    The fact that yellow jackets sting Shawn in most of his videos about nest removal and he still doing this without being afraid just show the determination that he has.

    Shawn, get yourself a swimming pool vacuum pole. These are telescoping aluminum poles, reasonably priced, that stretch out to about 15 feet in length (longer ones are available). Attach a 10" hook made of 1/4" diameter steel rod to the end. Perfect for pulling down wasp nests. Much more safe to be on the ground than on a ladder too.

    • @external316
      @external316 Рік тому +5

      Better to just use molten aluminum and make art out of it. All fun any games till you drop it and see a spilt in half wasp in the middle of the broken piece…

      @@narrowpath9491 yes, yes I do. Just making the comment here so I don't have to dig for hours trying ton find a video where the nest is underground. For mud dobber nest(s) (the one(s) my papa deals with the most) one of the best things to do is put a little bit of gas in a cup and put it over the nest, those idoits come flying out straight into the gasoline or just get taken down from the fumes (aka the reason they rush out anyways). Works like a charm, But heavy duty wasp/ant spray works too.

    Hi Shawn,
    I live in Montréal, Québec and this summer for some reason we are overrun with wasps and hornets too. Long story short, my neighbour's property had some renovations done recently, removal of a rotted wooden balcony. There was a paper wasp nest inside, poor workers got attacked removing it. Some of the wasps are lingering.
    I use concentrated peppermint oil on my gallery to deter them, it works.
    I wish I wasn't SO scared of them. I've been stung lots of times in the past, it's not fun, their sting hurts worse than a bee IMO.
    Thanks for your video. You're a brave man.

    The sources I've read said to wait until after dark when the critters are back in the nest to do something to get rid of them, and to put a bag over them so they won't escape. Otherwise, the remaining bugs will go somewhere else and just start a new nest.

  • @Langharig_Tuig
    @Langharig_Tuig Рік тому

    As for why there are sometimes more above ground nests or underground nests: It depends on two things:
    -Ants. if there are a lot of ants somewhere wasps will be more likely to nest in trees because they struggle to compete for nesting places with ants. I am not certain enough to explain why there would be more or less ants at any time
    -Temperature. Wasps want warm but vented nests. When it's very warm ground nests will overheat, making tree nests the cooler option.

    We had a HUGE bald faced hornet nest stuck to our cottage up in northern Ontario. It was easily the size of a large watermelon. It was outside of a screened-in porch, so we got to watch it from safety on the other side of the screen. One night while we were asleep, we were awoken by a loud noise that sounded like something was trying to climb up or get through the metal screens. We looked out the window with a flashlight, but didn't see anything. The next morning, the hornet's nest was a mess. Something had climbed the screen and torn it to shreds. So somewhere out there, there's something that eats hornet larvae in the middle of the night. Maybe a Marten? We still don't know.

    I've never heard of bald face hornets before so thanks for posting that but still shocked that you don't collect the whole nest in a plastic bag or something instead of letting the drones fly out to protect their nest. Just wondering how many more hornet or yellow jacket video's you'll post since everyone has been writing in your comments that it's been the worst year they have seen. Would love to see you use dry ice to kill an underground nest before digging it up.
    I don't think you need to continue with the exit of how many video's you've made and to like and subscribe, maybe try another shorter line or just have it in writing at the end instead? Still another great video though.
