Ive had this experience with the dreaded ‘White Face Hornets’, you have to kill every one or they will come back and rebuild. Ive had it happen to me, I hit them with raid in the late afternoon and I apparently left a couple of survivors, they rebuilt the empire in one day. You have to hit them at night when all of the hornets are in the nest. After I saw the empire had returned, I hit them again around 9 at night, they all flew out of the hive punch drunk dropping like flies, nothing but bodies in the morning. I hope you got them all because just one will rebuild the entire empire. I agree with Bitwise Magick, take no survivors. LOL
Dress in black, go out in the darkest part of the night, they have poor night vision, all are in the nest, place drywall bucket 1/2 full of water under the nest, cut nest cleanly from overhang to drop into the bucket, close the lid, leave closed for 12 hours, throw the remains on the yard for the birds to enjoy the next day, done!
@@tediz9because they’re all in the nest and are relaxed. During the day a lot of them are outside the nest and the ones in the nest are far more aggressive
@ablackprep No sales-people. Heard it more than one occasion by various people who have to deal with these pests. It's a common practice in Oregon since Wasps/Hornets pop-up everywhere-city or in rural areas. Besides, I hate salespeople.
Drone #1: "Did anybody get the name of that hurricane?" Drone #2: "No, but they were right that it's the water damage and not the wind you have to be concerned about."
For safety I would mix soap with the water so that they can’t fly after being sprayed. You can use a fertilizer spray atomizer to mix the soap and water. Then put a power nozzle at the end to blast the nest to pieces like he just did.
Why does everyone attempt this during the day? All you have to do is wait till sundown after they all go into their nest for the night, spray some engine starting spray in the hole, or wasp spray then a can of " great stuff" foam. All done
Get some soap- dish washing liquid, or laundry detergent . Put in pump up sprayer or gaden hose sprayer. The soap breaks the surface tension of the water, allowing it to suffocate the insects, as they breathe through their skins, or exoskeleton.
We use to double up pro grade garbage bags and then in one quick motion run up and cover the nest quickly being careful to get it covered completely in one move. We would then take the bag and drop it into one of my neighbors trash cans and close the lid while running away at the same time. The neighbor that got the bags was very deserving of it.
Oh hell no! I mind my own business around flying things with needle stingers! I was always told if you leave them alone they will leave you alone. Except when they sting you.
Years ago, after paying an exterminator $100 to spend 5 minutes injecting the nest with terminal powder, I bought a bee-suit of my own and have been knocking down wasp, hornet and bee nests on my own, usually with a $3 can of "hornet killer" from the local drug store. You do it at night, after they're all in the hive in a slumber. You nail the nest and inject that spray right into the nest and the next day you're good to tear it down. At worst, you have to do it a 2nd time. Saves a lot of time and money, not to mention water damage, fire damage (for those who burn them), etc...
@@snoopfurlow1275 bengal dust? I have to get a ladder to get close. I sprayed them with the water hose cause someone said drown them out but this seemed to just make them upset
Those gutters are a DISGRACE....look how rusty they are! I'm surprised those hornets would even live there. It must have been at night when the real estate hornet showed them the place.
None of them followed the water and tried to sting you? I personally would have waited until late at night, when most are on the nest, cool and docile, and hit em with some kind of "kills on contact" long range spray, but what you did seems to have worked very well.
Thank you I had sprayed the nest, many got away. But when I tried to take it down they would come back. The hose water made it non challenging to the bees and allowed me to take it down. It was quite a mess through to clean up. But no stings. 👏😎
Looks like a vented soffit there... so not only did you remove the nest, you thoroughly soaked the attic insulation in that area. FYI - wet insulation is BAD!
Bit hard when they get in the bricks like what happened in my house but killed them in less than 2 minutes one phone call and there death sentence is on its way
The hornet's filed an insurance claim, but later found out their policy did not cover water damage. They have hired a lawyer to read the fine print, and try to recover some of their damages, as well as their loss of life claim.
I use a small Can or Cup with enough Petrol/Gasoline in it and my aim is pretty true when I throw the contents directly onto the Wasp Nest ( we have had no Hornets Nests yet ) killing those Wasps instantly , then hose it all off !
just put some soap in the water and be done with it. that would be more humane. personally, i think be humane is pointless in this case. put the hurt on em!!
Yah, wasps breathe through the skin on their arses (Vast oversimplification but I can't be bothered to explain further) Use soap and that clogs up their pores and they can't breathe.
This has to be the dumbest way I have ever seen of dealing with a wasps nest. Enjoy the mould that will be caused by all that water getting inside the wall.
Wasps or hornets.? Wasps pollinate flowers and plants, and kill garden pests. I have a vegetable plot 90' x 30' and there are wasps. I leave them alone and not one sting in 19 years. But then I am British and not prone to panic.
Obviously you have never dealt with a bald-faced Hornets nest, with 300 nasty ladies living inside. They are very very aggressive. The slightest vibration will send them into attack mode
I guess that woulda been funny, but, since they crept up, built a nest, invaded space, and became a general nuisance to the public, after yelling INCOMING at 'em, I'd of been screaming DEATH TO ALL OF YOU LITTLE STINGERS, as I sprayed 'em with the foamiest Wasp and Hornet Killer that money could buy!!!
Here it is : Spray/SOAK the nest with hornet spray at night when all or most are inside, wait til morning. Look at it, no activity. { if not sure } spray again, but usually not necessary. Knock the nest off from where it is attached ; a lot less messy, other hornets don't stray & build somewhere else near by. Put it in a plastic bag or wait til completely dry, dissect it for show & tell.
yard limit I live in the city and I don’t see any large nests. However, in subsequent videos, I discovered the other openings were false holes. Hornets have predators and the hornets can hide on the outside under the openings. One video I watched claimed hornets had created a second hole when the primary one was blocked. I have no way to research and verify this except to see if someone posts a video or article about it.
Does NOT "terminate" the hornet or wasps, it just relocates them to the floor or ground while wet and they are PISSED. They dry and can fly withing a few seconds so you better be close to a door. This DOES however eliminate their nest, which gives them nowhere to go but to YOUR house for a couple days...
Starting fluid (ether) is the fastest possible death for them or any other insect... it is INSTANT ! Just don't light a match or make a spark for about 15 minutes. If you do.... BOOM !
Put the little "straw" on the ether nozzle and shoot the nest good it will kill the ones in the nest in a minute or so. If you can give it a shot up in the hole on the nest... Spray contacting them is INSTANT death. NO spark, flame oe heat sourcefor a while, that includes cigarrettes, etc.
This may work for lesser types of hornets, but I doubt this will work with the giant asian hornet, which is about 6 inches in length and an inch thick.
wonder if you could knock the entire nest into a garbage cane, and then just go dump it in the woods somewhere. I wonder if the hornets would survive the event and continue living at the nest wherever you left it.
Hornets be like:
"How carless of us, we did not anticipate sideways rain."
That went a lot better than I expected it to.
Should be titled " fastest way to get your head swolled like a mellon " .
Surviving wasps: "that was one hell of a storm!"
"Yeah almost as bad as last time"
Wasps: Call FEMA again!

Also water should be Very soapy and either very hot or very cold, but not dangerously hot that it could burn you.
Always deal with hornets, bees, wasps, yellow jackets at night or dusk.
Why? Is it because they not in the nest?
@@tediz9because they’re all in the nest and are relaxed. During the day a lot of them are outside the nest and the ones in the nest are far more aggressive
I would never mess with them at night. They would have the advantage. I mess with them early morning
@@tediz9 It's because they are in the nest and quiet. If you do it during the day most will be gone and will come back mad.
As mentioned below, attack fast. But do it at night with Raid. That's how I was told to eliminate them.

@Mike Grover I use the engine starter first, it has ether and knocks them out. Then I use the great stuff
@Mike Grover nice. I had a 67 cougar XR7 convertible, 4 speed 351 Windsor. Loved the car. However back then it meet it's fate with rust.

They can only be destroyed by fire.
Only fire can cleanse their souls of the sins they committed in this life on the basis of being wasps.
@@moritamikamikara3879 Fair enough!
Those damn invading, pesky hornets just get too familiar.
Roof, gutters and soffit are in rough shape.
You only used 30 gallons of water. Directions say use 100 😜

Those things are, or at least, were, uninvited squatters, though. No eviction notice needed!
No due process! So unfair!💕
They have flood insurance. They will be back.
try that with bald faced hornets dare you
He said black hornets but he meant bald face hornets which are black and white.
I used BOILING water. Killed quickly and allowed removal of nest super easy to just wipe off. No mess and 100%.
No wasps were harmed in the making of this film. Literally. He essentially just evicted them to another place.
The nest above our front door is in the wall because there is a small quarter size hole and I tired this but it seemed to not phase them.

So, what happened to the hornets? Water does not kill them, does it?
Now u have a high water bill
He should used wrasp freeze or blowed some sevin dust or acephate powder in their late that evening
Just took out 1/2 dozen paper wasps using dish soap and water...works every time!!!
Thank you I had sprayed the nest, many got away. But when I tried to take it down they would come back. The hose water made it non challenging to the bees and allowed me to take it down. It was quite a mess through to clean up. But no stings. 👏😎
Shoddy construction! That's what you get with an unlicensed, fly by night contractor that didn't pull a permit!
You win....the webs for the day!

It is beautifully done. God is Amazing
What about using SOAP next time as that will mess with their ability to fly.
Use a drone, the blades will eliminate them when they attack it

That's a good strategy, having the spray from the hose resemble as much as possible a rainy day.
Adjust the nozzle to hard stream from spray setting.
