  • 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.

    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 👍!

    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.

      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.

    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!

      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.

    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 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.

    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.

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.

    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.

    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😂

  • @Ghost-oo7gh
    @Ghost-oo7gh 10 місяців тому

    My Dad would mark the hole by tossing a stick or something near it. Once it was dark ( so they are all in the nest) the mower would start and get parked right over the hole. The yellowjackets would attack the spinning blade until they had all made their try to get that invader to leave. Then the spray (water works as long as you let it run for a good while) would be used to finish it off. Fill the hole with dirt or gravel, etc so a new colony doesn’t take up residence in that well prepared building site.

    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.

Our dad taught us a long time ago to take a quarter to half full pea can of gasoline and dump it down the hole late in the evening. 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.

    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.

    • @mrcryptozoic817
      @mrcryptozoic817 8 місяців тому

      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.

    Had jellow jackets in a hole in the ground along the back foundation of my house - found it out when I got stung. I bought a squeeze bottle of Tempo 1% dust on Amazon. I attached a small scoop (maybe 1/3 of a cup size) to the end of a pole and put a bunch of Tempo dust in it. After dark I used a flashlight to make sure I went to the right spot and from a safe distance I dumped the dust down the hole. Never saw another yellow jacket. They didn't even make it out of the hole to die.

    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.

    We had a wasps nest burrowed into one of our fruit tree root bases , the way I dealt with it was I poured about a litre of unleaded into a milk bottle that had a nice taper too it so it fitted snugly into the hole , I carefully moved to hole and pushed the bottle upside down into the hole firmly , I did it at night when the wasps where not active.
    By morning , all the wasps were dead from the unleaded fumes, and they have never returned.

    I'll tell you how NOT to deal with an in-ground wasp nest. When we were kids living in Oregon, my oldest brother Mike (about age twelve or thirteen at the time) was clearing a pathway through the ivy by dragging a length of chain through it. Unbeknownst to us, yellow jackets had built a nest in the ivy right where Mike was going to clear the path. My other brother Daniel and I were walking ahead of him right across the nest getting the wasps riled up. Mike came tromping by with the chain a few seconds later just in time for a bunch of wasps to fly right up his pants. Daniel & I each got stung a few times but Mike had to take off his pants to get all the yellow jackets off of him, so he got stung a bunch of times, including once near his eye.

We even turned one into a flame thrower. duct taped half a yard stick to the end of the super soaker and duct taped a Zippo to the other end. We blew up a supply shed (area beautification equipment) and knocked out multiple windows with the blast (someone had hidden fireworks or some type of oxidizer in the shed). but hey, no more hornets.
    This was 20 years ago, fuel was less than a buck a gallon.

    "I was gonna mow the weeds"
    Bro the weeds are the only green in your yard. It looks like a nuke was dropped there.

      That's summer up around here, if the grass isn't watered and no shade you get dead grass like this, half my yard looks like that right now

    I've dealt with underground nests buy mixing with petrol plenty of Polystyrene white foam melted down into a gallon of petrol until it's nice and thick. Pour down holes and cover with a fine meshing leaving a 10 mtr fuse soaked in petrol. At night light the fuse and end of problem although it does take a while to fill the large hole left in the lawn and have a hose pipe near to hand.
