How "NOT" to deal with a in-ground Wasp/Hornet nest

- Опубликовано: 3 апр 2016
- I forgot to upload this video from last summer, or maybe..... I just wanted to forget about the whole "how-to video" incident entirely. I intended to film this as DIY environmentally responsible way of ridding our yard of Wasps by using simple dish soap and water. I did not expect to get stung 4 times. I did find out the hard way Wasps can sting you over and over again, They have multiple stinging capabilities, not just a one time shot. Ow.

Meanwhile people in the neighborhood are wondering why they're being attacked by Pamlolive-scented wasps.....

I don t understand why people are arguing about how to deal with this wasp hole, it obviously the perfect size for a Grenade
Yeah yeah but a rocket launcher would work better

We had one under the concrete step to the front porch when I was a kid.. My old man waited until dusk then grabbed the funnel and the gas can. He filled it up. Left the metal funnel in the hole. Made my bro and I wait on the other side of the street. He grabbed the fire extinguisher, yelled "FIRE IN THE HOLE", dropped a match and took off. The flames vented through the funnel. He let it burn a little then put it out. He emptied the whole extinguisher down the funnel. We didn't so much as see another wasp all summer. He looked at us and said, "Don't tell your mother."😆 Good times 👍!
Coolest dad.
Lol. "Don't tell your mother".
I had the same issue, but was stung 10 times while mowing the lawn. I went back the next day as the sun was setting and shot 4 cans of wasp spray into the nest from 30 feet away. I may have been sneak attacked, but I won the war.
They won the battle with speed, not power and soon power would catch up with them.
Thank you for you're service soldier
I did the same with two and just flooded the entrance. I probably could have gotten away with one,but, better safe than sorry. Once I broke the attachment I finished the damage with a hoe. Most were dead or dying. You must keep you distance, due to the others coming back. The second can I had I used to shoot them down.If they got close.
Could you a large amount of hot water with deadly chemicals added and pour them in? Or make some kind of Rudimentary Plug?
I compare wasp warefare to Pearl Harbor and the Atom Bombs. You sneak attack me...I NUKE YOUR A$$!
your obviously supposed to pour molten aluminum down the hole

No, drop a stick of TNT down the hole

Seriously this is yardwork 101 shit
_i would just put the lawnmower on the hole and turn it on_

The Boss hi
The Boss same, but before u put the lawnmower on it disturb it first
I remember hearing the phrase "madder than a wet hornet" when I was growing up. Thanks for bringing that phrase to life.
The real phrase is madder than a wet hen you grew up in the wrong place lol
@@paulbrown1585 That's funny man, but really, having grown up around hornets and hens, there was only one that would fly directly at you to harm you if you got its nest wet.
I like that, my late great father used to say :as mad as a square wheel"
Everyone knows u use gas & fire works 😮 No Pants to run faster 😅
An older gentleman from Georgia told me to invert a glass bowl on top of the hole (at night) and pile dirt around the sides of the bowl. The wasps can't get out and the workers can't bring food or water so they leave while the ones in the hole die. I had 2 side by side and within the week they were both gone!
Gotta throw the whole ground away.
ZERO Pie, ground broke
Burn down the whole city
Throwing the ground away won’t work, gotta throw the whole neighborhood away for the best results
Nuking the hole won't do we need to burn the earth and the entire universe and go to a new one

I hate it when I have to mow the dirt.

@jasmith1867 nothing to do with his romance preferences, the fact he had sandals on with nail polished in the yard gives away the fact he is not in control of his mental facalties. A nut job in the old language.
How do you know he didn't have a 4 year old daughter who wanted to play "nail salon"? Have you a daughter or a niece , and been required to have a tea party at her little table? Jumping to conclusions, I see...

Glad to see you realized to spray at night. Not only are there no wasps flying around to sting you but at night they are all at home so you get them all , no need to keep going back to finish them off. It’s nice to use a “natural “ solution but our best, no fail method is to empty a whole can of Raid or Hot Shot wasp and hornet spray into the hole. We bought a bee suit a few years ago, they are cheap online and do wonders for your self confidence!😁
I feel your pain, in more ways than one. I disturbed a nest when fishing this past week, never saw or heard them until it was too late.
Who else thought the plan was to turn on the Lawn Mower over the hole, so that when they flew out enraged, they'd just get shred to bits?
13gamerbullet the air pushed in front of the blades would likely just shove them out of the way without shredding them. Same reason swatting at flies with your hand usually just pushes them away rather than killing them.
Same
Yeah, that means we played too many video games : ) )

OmarsShortFilms
Famous last words moment for sure!
Lol
I thought the line was “Hold my beer...”
True that!
"Nah nah, wait till the camera's off, then we run up on him"-wasps
I had about 5 of these underground nests around my property a few summers ago. I had purchased a bee suit to deal with them and got to say it worked great. Sprayed the hole with wasp killer wait a few then dug it up most were dead sprayed the stragglers. Didn't get stung once with that full suit on. Make sure it's tight around the waist and ankles where they can possibly climb through to sting you. And also wear pants and a long sleeve WITH the suit on, it was like 90 degrees and sweated like hell but better then being attacked lol.
"I think I saw this on TV once." Yea, a Road Runner cartoon.
What? I use the ACME rocket gag all the time!
I don’t even think wile coyote would have been that dumb lol
🤣
This actually works if you do it at night. They have to do back in the ground because their bodies don't function normally at night due to lower temperatures. So you do it at night when you know they're all inside, use a piece of screen so none try to escape, pour the soap through the screen, and flood it for about 3 minutes. I've done this numerous times with a 100% success rate.

smd tho
Yeah but that's why I don't bother mowing it.

@@boog2383 you good?
@@boog2383 Although I agree... but you could be more respectful.

Glad you are okay. Dang know the pain. After it's best to torch ( easy) or dig out area ( replace with fresh dirt). As all nest they leave a homing scent on / in the area of the nest. Even ones in barns. Baking soda / vinegar with concrete dawn slabbed on and soak rinse works well. They get dehydrated from the stuff too.
Yes I just had this issue with yellow jackets last week!! I used 2 prong attack. 1st I quickly poured couple gallons of ammonia down the entrance hole. While having my gallon sprayer with ammonia ready to go. I sprayed all the yellow jackets that I didn't get with my 1st attack. Not 1 time stung. And it was all over in 30 minutes. That included digging up the 3 tier nest they built.
Why’s everyone focused on the wasp nest? This man said he was planning on mowing his lawn.. WHAT LAWN?!
Great comment!
hahahaha. roflmao
😂
He actually said "mow the weeds".
He needs to water that crap!
“I’ve got my dish soap and my hose”. At this point I knew it was going to go terribly
AND he still had his shorts and sandals on.
I knew as soon as he said "I was gonna mow" and then proceeded to show his 80% yellow yard😂
@@Plockman29 with his painted toe nails😂😂
@@KM-xn5kj yep, I was observing the same thing haha
Rabbi Shekelstein you do dope that’s for sure.
How would it work to push the running lawnmower over the hole?
I get them under my porch ceiling..they always come and go at the same opening. My method that’s works great is to just keep a shop vacuum running for an hour , then repeat several days later. Very satisfying to feel and see them sucked into it…lol
Anybody else notice his toenails were painted
Clorox Bleach i did not notice XD their pink
Clorox Bleach that means he's gay
Clorox Bleach Yeah, but what about it? I didn't notice anything off except that only a few were painted. Was it that only a few were painted instead of all of them? If so I agree it would look better with all painted.
Clorox Bleach who knows maybe he has little girls and he's just a cool dad so he let them paint his toe nails.
SLAPSHOT still I don't think that's the case because most dads would cover it up not wear sandals
this is the most dad thing ever

You must have had a really stupid dad to say that =}
Mowing in sandals with a painted toenail, shorts, and dead grass
True that lol
My dad wouldn't have done this..
I’m watching this now because I ran over a nest while mowing, just a couple hours ago, and got stung about 5 times. I really don’t even know where the nest was but when I went to look they apparently weren’t over the trouble I caused. I might just have to forsake my backyard lol. I’m still hurting and still feeling it too much to do anything.
I had one of these near a blueberry bush years ago. I got stung one day which was pretty painful for a couple days. The hole got a bit bigger as the weeks went by until one day I could see something got into the hole and made it 10 times bigger overnight. There were also a couple honeycombs laying on the ground by the hole. Not sure what it was that destroyed them but we do not have bears in Northern Indiana.
Skunks will dig up and eat wasp nests and they love honey bees too
If your mission was to royally piss them off, then good job mission accomplished.

The Dangleberries Hi.
Small world.
The Dangleberries that's the same thing I commented
The Dangleberries uhh that would be a gory mess.... nope bad idea
The Dangleberries make a rainbow tip out of that lol
Doing a plumbing job, I smashed the nest with a pick thinking it was just a white rock... seem like tracer bullets attacking me by the thousands. Each wasp stings like a jack hammer a 100 times a minute. I made it into the house with who knows how many chasing me, and while talking to a fellow worker there withing a few minutes... I passed out. They rang emergency and were told to monitor me for 5 minutes to see if I regain consciousness... which I did. I suffered crazy pain and itching for 2 months after and lumps as big as golf balls. They are like devils if you disturb them. Next to kidney stones, this was my worst experience.
Do I paint my toenails like that too before I attempt to remove bees?
There's no grass to mow.
The wasps thought it was a sandhill.
Lol
We gonna ignore the fact he got a pink toenail
Notorious Flux his daughter probably painted it.

wayy too close id stand 10 feet at least.
what does night and day diff make?
A girlfriend of mine had a big yellow jacket nest in her backyard that she found out about the hard way mowing the grass. I came over early next morning before daylight and emptied an entire can of starting fluid down the hole, next I dumped a gallon of diesel fuel in a 4ft circle on and around the hole and used charcoal lighter to make a trail away to safer ground and lit it. The ground heaving up was impressive and the fireball from the diesel made sure there was no survivors coming out an undiscovered exit. Been 6 yrs since. Never seen another yellow jacket since.
Not surprised you absolute nutter 😂😂
"I think I saw this on TV once". Yeah, that's the equivalent of "hold my beer now watch this" in the south.

I had a ground hornet nest just like that. You actually already had the weapon right there you needed. The Lawnmower. Fill with fuel, start engine, place over hole and walk away. do not return until engine has run out of fuel and stopped. Worked great for me.

Wait till night time and use a weed burner torch the kind that hooks up to a bbq tank and give them a hot foot like a WWII flame thrower a little hard to fly without wings!!!! I can guarantee that they not getting out through the flame. You can pickup one at harbor freight or tractor supply etc usually under $20 lot better than getting chomped on
I came across one when I was young. I tried covering the hole with a rock to keep the wasps from coming out. I didn't consider all the wasps out working. In about 20 min there was a cloud of wasps trying to get in.
My grandpa taught me to use gasoline in such a situation. He was a veteran of both the the Atlantic and Pacific WW2 theatres, so I sort of took his word for it.

I got stung a bunch of times a few weeks ago, by the same unfriendly species. Sprayed with a bug spray. There were still some left. Then I found out that they are the major predator around here for the spotted lantern flies. So...now I have a reason besides fear to not deal with them.

Don't light it as the fumes will kill them. Went outside the next morning and none were around. I've never had that trick fail for in ground yellow jackets and it causes little damage to the yard.

I’ve always wanted to try this myself, but as u mentioned (& like I knew) ONLY AT NIGHT lol…a couple other mistakes I noticed was that u stopped a couple times which gave them opportunity for some of them to come out. Also it wasn’t enough water. If u go online & look at a diagram of the structure of a yellow jacket nest u will see that it takes A LOT of water to reach & fill up the nest. I also think it’d probably work better to attach 1 of those car wash dispenser things to the hose so that all the water coming out is soapy water. Thank u for the advice on what NOT to do tho. I have a few tough lessons learned over the years myself😂
That sting really does give that adrenaline rush though. I have been waked by them a few times in destroying their nests. Stuff I use is surface spray insecticide. Not in the pressure can, but liquid in a bottle. Just tip a cup of the stuff down the nest at night come morning you got a body count as a pile. Word of advice never use gasoline and especially LPG followed by a lighted match unless you want a deep fish pond in your yard.
Why not use gas? It's heavier than air, robs the hole of oxygen, gets in the nest and suffocates the pupae. It's not cheap anymore, but it's sure effective. Don't light it; you want the fumes.
Patrick: Lets just take the wasp nest and push it somewhere else!

I have been having problem with wasp Nests regularly. Last time I was picking weeds out of my flower bed , I got stung. Been stung atleast 3 times .
They getting creative in hiding places. They are very aggressive.
I think they are attracted to my rose bushes . I got to find a way to deal with them.
I called Pest control, who I pay monthly. They said you don't have Nests but they are hanging around your flower garden just when winter starts .
They keep coming back.
Finally I bought a bee suit. Will wear it and inspect around house . Then take action.

well there is no grass actually, it’s all weed no grass, found out about stuff like that a couple weeks ago
Ur toenails are snatched brother! SLAY KING!
Get a shop vac, fill it with about 4 " of water, add a squirt dish soap (the dish soap breaks the tension of the water, once the wasps get sucked in, the water won't support their weight so they drown!) Set it up at night (when it's cool), put the hose end right next to the entrance, make sure it won't move when you turn it on. Once you notice good activity the next day, simply turn on the shop vac! Go have a beer, relax for a bit. You can go back every 10 minutes or so and take a long stick and agitate the opening if you wish, just don't disturb the hose and don't loiter, LOL. After an hour or so, you should have quite a haul! Repeat if necessary!
