a 30-06 and a sidearm like a .357 or a 45 Lc.
I have an ATV with a track kit (Mattracks) on it, and it is great all year, and rarely gets stuck in snow. If you get stopped, you can just back up and make another run at it. They are a bit expensive, but I have seen them used for not much more than a good snowmobile. A snowmobile is only useful for 5 months at best and then you have to store it.
Hi Kyle. Holy cow, is that path ever different in summer. You will be glad to have several months worth of firewood available. You have some good advice here about taking care of those hornets. (I probably shouldn’t laugh at you running from the hornets...🤣). You need an ATV with a trailer and a plow, in my humble opinion...and several other folks. Staying tuned. Be well.
I highly recommend Raid wasp spray. Keep a couple of cans on hand at all times. Also, have you considered building some horses for peeling your logs? I spent a summer peeling logs when I was 18 and having the logs up off the ground made it a lot easier on my back.
Cool but forget the Raid. Use Pine Sol diluted 50/50 with water then spray it on the nest or dump a bucket of it on any ground nests. Believe it or not the fumes alone kill stinging insects really, really well, but oddly enough won't as easily kill other bugs.
I have a few questions. This is 40 acres. Do you have survey markings? Where is the cabin in relations to where you have to park? Clear cutting the trail from the cabin in the direction of where you park is ideal. I thought I read a comment that you have a permit for a road? Is this road permit to the cabin? If so then when do you plan on building this road to your cabin? The area around your cabin should be enlarged and you should build many more smaller sized buildings so that you can use them as other things like storage. Your wood pile could use a nice roof and some sort of raised floor. Log splitter will really help speed up the processing time as well. The investment and not having to worry about heat really comes in handy. This also allows you to have years more of wood. Invest in a dozen of fire extinguishers.
Happy to see every thing checks out okay at your cabin. I wouldn't be surprised if you get another hornet nest by the time you make it back there again. I don't like those hornets much but usually , if you leave them alone they leave you alone. Now those stinking deer flies are another story. They Never leave you alone. Those things drive you nuts. Be careful working in this heat Kyle. See ya next time.
Kyle if you have no cell service and no phones nearby...I hope you have good first aid supply...what would you do if you needed a hospital? I'm also hoping to move out to rural woods but FIRST I'm buying a dog that can kill snakes. I dont know if there are snakes out by your cabin but a snake bite can be just as deadly as a bear attack. Jack Russell terriers are very good snake killers. Also mint is good for keeping spiders and mice out of homes. I use cedar and eucalyptus essential oils to keep flies and mosquitoes away. My daughter is almost 20 and I'm hoping to buy land and build a cabin for us soon because cities are too dangerous. We live just outside of atlantic city in a suburb.... I'm going to show her your channel & I hope she will learn. Please be careful out there by yourself.
@@jefflee5047 That's good to know but just in case....a dog is a great line of defense! I have a child Kyle's age and I hope he has supplies and knowledge if he ever has a true medical situation while being out there alone. It's just good to have supplies in days like these when it seems things are just crazy.
Easiest way to get rid of hornets’ nest is to quietly and calmly grab it slowly. Inside a small garbage bag. Once removed and sealed in the bag, you can bring them elsewhere or simply let them suffocate in the bag.
A success, hoping that they don't remake that.!!! You just knocked down the nest. All of the hornets are still there. They will for sure rebuild, because you made them such a great place. You could use some of that great spray sealant foam to encapsulate the hive. That way only the scout / foragers will be survivors. They too can restart a paper nest, and one xan morph into an egg laying queen. Wasp spray just doesn't seem to have the instant killing effects needed to spray without getting stung. Other things work better, like stainless steel spray polish, or Tilex tile cleaner, which has lye in it. Those kill hornets instantly. Feet up, dead... before they hit the ground. Wear protective hat and clothing for protection from fast guards that didn't get a dose at first instant of attack. Running is good,... but be aware, they attack the motion as being the enemy.
grab a few mouse traps with that raid. put them on the out side edges. great vid. cant wait till you're up there this winter. if you need you help let me know.
Might cost a bit but rent yourself a skidder and a ground shark mower and make yourself a trail up to your cabin, easier to get to bad part it is easier for anyone to get to as well
Awesome channel! Just binge watched ya all weekend ! Don’t know if you guys wer ever gonna hunt with Skeeter, but I think it would be kool to see some training you do with him...

I almost always have a 12 gauge with slugs with me. I have a 10mm I carry most of the time as well.
Home Depot sells a foam wasp killer. It smothers them inside and dries the hive out.

(I probably shouldn’t laugh at you running from the hornets...🤣). You need an ATV with a trailer and a plow, in my humble opinion...and several other folks.
Staying tuned. Be well.
I highly recommend Raid wasp spray. Keep a couple of cans on hand at all times. Also, have you considered building some horses for peeling your logs? I spent a summer peeling logs when I was 18 and having the logs up off the ground made it a lot easier on my back.
You can get free gravel sometimes on Craigslist to build that path up so it wouldn't be so hard to get things to your cabin
Deer flies? Oh, yes...those damned things HURT. I often wonder why Noah didn't swat those two deer flies...(those two mosquitos, too)
hilarious! i love you videos, maybe you should get a dash cam kinda deal for when youre driving back
Cool but forget the Raid. Use Pine Sol diluted 50/50 with water then spray it on the nest or dump a bucket of it on any ground nests. Believe it or not the fumes alone kill stinging insects really, really well, but oddly enough won't as easily kill other bugs.
Good to see ya bloke, look'n forward to more vids :-)
Thanks buddy I'm looking forward to making more
I have a few questions.
This is 40 acres. Do you have survey markings? Where is the cabin in relations to where you have to park? Clear cutting the trail from the cabin in the direction of where you park is ideal. I thought I read a comment that you have a permit for a road? Is this road permit to the cabin? If so then when do you plan on building this road to your cabin? The area around your cabin should be enlarged and you should build many more smaller sized buildings so that you can use them as other things like storage. Your wood pile could use a nice roof and some sort of raised floor. Log splitter will really help speed up the processing time as well. The investment and not having to worry about heat really comes in handy. This also allows you to have years more of wood. Invest in a dozen of fire extinguishers.
Surprised you didn't have to lubricate that padlock before opening it.
Great to see you back!
Hahaha thats a good one
Like the filming style!
Bet the ticks love you
Happy to see every thing checks out okay at your cabin. I wouldn't be surprised if you get another hornet nest by the time you make it back there again. I don't like those hornets much but usually , if you leave them alone they leave you alone. Now those stinking deer flies are another story. They Never leave you alone. Those things drive you nuts. Be careful working in this heat Kyle. See ya next time.
Flex seal is great stuff to use.
About the only thing more painful than a pissed-off hornet is a pissed-off woman.
Kyle if you have no cell service and no phones nearby...I hope you have good first aid supply...what would you do if you needed a hospital? I'm also hoping to move out to rural woods but FIRST I'm buying a dog that can kill snakes. I dont know if there are snakes out by your cabin but a snake bite can be just as deadly as a bear attack. Jack Russell terriers are very good snake killers. Also mint is good for keeping spiders and mice out of homes. I use cedar and eucalyptus essential oils to keep flies and mosquitoes away. My daughter is almost 20 and I'm hoping to buy land and build a cabin for us soon because cities are too dangerous. We live just outside of atlantic city in a suburb.... I'm going to show her your channel & I hope she will learn. Please be careful out there by yourself.
liz parsons the only poisonous snakes in Minnesota are 250+ miles south of Kyles cabin.
@@jefflee5047 That's good to know but just in case....a dog is a great line of defense! I have a child Kyle's age and I hope he has supplies and knowledge if he ever has a true medical situation while being out there alone. It's just good to have supplies in days like these when it seems things are just crazy.
Easiest way to get rid of hornets’ nest is to quietly and calmly grab it slowly. Inside a small garbage bag. Once removed and sealed in the bag, you can bring them elsewhere or simply let them suffocate in the bag.
Yay Kyle's back!
I use vapour barrier to cover my firewood, lasts longer than a tarp,
Awesome setup. Sub'd.
A success, hoping that they don't remake that.!!! You just knocked down the nest. All of the hornets are still there. They will for sure rebuild, because you made them such a great place. You could use some of that great spray sealant foam to encapsulate the hive. That way only the scout / foragers will be survivors. They too can restart a paper nest, and one xan morph into an egg laying queen. Wasp spray just doesn't seem to have the instant killing effects needed to spray without getting stung. Other things work better, like stainless steel spray polish, or Tilex tile cleaner, which has lye in it. Those kill hornets instantly. Feet up, dead... before they hit the ground. Wear protective hat and clothing for protection from fast guards that didn't get a dose at first instant of attack. Running is good,... but be aware, they attack the motion as being the enemy.
They weren't a "problem" until you noticed them. Therefore the "problem" is your mind and not the hornets!
Fill that hornet hive with foam sealant. 🤣
grab a few mouse traps with that raid. put them on the out side edges. great vid. cant wait till you're up there this winter. if you need you help let me know.
Might cost a bit but rent yourself a skidder and a ground shark mower and make yourself a trail up to your cabin, easier to get to bad part it is easier for anyone to get to as well
Awesome channel! Just binge watched ya all weekend ! Don’t know if you guys wer ever gonna hunt with Skeeter, but I think it would be kool to see some training you do with him...
Hope a screen in porch is in the making !
