  • The NEW Bug-A-Salt 3.0 compared to the 2.0 including Salt Tests, does Bug-A-Salt High Performance Salt make a difference? Watch and see. Can't wait? Get One HERE: amzn.to/36fHgCP
    DISCLAIMER- "A-SALTING" STINGING INSECTS CAN RESULT IN THE SHOOTER RECEIVING MANY VENOMOUS STINGS. IT IS AGAINST THE MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDATIONS TO PUT YOURSELF OR OTHERS IN HARMS WAY BY SHOOTING SALT AT ANY VENOMOUS INSECT THAT CAN, AND PROBABLY WILL, RETALIATE! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
    Get your Very Own But-A-Salt 3.0 fly shooting system right here: amzn.to/3BBh6dK
    It kills flies dead, inside or outside. That's what it's designed to do.
    Yes yes "yawn" it kills flies better than ever. In this video, I use the 3.0 to visit an in-ground yellow jacket wasp nest. My three-year-old grandson was by the pond watching fish when he discovered the wasps in the usual way, by getting stung. So, what to do? Well, test the 3.0 and see if it handles some of the most angsty stinger-equipped flying insects around.
    Bug-A-Salt 2.0 (still awesome, wider pattern)
    Bug-A-Salt Camo Edition
    YES FINALLY! YOU can buy this version on Amazon: amzn.to/2NLbjMo
    Up until now, you had to order direct from the manufacturer.

    Good video. For yellow jackets 🐝 🐝 my dad and I use to do the following:
    Two lawn chairs about 30’ away or so,
    A shop vac with extension cord.
    Set vacuum nozzle at yellow jacket entrance and plug 🔌 in extension cord back at house. Relax in lawn chairs and enjoy the show. The vac aggravates the yellow jackets and they come out in droves only to make it about 2” before taking a ride in the black tunnel of death.
    When you open the shop vac you will see that carnage. I’m not sure how they die so quickly, maybe it’s when they hit the filter inside.

    • @DeMac10
      @DeMac10 2 роки тому +1

      My shop vac has no filter I dont think, just a tube that leads to the basin, meaning I'd have created a new den for these creatures, hundreds of flying yellow jackets cooped into a shop vac. I'd probably just suck my cars exhaust into the vac at that point to kill them off

    • @glidershower
      @glidershower 2 роки тому

      I think they die of a combination of asphyxiation and dehydration, as their oxygen intake is deprived by the massive air current flowing outwards, which in turn also removes the water in their bodies, like putting a wet rag on the intake side of a fan.
      Gotta hate wasps myself, lolz. Highly aggressive, can sting multiple times, they don't hunt enough pests like spiders do to justify tolerating them, have no useful byproducts, and goddamn do they reproduce like mad, _and kill honeybees, an insect that's a 1000 times more valuable and less aggressive._

I believe that this was more about a face to face, one against hundreds, revenge killing for stinging the grandchild. It was awesome! The video quality was awesome too. And you got to test the BAS ver3.0

    I have all four versions of the BaS family. Although the earlier versions claim they're not as effective on the wasps etc, I have found they also work just fine. The Lawn and Garden has even dispatched small roaches and stink bugs. The Black Fly edition 3.0 is a beast. I haven't tried the official salt. I want to try a coarse table salt or even pretzel salt to note the difference.

    • @FrederickDunn

      Hi Marc, I think the dust and smaller grains of salt in some other types of salt tend to gum up the loader and cause misfires. I'm going to continue my BA3.0 adventures in 2019. The "weaponized" salt seems good and won't jam your shooter!

      Frederick Dunn it’s been about a year, and after further testing I’ve discovered that most effective range starts around 10 - 12 inches out to around 3 feet. At point blank, the salt hasn’t hd enough time to pick up most effective velocity. Also, the wider spread after one foot out makes for a better coverage. I have also tried kosher salt. Way more effective when it hits but the pattern doesn’t allow optimum coverage. Although I never had any dust caking issues, I can see where the high performance salt would excel.

    I use my 2.0 on yellow jackets under the apple tree. In a few days, the jackets got smaller, and then smaller still, as I depleted the workers and the younger ones had to venture out. Most are a 2-3 hit per kill. Can kill a baldie, but you need 4-5 shots. They need to make a full auto BAS! Even more fun is the stable flies that drove me nuts on Lake Superior. They love to congregate on my mining buckets. You'll have a 5 gal bucket with 200 flies trying to warm up on it. Best shot so far has been 15 KIA.

    I had an idea a while back: on a day with no wind, jab some sticks in a circle around a ground hive a safe distance away, then attach a 'fence' of plastic to the sticks and dump dirt on the bottom edge to give it a fairly good seal. Next, dump a couple of pounds of dry-ice inside the fence. As it melts, it turns into CO2, which is heavier than air. Theoretically, it /should/ sink down into the wasp nest and suffocate them. Any that fly down into the nest won't see or smell anything alarming before it is too late. Does that make sense?

      Hmmm, I think they are pretty much the same pull. I have run hot water through the units and dried them out well and that can free them up a bit if you've done a lot of shooting with it. BUT, it has to be totally dry before you reload them.

    I think I would have set up a bait station a few feet away, which would attract the wasps. Getting them out of their nest would likely be more productive (lol, destructive!) than pointing it into their nest hole. And it would probably be safer. Plus, you'd be able to keep the a-salt weapon in your hands.

    Alas, it looks as if wasps and yellow jackets are still too heavily armored for even the Bug-A-Salt 3.0 to be consistent in killing them. I hope the people who make these will develop a version that's powerful enough to kill a yellow jacket instead of just knocking it around a bit. The 1.0-3.0 models are great for taking out pesky flies and most indoor insects, but killing those darn wasps requires something with even more kick.
