Thanks, Chris. Instead of stopping at the dollar store for a $5 can of wasp spray, I was able to justify coming back home with a new $150 stainless shop vacuum. And a ladder.
Mark You forgot the huge electricity bill
No more energy used than running a tv. Try calling an exterminator
Interesting factoid regarding yellow jackets:
The clan spends their entire summer foraging; then bringing back their findings to feed the larva in the nest. As they feed mouth to mouth, the larva give off a kind of natural sugar, which the adults need to make energy. As the summer passes there are fewer larva in the nest, so the adults must find this sugar elsewhere, which is why they become much more aggressive at rotting fruits and other sugars.
Interesting.
Most relaxing channel on UA-cam.
That's a nice comment! Thanks!
yes your right
True
I watched this a year ago and ended up with a nest this summer. I used your technique to great effect.
One observation I have though is that even if you get it down to zero wasps a day later, there are pupa in the nest which will develop into adults without any help, so repeating the process every few days is necessary to keep the population down. We don't even need to kill the nest to win, since winter will do that and keeping the worker population down saves us from hassle.
One innovation I added was a little cardboard baffle near the nest opening to prevent them from sheltering behind a nearby electrocal conduit and this brought my capture rate up above 19/20 for takeoffs (based on 10 min observation).
Thanks again! I love your ideas and your filmmaking.
6:35 I like how they got teleported to another world of doom
Thank you so much for this video! My husband and I used this method and we were able to successfully remove a hornet’s nest from our house. We didn’t get stung once!
That's great to hear!!
I did the same thing a few years ago. It's very satisfying watching them get sucked up, particularly after being stung a few times. I don't mind wasps, but I didn't want them by the backdoor.
Did the same thing a few times. I couldn't believe how many I got.
poor yellow jackets prolly thought they was goin to the backrooms
His method goes along perfectly with *OODA* for problem solving (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act). Many people go straight to decide and act without thoroughly observing a problem first. Good on ya's
I've never heard of OODA! That's interesting. Thanks!
Well that was satisfying.
Years ago, I lived in a house with a crabapple tree in the front yard where wasps liked to build paper nests in the outer branches. This was about 10 feet from the front door. Well, they would return to the nest a little before dusk, and they were pretty docile at that time of day. So a friend and I would get a 6-pack of beer, and sit out on the front steps with some contractor trash bags and some garden snippers. when things were quiet, I'd nip off one branch about half an inch from the outside of the nest, and withdraw to the front steps to sip the beer and talk with my friend. Some of the wasps would come out, fly around and look for immediate danger, and go back into the nest. About 10 minutes later, I'd snip off another branch. Wash, rinse, repeat, until the only branch left was the strongest one that was holding up the nest. Then, I would pull a doubled up bag over the whole nest, with a can of insectiside inside, holding the bag tight around the branch. I could then feel for the insecticide through the bag and release most of the spray, and then cut off the last branch, and throw the whole thing into the trash. It worked for me.
you have only partially solved the problem, so:
Stage 2: Take a can of RAID, use a standard drinks straw as an extender into the hole and give the nest a thorough spraying. You have killed all the worker drones, but there are still eggs & a Queen.
Use the whole can.
Use gloves because that can & straw are going to get very cold.
If Im not mistaken, the nest will die off without food and maintenance from the workers and will just dry up.
@@chrisnotap I would close the hole up. Even if the nest is dead (or about to die) there is a place for insects to live. Closing the entrance will kill the nest off for sure and will avoid new inhabitants.
@@nogmeerjan Yeah, I was wondering if you could not just have sealed up the hole and therefore they would have died? Either way I LOVE your videos and how clever your fixes are. Thanks !
@@JaimeHuffman No, never seal a live yellow jacket nest. Seal holes up well after you're sure it's been neutralized.
@@asphaltmilkshake4596 they can find a way into your house. Happened to me with bees.
Loved the intel gathering, planning and execution. Well done sir. Little did they know you were closing in and the battle would be over. Glad you were the victor and well done!
"and let the victor enjoy the spoils!"
I love the clever and non toxic and safe manner that you did this 👏 I feel bad for the wasps but they are in the wrong place at the wrong time 😒
Sir i do believe you have by far the cleanest prettiest shop vac ive ever seen
Chris, there can’t be 2 or 3 guys like you on planet Earth, thank you for a very entertaining video
Brilliant! Just when I was ready to go to the hardware store and buy a can of hornet spray I came across this. Had all the tools needed and went to work. It’s only been a hour but it’s working beautifully. Thanks!
Fantastic! It's not that hard to set up and it's really effective!
Before I set up my shop vac I went through 2 cans of that worthless garbage! Environmentalists have forced RAID to tone down their formula, it just pisses them off now. Back about 40 years ago that stuff killed them in 3 seconds!
I just loved your strategy. We have a nest almost in the same location as you had here. So scary.
I had a wasp's nest behind my gutter. I bought a 12' length of 1/2" plastic tubing at Home Depot and taped it to my snow rake pole. I then attached a dollar store turkey baster to my end of the tubing. Next,I dipped the business end of the tubing in some Sevin powder,and then puffed the powder onto the spot where the wasps were landing,and in a couple of days,all activity ceased. The little buggers land,and track the powder into the nest,which kills them all.
Chris - You’re so clever that I really think you could reinvent the wheel (better and cheaper!). 😁 Thanks for another great video! 👍🏼
Wow! Thanks for that!
Simple, effective, informative, and entertaining, Thanks for sharing.
What a beautifully simple solution to a horrible problem, I love it. Brilliant video as usual 😊😊😊😊
Thanks!
I love your content it’s so random but always useful
Thanks! Glad I can help!
Wow that's genius I never would have thought of it
Lol the slow mows of them getting sucked in is hilarious
Charge them rent.
those wasps dare step into the territory of a DIY creator
Love the time and attention to detail you put in your videos! Greetings from Greece!
Glad you like them! Greetings from CANADA!!
Genius, I thoroughly enjoyed your video thanks! I will try this as we have 3 nests on my smallholding here in the UK. Once we had 10 hives which made gardening and picking our fruit a nightmare.... Tried soapy water, mesh and sand, hot ashes, petrol ect....Love your gentle approach, quick and effective, thankyou : )
Glad it was helpful!
I like when you have a problem to solve. Everyone benefits! Thank you. And it's Ok to leave your beard. It's pretty cool! 😉
Ah thanks!
@@chrisnotap, Yes, the beard is a keeper!
I’ve had my Wyze Cams for nearly 18 months, they’re great for such a reasonable price! Very clever vid to get rid of those pesky yellow jackets!
Do you mind if I ask how much you paid? Thanks
@@mermaidgirl9232 Believe it or not they are around 25 bucks at Home Depot. They pair with the app you download on your cell phone. I use a mini SD card 32 GB in mine and use it for security surveillance at home. Which are about 10 dollars. I think they are impressive for the money for sure. Also, my Wyze cams are paired with my Alexa Show where I can ask it to show my door wall cam, or show the garage cam. And there's a few cool things in the settings you can set up from the app on your phone. One day the smoke detector sounded, someone overcooked something, it alerted me on my iPhone that it detected a smoke alarm sounding. I thought that was pretty impressive too:) You can be away from home and view live cam coverage from your app on your phone. Like to observe a pet. There's also 2 way audio. The only downfall is they must be plugged into an outlet. But for my purposes, I'm ok with that.
@@la196 Yup, I agree. They are pretty good for their asking price.
@@mermaidgirl9232 He left the link below his vid .. Click on it and it will bring you right to it .. Around $40. I think I seen when I clicked.
This is absolutely brilliant!
Great video and technique. Simple but super effective method without poisons to run off into my well water. Excellent videography too. Subscription earned.
Thank you so much. We have a vaulted ceiling and your method worked great!!!
That's great that it worked for you!
Very clever and sooooo satisfying to watch [ have to admit here that I absolutely HATE wasps ! ]. Thank you.
Thanks Chris, works like a charm! Doing the exact same thing right now in the shed where we store our bikes (Dutch viewer reporting in :D )
Greetings from CANADA!!
I love this idea. Thank you!
We are infinitely charmed by your elegant solutions.
Be aware also that these yellow jackets are much more aggressive than a regular wasp.
A wasp will usually not attack unless it considers you a threat.
Also, most (?) wasps build their nest outside and visible.
Yellow jackets usually build their nests in the ground. In this example, the space under the door is ideal.
The worst thing about yellow jackets is how aggressive they are. They will attack for no reason. When they do, they retain their stingers. Also, they can both sting and bite.
Be extremely careful during the summer if you’re drinking from a can of regular (not diet) soda while outside. They can quickly go inside the can and attack when you take a sip.
Yellow jackets are in the same family as wasps and it’s correct to call both ‘wasps’.
Chris, you are a legend.
You are a genius Sir!I have the same issue, will try it tomorrow.

Beautifully filmed.
Its working great for me so far. I have at least a couple hundred trapped after just 2 hours.
I did the same thing and in 2 days I got about 500 of those flying A-holes! Day 1 netted me about 200 in about 1/2 hour, day 2 was about 300 in an hour. Day 3 coming up tomorrow.
That was a great way to calmly take care of business.
I just got the opportunity to try this method on a nest of yellow jackets only I used my canister Vacumm instead of our wet vac which is a monster of a machine located in our barn too far from the nest. With my bad back I didn’t want to tackle it. Your method works just like your Video showed. Well after dark I managed to spray wasp poison into the hose while the vacuum was still running and I’m hoping this kills the collection I have so far. I just quit for the night after taping the end of the hose so if any yellow jackets managed to survive they won’t be able to come out. I plan to get up an hour before sunrise in the morning and repeat the process. Like you, I think I have a large nest. Thank you for coming up with such a Genius idea. I’ve battled these things before with no luck and have been stung plenty of times. The battle still isn’t over. I’ll try to give an update if I survive. Lol
Being a distance away with the pipe being 8 feet or more long makes it very safe to set up then just walk away and let the vacuum do its work. Let me know how you make out once it's all said and done.
Nice video very relaxing and calm
That's brilliant Chris, thanks for a great tip!
Happy to help
Not sure which part I liked more, the ingenuity for ridding yourself of the yellow jackets or the cool technology and ways to use it! This was a great video!
Thanks for that!
Please upload more often i love your videos!
Nice! I will use this on my next nest. I s really good to see a video from you as always. Thanks
Hi I just wanted to let you know that I went through this 2 times w/yellow jackets around my house .. Once under my shed and another under an awning .. A neighbour noticed us killing them ( turns out he's a real bee lover so I guess this must've made him cringe ) My point is, he bought me a paper wasp look-a-like nest that hung on a wire, very cheap .. I never got any that summer .. He told me that if you hang them, or even a paper lunch bag around your home, they don't go near other nests, which that's what they think they are .. Now I found at our Dollarama ( in Canada ) they sell for $2. instead of over $10. dollars at our hardware stores .. I buy them for everyone in my neighbourhood ( including the nice man that bought it for me to start with ) and non of us have had a wasp issue in 7 years .. Not one of us .. Also, Chris says they never use the same nest twice, so you don't even have to worry about the original nests .. Sorry for the long message .. Just b/c you said "my next nest" lol, sounds like you get them frequently, so I was hoping this will help you not have to go through getting rid of them at all 😉
The shot of putting water into the vacuum is really cool, with the water column being totally clear
When I watched the footage while editing, you could actually see right up the centre of the water column. Pretty cool.
Once most of them are out it might be best to just caulk the opening to prevent them or others from rebuilding. I have been using this technique for years and even use it when an occasional wasp gets into my house. We just use the vacuum with the hose and suck them right up. No swatting or anything. They are not strong enough to overcome the suction. No risk of a sting.
I like the closeup action
Great video and suggestions, thanks brother 👍
Excellent way to do this. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Good video Chris... Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Love this idea. No, more getting stung. 😊
Good one, Chris! Great solution!
Glad you like it!
this was brilliant, sir. thank you for another relaxing and informative vid! and i love that you decided to keep the beard. it’s a look.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The ladder and cut soda tube, brilliant. I've used this method for ants in the house... when they've established a trail, i set up, let it run for about twenty minutes a day.
There is another thing you can do on a visible nest outside. Get a large plastic funnel and tape it to the vacuum hose. Move quickly with the funnel and cover the entire nest. Best if the edges of the funnel seal all the way around. They will attempt takeoffs and they will get sucked up.
Dude your videos are so freaking cool. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you like them!
Really brilliant.
Great video, thanks
Pretty neat. So many good ideas!
I love your channel Chris!
I appreciate that!
Just simply ask them nicely to leave.
Please, continue with your channel. Im loving your videos!
Thanks for that!! I will!
@@chrisnotap Yes!! Thanks man!
This is brilliant! New subscriber, and I love your channel already!
Welcome aboard!
Oh I'm goin to go get a shop vac right now!! Awesome video!
Awesome! Thank you!
Great stuff 😎 thanks Chris
5:46 I like how you said hover because it’s been proven that beetles bees and I guess also wasps hover. Creating a field around themselves through the vibration of their wings around their body.
So much fun to watch your videos!
Thanks!
Up to your normal, high standards 👍 I just “hit the dinger” 🛎 so I never miss a future video. Thanks from 🇸🇪
Facinating the amount that were in there
WOW!!! Great idea!
Love this! Thank youuu! :)
Some video as usual!! I'm sharing this one with friends!!
Yep, I agree with others here. You're like the ice cream truck rounding the corner! I can't wait to get the video open!!
Do you have ideas about wasps in our attics that came in from attic vents? I don't like using poisons, but not sure what else exists to rid them. I like your shiney vacuum!
I've got a yellow jacket problem now, that I'm going to try this with.
Thanks
Perfect timing!
Interesting concept.
I don’t even use these things irl, I just love his voice
Since you cut off notifications on the fat frustrated squirrel video, I figured that there were a bunch of upset folks. This video is just showcasing a brilliant idea. After having been swarmed and stung a bazillion times just for walking behind my mower, It brings joy to see those little varmints get what they deserve.
Well done!
Smart man. Thanks for the tips.
Any time!
Always good content. Keep the beard. You always come up with good ideas. I enjoy watching videos from you. 👍👊
Thanks! Will do!
Congrats for 1M
hypnotic mesmerizing brilliant interesting thanks
Good idea. Basically, Dawn dish is something to keep in the arsenal, along with superglue, zip ties, wd-40, duct tape, etc.
Well done nearly 1 mil!
Yes! I should get there sometime this year! Exciting time!
Very good idea.
Thanks! My wife and I had black hornets in a crawl space. Thought I had to pay for an exterminator. This works fantastic. Huge, dead black hornets with very little effort!
Would love to have this guy as my neighbor
Until he leaves his vacuum on for 4 hours lol
Nice editing 👌
awesome... love the video
Intelligent content, I like it! Jolly good!
Very good setup 👍
Thanks 👍
Thnx, so cool.👍😀
Hi Chris, haven't seen your posts for a while, I hope your well. I bought the parts to make your vortex dust cleaner and the water vac. Yours looked the best to build. I know it's going to work well. Great solution.
I have taken a well deserved break and I will be back soon. Thanks for asking!
This is like if Mr Rodgers became a wasp killer. Interesting stuff.
Lol! Good analogy!
Chris, love yr videos and long time Sub,, like the way you use camera gear and edit, My experience with Bees, is, meanwhile the Queen is, laying more eggs,, Like the beard, sometimes a guy just needs to be hairy..Keep up the good work and creative vids in these depressing times, be good or try,
