+superwinfieldgold True. however, there is a reason why we Americans make a difference between yellow jackets and other wasps. First, the nest of a yellow jacket is much larger and contains a lot more bugs with a lot more stingers. yellow jackets are smaller than other wasps and are usually more docile, but they are also fearless compared to other wasps and will fly right up to your face to drink out of the soda bottle you are getting ready to drink from yourself. As a result they can be very irritating. They have a body shape much closer to a honey bee (no "wasp waist") and similar coloration, so they are often mistaken for bees. They share with hornets a habit of hovering around a potential food site, so, if you happen to sit down near a nest, you can find yourself surrounded by curious yellow jackets. It is for these reasons that we differentiate between yellow jackets and other wasps. And to "step into a yellow jackets nest" is a synonym for disaster.

You guys whining in the comments do realize... THESE ARE NOT BEES, they're aggressive pests and that this is EXACTLY what any exterminator would do. Relax your little snowflake hearts. They're bugs.
Bumble bees, no problem, mud dobbers, they don't bother you, but Red wasps and yellow jackets, they will sting you just for looking at them! I paint houses for a living and I was just stung yesterday when I was climbing a ladder by a tree that had a yellow jacket nest, 4 cans of wasp spray later and there are no survivors :)
But you could have got wasp honey from them, It's a much better taste then bee honey, but not as good as hornet honey. Just reach your hand in the wasp's nest and they will give you some honey.
+5tonedFlaming0 If it hurts then they're just getting way too excited that they're pleasing their masters in a very long time. Keep your hand in there as long as you can as you will gain double the honey if you surpass 30 seconds!
+Lucas Sheard pheremones are only released by a few certain species of wasp, and I'm not certain if any american species (such as these in the video) have that ability.
+TimesTwo are you an idiot? being humane doesn't mean letting them live and giving them luxuries. having some mercy in this situation would be humane, realistically wasp spray is pretty messed up as it is pretty torturous to the wasp before it dies, but its far more humane than locking up a few hundred wasps in a small box, and just letting them dehydrate to death while in the company of other dead and dying family. I'd call this sadistic type of killing. If you think animals can't feel pain, I've got news for you... we are also animals.
+Javier Kane OK and the last person to comment pointed out humans destroy anything they find inconvenient... so you'd be happy to die in a box too then? like I said, I don't mind them being killed, I've had 3 bee nests removed from my roof because the entrance was next to my window. I'm just expressing my dislike for the method of killing. and it looks like all you people get butt hurt too much by it and assume I'm saying don't hurt the wasps and build them apartments lol
Bees I would save. Yellow jackets can pretty aggressive. Based on their door stoop location they've chosen poorly. Anyway to have vac empty into water?
I came back to my workshop one day only to find a couple of wasps building a nest near the roof, it was a miracle of nature, how they built the nest from mud, and since they hauled the mud from different places, each, I don't know how to call it, cell? chamber? grow tube?, anyway, each had a different color, ranging from brown to gray. once I've seen they were finished and ready to hatch, I sprayed the hell out of them, and the nest, just in case. I left the nest intact, and I lovingly watch it almost daily, happy about the small wonders of nature and K400 bug spray.
Never do that with the tiny underground yellow jackets. I sucked them up with a vacuum cleaner once and they came form everywhere to attack everything that moved. I think the ones trapped in the vacuum released some kind of scent into the air that brought the entire colony back to defend the hive. I should have filmed that. i was stung twice on the arm and it felt like an electric shock. Huge bite bumps after that. Luckily, it was me and not the kids.
Attention! No actual wasps were harmed in this video. Next week Matthias will show us how he constructed wooded wasp replicas from birch plywood and threaded rod.
No Doubt, there will be others who say the same as me here on this matter. If you leave those dead wasps on the ground there and you happen to come in contact with the wasps, you might still get a sting.
Joe Will Yep! I was thinking the same thing. A dead wasp/bee can still sting. The fuckers have stingers that are spring loaded, seriously! Been there, done that.
I am so glad you posted this! I have been doing this for years using a shop vac and a long pole taped to the end of the hose to keep it in the correct position. I let it run until I see no more. It doesn't take more than a few hours. When I suggest this to friends and neighbors they think I'm crazy. Well, that may be true, but at least I can show them that I'm in good company.
I went over a yellow jacket ground nest once with the mower. It's something I will not repeat. Though, I do have a bee suit which protected me while I sought vengeance.
I have never had the misfortune of doing that....but it just happened to some really good friends of ours last week. Husband and wife both got several stings, mostly to the face.
TooShyGuyKC It's not something I want to do again. I was all "La la la, ride my mower, mow the yard" and then WHOOSH, they all came flying out at me. Got 4 or 5 stings before I jumped off the mower and ran off. Ugh.
Happened to me too! Two times before I figured out where they were coming from. I swear, they follow you and don't sting until you're a good distance from the hive so you're not sure where they came from
Not weird at all. They're pests. You guys whining in the comments do realize... THESE ARE NOT BEES, they're aggressive pests and that this is EXACTLY what any exterminator would do. Relax your little snowflake hearts. They're bugs.

My uncle did something like this to get rid of bees using just a regular shop vac. He didn't think it through either so he just duck taped the end of the hose and sat it out on the curb (to wait for the next trash day). We all laugh about it because it was gone later that day so someone took it. They were in for a big surprise.
Perposterown That's great considering North America is going through a massive bee die off.....Not to sound all eco-nerd but without bees, you me and everyone else will get thin...because our food supply will die off too......
michael cochrane I know that we need bees but this was also something he did about 4 or 5 years ago and we weren't really seeing a bee die off issue then.
These aren't bees and not to change the subject but do some research....bees are dying off at an alarming rate....whole colonies are disappearing overnight....
michael cochrane Again, bees weren't in that much danger when he did this. Plus I think it might have been hornets. Also, what did you expect him to do? Just allow these bees to inhabit his house and take over and cause him to have to find a new house? They were LITERALLY INSIDE his house. He found where their nest was and got rid of them. THEY WERE INSIDE HIS HOUSE. Did you expect him to just let them live there?
As I said in my original post, I realize the issues but still, one has to start taking the big picture into account. BTW: that wasn't his house, it was his shed. In addition, if he got the queen all he'd have to do is relocate her and the rest would follow....like a bunch of drunken guys out on a Saturday night lol
Impressive! Perhaps a periodic handfull or two of fuller's earth? (I'm pretty sure a cyclone dust collector would also do wonders for the mortality rate)
"You said you've dealt with larger nests before, Wasp Slayer-sama. What did you do then?" "Smoked them out, set them on fire, drowned them on a river. Various methods. But they won't work here"
I always enjoy your videos. I had a similar problem. Used my Rigid Shop Vacuum with a couple of extra extension pipes that I got at Home Depot. Left the Vacuum run for a couple days then shut the machine off to see how many Wasps I caught after seeing multiple Wasps sucked up. All there was left was the dust of the pulverized Wasps inside my Vacuum canister. I recently used this method for a ground Wasp nest in our garden. By putting a rock next to the opening in the ground and positioning the nozzle about an inch from the rock ... I got excellent controlled suction ... and by stabalizing the extension pipes with bricks ... the hose assembly stayed securely in place and I was able to get rid of the nest.
"I'm not sure spraying raid at the hole where they came in and out would have done much" They also offer a Raid spray for wasps that foams and fills a nest and blocks the holes. WD40 is most satisfying when you can light it on fire, but burning down the building is the downside.
Add a DC electrical charge to the screen, so when the bugs touch the screen they get fried. Make sure the charge has a switch so you can turn it on and off LOL.
Draw your own comparison haha I am just pointing out that the extermination of a particular species just because you don't like them sounds somewhat familiar. ^^
Best wasp/bee killer I have found to date and it's near instantaneous with a VERY strong stream is automotive brake cleaner that comes in an aerosol can. They literally drop right out of the sky upon contact.
The Spectracide brand of wasp spray is the best as far as I can tell. I checked the active ingredient, most sprays use the same one and Spectracide has more of it and additionally has another one. Not only do they drop like you mentioned but the nozzle is made for range so you don't need to get too near em.
Very interesting, I love it when I see people do stuff like this.. utilizing what you have and using your brain for something low cost, helpful, necessary, effective and just plain cool.
I must say that I love your videos. You are so innovative and knowledgeable in the type of work that you do, and you have inspired some projects of my own. Keep up the good work. Thanks!
I worked in construction, primarily doing re-covers of building exteriors, so we were always working around existing structures and bushes and such. Lots of paper wasps and ground-nesting yellowjackets. Now a lot of contracting companies, especially the HVAC crowd, buy wasp killer by the case, but the owner where I worked was too cheap and I was too broke to buy it myself. So I researched a bit and found out that soapy water will suffocate most species in the wasp family or genus or whatever the category is. They aspirate through pores in their outer shell and the soap plugs the pores. So I started carrying a squirt gun (of the pressurized variety) clipped onto my tool belt. It works great as long as you get the right balance of soapy enough to work quickly but watery enough to easily spray. And it is WAY cheaper than commercial wasp spray! They don't die as quickly as the toxins but they do drop and struggle and act pissed but they can't do anything about it. Try it! It's fun!
Same here. I hate them, but I did feel sorry for them in the end. Starving them to death is the wrong way to deal with them. This was a large hive btw, I didn't think there would be so many of the.
cartoon80s90s should see the nest behind my house, holy crap, makes this look small. Should have video'd it. Bird flew into a where the nest was and disturbed it, honestly ive never seen anything like it. I could hear them from over 50ft away. Scary shit, sky was black with the damn things, needless to say the bird was screwed =/. I mean there must have been a few thousand of them flying around.
+v0000000000000000v The sudden decompression of the air causes enough temperature drop to freeze them? Interesting. In this case, I'd just stick that box in my 22 cubic foot outdoor freezer. I'm not sure if people up in Canada usually have freezers like that, but they're very common where I live in the Southwestern United States.
Alan Falleur I think there are similar freezers here as well but not entirely sure. also when you turn the compressed air can upside down you are forcing out the liquid phase of the gas that's been compressed inside, the sudden drop in pressure means decrease in temperature, and the liquid has a very low boiling temperature of around -70F or -55C iirc, therefore it has a similar effect to liquid nitrogen, you can scatter most household items or insects in this case at that temperature, I think some people managed to break locks with upside down air cans too lol
v0000000000000000v You know, this is a bit of amazing serendipity because just yesterday while cleaning out my shed I realized that I happen to have a Kryptonite brand bike U-lock on a bicycle that I own, which is missing its key. I threw the key away a while ago while cleaning out, not realizing the lock was still being used. (－‸ლ)
I done this with a long 1" pipe and a Dyson vacuum. It work well just needed to put the vacuum dirt collection part in some water after to make sure they were dead lol
That would have contaminated his device. Simple application of heat would probably have been enough, wasps don't tolerate high temperatures, I don't mean burning, just an electric heater for an hour or two pumped into an enclosed box would have simply baked them to death. Japanese bee's deal with those giant killer wasps by raising the temperature of the wasps body by piling on them in a giant suicidal ball of death while working their muscles. The range for life of these creatures isn't that high, and yes they'd just dry out as well, so it would have been much much faster to do it that way. So its funny that mathias didn't think of this because he's usually very clever.
***** Spraying into the blower isn't a good idea. Most of those sprays have inflammable ingredients which could be ignited by the blower's electric sparks.
Matthias, you are my absolute favorite. Don't stop doing that thing you do! Great videos. I have been a fan since day one. You deserve a television show.
I had some living in the lamp post on my front yard and I got stung on the ear when I bumped it with the mower. At night I could stand there and bang it with a stick and they would just buzz, but they wouldn't leave the hive. Definitely the best time for revenge!
One tip: You could have use some smoke from maybe a fire pit or something to make them unconciousness and then put them all togther in a bag - drive them away on a field where they can do they work again - to pollinate our fields with corn! Oh man. You are one reason why wasps and bees and stuff will die out - they are already rare because of us humans.
Soap and water. Dish detergent works well. By eliminated the surface tension, the soap and water is able to stick better to the wasp, whereas it would just fall off because of the tiny hairs.
For those that are complaining about killing wasps, you obviously have never been around or stung by one before. There is nothing nice about wasp in the spot they were at. Now if they were in middle of a field and not in direct path of a door, maybe a different story as their main diet consists of bugs/caterpillars/spiders. They do pollinate but not as much as honeybee's do, and they usually only do that to feed the queen, their young eat the liquified bugs. But either way, I do not hesitate on killing wasps. Matthias couldn't keep his smile away from this video. LOL!
Agreed, when they're near a building they're a hazard. For some reason they seem to be attracted to Alumin(i)um.... I'm not sure why but meeting one 25ft up a ladder is NO fun
I have to add that having a wasp/hornet nest anywhere near family members is a safety issue. Given all the reasons explained elsewhere in this post, it is imperative to rid the surrounding areas of these pesky little rascals and at first site. Given the chance to expand and multiply, the chance of a freak encounter only makes this worse, especially if you happen to be allergic to them. The wrong way to find out is to do nothing about them and have it be too late. And to add, me not being allergic myself, I have never found it enjoyable to be attacked by these vicious creatures because it is never at my leisure when I'm expecting it to happen. Kill them all! Kill them all with fire!!!
***** I've been the recipient of many a sting as a smaller child. I've stuck my foot into an underground nest, disturbed one behind an old rabbit cage, and inside of an old tree long I sat on. I think I was stung about 20 times. Little shits.
For those complaining of "starving" them to death. That didn't happen, they died of thirst. You could probably accelerate their demise by leaving the fan on to desiccate them more quickly. Also, have a can of starter fluid? Put a trash bag over the whole contraption, spray in some starter fluid, tie the bag closed. That will end them. It's primarily ether. Best solution? Avoid the problem in the first place by placing fake hornets nests around the perimeter. You can buy them, but I find that taking a brown paper bag, stuffing it full of plastic bags (or whatever), choke it at the throat and shape it into a hornet-nest shape then hang it up...and you are good. I have used these for 3 years now and have had nary a nest. Hornets and wasps are very territorial and will not build a nest near another.
Honestly an electric heater would have probably worked if not in conjunction with baking the unit in the sun. Japanese bee's kill those big wasps by raising the temperature by bee balling them in a suicidal hug, so the temperature threshold for life of these insects isn't that wide. Just make it nice and toasty for a few hours and they would probably all be gone.
Your evil Matthias. You could solve the rest by just plugging the hole with spray foam or silicone or something. I had some going into a hole into my house and I just siliconed it and that was the end.
No! ... If you block a primary entrance to a nest they'll tunnel through to escape and may make it through to the interior of a home. You're best bet is a wasp powder ... I have a friend that is in pest control. That stuff is amazing.
hassleoffa I Like the wasp sucking machine xl Idea I am extreamly allergic to wasps but to finish off the rest of them I also like the wasp powder idea
I dismantled and old vacuum cleaner, mounted a long hose to the inlet of the fan and made a screened box to catch the bodies. Worked like a dream. Had to clean the blades after about an hour, lost sucsion. Cost $00.00 time building .5 hrs.

Did you see any bees in this video? No, that's what i thought.
you know that wasps do the same job as bees and are more than just important for our lives you idiots
But you could have got wasp honey from them, It's a much better taste then bee honey, but not as good as hornet honey. Just reach your hand in the wasp's nest and they will give you some honey.
+Dustin Clark Yup, just plop your hand in there and they will gladly hand over every piece of wasp honey they own.
+5tonedFlaming0 If it hurts then they're just getting way too excited that they're pleasing their masters in a very long time. Keep your hand in there as long as you can as you will gain double the honey if you surpass 30 seconds!
+5tonedFlaming0 I'm kinkshaming you all.
+Dustin Clark Honey is just Bee Cum.

Funny stuff :D
Lol by crushing that massive pile of wasps released a huge amount of pheromone that warns other wasps
+Lucas Sheard A release of pheromones that large would be a sure sign to any wasp in the area to stay the fuck away from that garden.
The pheromone tells the other wasps to keep guard and attack possible enemies nearby
+Lucas Sheard except that it didnt work, also the pheromones got trapped in the box for 5 days
+Lucas Sheard pheremones are only released by a few certain species of wasp, and I'm not certain if any american species (such as these in the video) have that ability.
Good he wants that he wants wasps to leave
The sound of wasp clattering down hose must have been a very satisfying one!

I watched it, must have just skipped past that bit How about water? do you own water? because drowning is still more humane
+TimesTwo are you an idiot? being humane doesn't mean letting them live and giving them luxuries.
having some mercy in this situation would be humane, realistically wasp spray is pretty messed up as it is pretty torturous to the wasp before it dies, but its far more humane than locking up a few hundred wasps in a small box, and just letting them dehydrate to death while in the company of other dead and dying family. I'd call this sadistic type of killing.

+Sunil Patel Dude, they're wasps not baby raccoons or something....These fuckers will sting everything you know and love.
+Javier Kane OK and the last person to comment pointed out humans destroy anything they find inconvenient... so you'd be happy to die in a box too then?
like I said, I don't mind them being killed, I've had 3 bee nests removed from my roof because the entrance was next to my window. I'm just expressing my dislike for the method of killing.
and it looks like all you people get butt hurt too much by it and assume I'm saying don't hurt the wasps and build them apartments lol
Bees I would save. Yellow jackets can pretty aggressive. Based on their door stoop location they've chosen poorly. Anyway to have vac empty into water?
Yes indeed. In fact, for some reason I could see Matthias being a beekeeper. Or maybe just because he could build the beehives, LOL.
James Campbell Bees are fine - they pollinate stuff. Wasps, on the other hand, I have no compunction in killing mercilessly.

@@eavyeavy2864 lol
I came back to my workshop one day only to find a couple of wasps building a nest near the roof, it was a miracle of nature, how they built the nest from mud, and since they hauled the mud from different places, each, I don't know how to call it, cell? chamber? grow tube?, anyway, each had a different color, ranging from brown to gray. once I've seen they were finished and ready to hatch, I sprayed the hell out of them, and the nest, just in case. I left the nest intact, and I lovingly watch it almost daily, happy about the small wonders of nature and K400 bug spray.
Never do that with the tiny underground yellow jackets. I sucked them up with a vacuum cleaner once and they came form everywhere to attack everything that moved. I think the ones trapped in the vacuum released some kind of scent into the air that brought the entire colony back to defend the hive. I should have filmed that. i was stung twice on the arm and it felt like an electric shock. Huge bite bumps after that. Luckily, it was me and not the kids.

Maybe the vacuum wasn't strong enough or not sealed correctly?

Attention!
No actual wasps were harmed in this video. Next week Matthias will show us how he constructed wooded wasp replicas from birch plywood and threaded rod.
why not
No Doubt, there will be others who say the same as me here on this matter. If you leave those dead wasps on the ground there and you happen to come in contact with the wasps, you might still get a sting.
True story! I have seen it happen.
Joe Will Yep! I was thinking the same thing. A dead wasp/bee can still sting. The fuckers have stingers that are spring loaded, seriously! Been there, done that.
Dude how can you get so close without a bee suit? I'm surprised they all didn't attack you at once
Lol he just don’t give ******

Bee suit is not good for wasp, you need a special suit that has a thicker fabric.
Single Hornet: *Stung him
**So u have choosen **-death-** genocide*
I am so glad you posted this! I have been doing this for years using a shop vac and a long pole taped to the end of the hose to keep it in the correct position. I let it run until I see no more. It doesn't take more than a few hours. When I suggest this to friends and neighbors they think I'm crazy. Well, that may be true, but at least I can show them that I'm in good company.
I went over a yellow jacket ground nest once with the mower. It's something I will not repeat.
Though, I do have a bee suit which protected me while I sought vengeance.
I have never had the misfortune of doing that....but it just happened to some really good friends of ours last week. Husband and wife both got several stings, mostly to the face.
TooShyGuyKC It's not something I want to do again. I was all "La la la, ride my mower, mow the yard" and then WHOOSH, they all came flying out at me. Got 4 or 5 stings before I jumped off the mower and ran off. Ugh.
Happened to me too! Two times before I figured out where they were coming from. I swear, they follow you and don't sting until you're a good distance from the hive so you're not sure where they came from
The sound of the wasps tumbling down the pipe - put that on a loop for some supreme ASMR.
that was just weird. "HEY LOOK A LIVE ONE- STOMP!"
Not weird at all. They're pests. You guys whining in the comments do realize... THESE ARE NOT BEES, they're aggressive pests and that this is EXACTLY what any exterminator would do. Relax your little snowflake hearts. They're bugs.

My uncle did something like this to get rid of bees using just a regular shop vac. He didn't think it through either so he just duck taped the end of the hose and sat it out on the curb (to wait for the next trash day).
We all laugh about it because it was gone later that day so someone took it.
They were in for a big surprise.
Perposterown That's great considering North America is going through a massive bee die off.....Not to sound all eco-nerd but without bees, you me and everyone else will get thin...because our food supply will die off too......
michael cochrane I know that we need bees but this was also something he did about 4 or 5 years ago and we weren't really seeing a bee die off issue then.
These aren't bees and not to change the subject but do some research....bees are dying off at an alarming rate....whole colonies are disappearing overnight....
michael cochrane Again, bees weren't in that much danger when he did this. Plus I think it might have been hornets.
Also, what did you expect him to do? Just allow these bees to inhabit his house and take over and cause him to have to find a new house? They were LITERALLY INSIDE his house. He found where their nest was and got rid of them. THEY WERE INSIDE HIS HOUSE. Did you expect him to just let them live there?
As I said in my original post, I realize the issues but still, one has to start taking the big picture into account.
BTW: that wasn't his house, it was his shed.
In addition, if he got the queen all he'd have to do is relocate her and the rest would follow....like a bunch of drunken guys out on a Saturday night lol
I would be all suited up when taking that apart! You the man!

I would just loosen the lid, tie a long string to it, pull, then run like a sissy!
"You said you've dealt with larger nests before, Wasp Slayer-sama. What did you do then?"
"Smoked them out, set them on fire, drowned them on a river. Various methods. But they won't work here"
I always enjoy your videos.
I had a similar problem. Used my Rigid Shop Vacuum with a couple of extra extension pipes that I got at Home Depot.
Left the Vacuum run for a couple days then shut the machine off to see how many Wasps I caught after seeing multiple Wasps sucked up. All there was left was the dust of the pulverized Wasps inside my Vacuum canister.
I recently used this method for a ground Wasp nest in our garden. By putting a rock next to the opening in the ground and positioning the nozzle about an inch from the rock ... I got excellent controlled suction ... and by stabalizing the extension pipes with bricks ... the hose assembly stayed securely in place and I was able to get rid of the nest.
"I'm not sure spraying raid at the hole where they came in and out would have done much" They also offer a Raid spray for wasps that foams and fills a nest and blocks the holes.
WD40 is most satisfying when you can light it on fire, but burning down the building is the downside.
Add a DC electrical charge to the screen, so when the bugs touch the screen they get fried. Make sure the charge has a switch so you can turn it on and off LOL.
I hate wasps , I had a horrible experience with wasps when I was 11 . You are crazy and very brave !
That's actually quite clever because any wasps coming back with food dont make it in so most/all of the larva would starve

Keebs
WTF is the matter with you? If you really see a comparison between taking out a wasp infestation and Nazi genocide, please get some therapy.
Draw your own comparison haha I am just pointing out that the extermination of a particular species just because you don't like them sounds somewhat familiar. ^^
Keebs
Exactly as I said, drawing a comparison.
Best wasp/bee killer I have found to date and it's near instantaneous with a VERY strong stream is automotive brake cleaner that comes in an aerosol can. They literally drop right out of the sky upon contact.
Bees are our friends, but wasps are a pain.
I know, I garden so I leave the bees alone. However, I have a huge wasp problem every year under my deck.
The Spectracide brand of wasp spray is the best as far as I can tell. I checked the active ingredient, most sprays use the same one and Spectracide has more of it and additionally has another one. Not only do they drop like you mentioned but the nozzle is made for range so you don't need to get too near em.
Liquid nitrogen.
neutered10mm fire also works well, the nest is paper after all!
Very interesting, I love it when I see people do stuff like this.. utilizing what you have and using your brain for something low cost, helpful, necessary, effective and just plain cool.
I must say that I love your videos. You are so innovative and knowledgeable in the type of work that you do, and you have inspired some projects of my own. Keep up the good work. Thanks!
It was so satisfying to hear wasps hit the tube.
I worked in construction, primarily doing re-covers of building exteriors, so we were always working around existing structures and bushes and such. Lots of paper wasps and ground-nesting yellowjackets. Now a lot of contracting companies, especially the HVAC crowd, buy wasp killer by the case, but the owner where I worked was too cheap and I was too broke to buy it myself. So I researched a bit and found out that soapy water will suffocate most species in the wasp family or genus or whatever the category is. They aspirate through pores in their outer shell and the soap plugs the pores.
So I started carrying a squirt gun (of the pressurized variety) clipped onto my tool belt. It works great as long as you get the right balance of soapy enough to work quickly but watery enough to easily spray. And it is WAY cheaper than commercial wasp spray! They don't die as quickly as the toxins but they do drop and struggle and act pissed but they can't do anything about it. Try it! It's fun!
the way they just fly into it is just too hilarious 😂😂😂
That was extremely satisfying to watch.
i hate wasps, for i almost felt sad when they died for some reason. perhaps i found starving them to death was inhumane. i dont know
Same here. I hate them, but I did feel sorry for them in the end. Starving them to death is the wrong way to deal with them. This was a large hive btw, I didn't think there would be so many of the.
cartoon80s90s JamesPlaysGames95 I once encountered a Yellow jacket nest while mowing.. I'm Not in the least bit sad.
cartoon80s90s should see the nest behind my house, holy crap, makes this look small. Should have video'd it. Bird flew into a where the nest was and disturbed it, honestly ive never seen anything like it. I could hear them from over 50ft away. Scary shit, sky was black with the damn things, needless to say the bird was screwed =/. I mean there must have been a few thousand of them flying around.
You wont feel sad for them when they sting your ass, that shit hurts.
If it's any consolation, Wasps don't feel pain. They are fueled purely by hatred for all living things.
The best way to kill insects like that is to freeze them. If you can get the prison small enough to fit inside your freezer, you're in business.
Alan Falleur That is a stylish method - love it.
+Alan Falleur freezing insects with a can of upside down compressed air is awesome, with a gentle tap their legs will just fall off
+v0000000000000000v The sudden decompression of the air causes enough temperature drop to freeze them? Interesting.
In this case, I'd just stick that box in my 22 cubic foot outdoor freezer. I'm not sure if people up in Canada usually have freezers like that, but they're very common where I live in the Southwestern United States.
Alan Falleur I think there are similar freezers here as well but not entirely sure. also when you turn the compressed air can upside down you are forcing out the liquid phase of the gas that's been compressed inside, the sudden drop in pressure means decrease in temperature, and the liquid has a very low boiling temperature of around -70F or -55C iirc, therefore it has a similar effect to liquid nitrogen, you can scatter most household items or insects in this case at that temperature, I think some people managed to break locks with upside down air cans too lol
v0000000000000000v You know, this is a bit of amazing serendipity because just yesterday while cleaning out my shed I realized that I happen to have a Kryptonite brand bike U-lock on a bicycle that I own, which is missing its key. I threw the key away a while ago while cleaning out, not realizing the lock was still being used.
(－‸ლ)
I done this with a long 1" pipe and a Dyson vacuum. It work well just needed to put the vacuum dirt collection part in some water after to make sure they were dead lol
+Rich ard I still vote for battery acid!
My Dyson's full of spiders.

The evil smile he had was priceless
I gather bug spray into the blower wouldn't kill them?
He didn't have any bug spray
ArtisanTony Oh! Hey Tony! I'd recognise that profile pic anywhere!
That would have contaminated his device.
Simple application of heat would probably have been enough, wasps don't tolerate high temperatures, I don't mean burning, just an electric heater for an hour or two pumped into an enclosed box would have simply baked them to death. Japanese bee's deal with those giant killer wasps by raising the temperature of the wasps body by piling on them in a giant suicidal ball of death while working their muscles. The range for life of these creatures isn't that high, and yes they'd just dry out as well, so it would have been much much faster to do it that way. So its funny that mathias didn't think of this because he's usually very clever.
ArtisanTony Hah, well I'm not entirely sure what chemicals are in bug bomb, but I prefer as little contact with that stuff as possible:P
***** Spraying into the blower isn't a good idea. Most of those sprays have inflammable ingredients which could be ignited by the blower's electric sparks.
Matthias, you are my absolute favorite. Don't stop doing that thing you do! Great videos. I have been a fan since day one. You deserve a television show.
Imagine if they were all playing dead and waiting for the opportunity to strike back.
LOL the XL made it so much better! Great idea!! Took care of the problem without using pesticides. Smart and effective!!
"There's one live one, better do something about that" Curb stomps it, then continues to stomp the rest of them
Once I locate them, I wait until night time then nuke the nest with a can of wasp spray. That does it for me.
btw, they looked like Yellow Jackets to me. They are the really bad wasps where we live.
I had some living in the lamp post on my front yard and I got stung on the ear when I bumped it with the mower. At night I could stand there and bang it with a stick and they would just buzz, but they wouldn't leave the hive. Definitely the best time for revenge!
Hitting them with a full cup of dish soapy water is a *lot* cheaper than a can of wasp spray, and kills them just as quick if not quicker.
Ron Briz I love you for that! That's exactly what we do too! We spray the hell out of them and then get rid of the nest!
Ron Briz But nuking them in the day when they can try to fight back is so much more fun. Where's the sport in killing them while they're asleep?
wasp sucking asmr sounds and tribal wasp stomping rituals, this video has it all
One tip:
You could have use some smoke from maybe a fire pit or something to make them unconciousness and then put them all togther in a bag - drive them away on a field where they can do they work again - to pollinate our fields with corn! Oh man.
You are one reason why wasps and bees and stuff will die out - they are already rare because of us humans.
Lol, they are not going extinct
Actually they are dying off at unprecedented rates and bees are literally as vital to farming as soil
Lol, I could go outside and find a bee if I wanted too. They are not extinct lol
actually wasps dont do shit, only bees pollunate
If they were actually going extinct then ppl would actually do something to stop it but since they are not, no one is doing anything obvi
Soap and water. Dish detergent works well. By eliminated the surface tension, the soap and water is able to stick better to the wasp, whereas it would just fall off because of the tiny hairs.
Wasp: haha funny poke go brrr
Guy: so anyways thats how i killed an entire colleny
You are an engineer by nature!👍🏻
Hornet: Finally, I am free! After 5 long days!
*Gets stepped on immediately.*
For those that are complaining about killing wasps, you obviously have never been around or stung by one before. There is nothing nice about wasp in the spot they were at. Now if they were in middle of a field and not in direct path of a door, maybe a different story as their main diet consists of bugs/caterpillars/spiders. They do pollinate but not as much as honeybee's do, and they usually only do that to feed the queen, their young eat the liquified bugs. But either way, I do not hesitate on killing wasps. Matthias couldn't keep his smile away from this video. LOL!
Agreed, when they're near a building they're a hazard. For some reason they seem to be attracted to Alumin(i)um.... I'm not sure why but meeting one 25ft up a ladder is NO fun
I have to add that having a wasp/hornet nest anywhere near family members is a safety issue. Given all the reasons explained elsewhere in this post, it is imperative to rid the surrounding areas of these pesky little rascals and at first site. Given the chance to expand and multiply, the chance of a freak encounter only makes this worse, especially if you happen to be allergic to them. The wrong way to find out is to do nothing about them and have it be too late. And to add, me not being allergic myself, I have never found it enjoyable to be attacked by these vicious creatures because it is never at my leisure when I'm expecting it to happen. Kill them all! Kill them all with fire!!!
***** I've been the recipient of many a sting as a smaller child. I've stuck my foot into an underground nest, disturbed one behind an old rabbit cage, and inside of an old tree long I sat on. I think I was stung about 20 times. Little shits.
My brother and i used airsoft guns on a massive killer bee hive once....not our best idea....
He should have kept them and released them into a movie theater at the next bee movie screening XD
You re-invented the wheel. I have used a shop vac, soapy water and a hose for years. I spent 20 minutes setting it up and they were dead instantly.
For those complaining of "starving" them to death. That didn't happen, they died of thirst. You could probably accelerate their demise by leaving the fan on to desiccate them more quickly.
Also, have a can of starter fluid? Put a trash bag over the whole contraption, spray in some starter fluid, tie the bag closed. That will end them. It's primarily ether.
Best solution? Avoid the problem in the first place by placing fake hornets nests around the perimeter. You can buy them, but I find that taking a brown paper bag, stuffing it full of plastic bags (or whatever), choke it at the throat and shape it into a hornet-nest shape then hang it up...and you are good. I have used these for 3 years now and have had nary a nest. Hornets and wasps are very territorial and will not build a nest near another.
I did not know that - great information!
Honestly an electric heater would have probably worked if not in conjunction with baking the unit in the sun. Japanese bee's kill those big wasps by raising the temperature by bee balling them in a suicidal hug, so the temperature threshold for life of these insects isn't that wide. Just make it nice and toasty for a few hours and they would probably all be gone.
Frankly, douse em in lighter fluid and set them on fire. you can always build a new blower

Your evil Matthias. You could solve the rest by just plugging the hole with spray foam or silicone or something. I had some going into a hole into my house and I just siliconed it and that was the end.
No! ... If you block a primary entrance to a nest they'll tunnel through to escape and may make it through to the interior of a home. You're best bet is a wasp powder ... I have a friend that is in pest control. That stuff is amazing.
