Why You Should Never Approach A Yellow Jacket Nest - Instant Attack Mode! Mousetrap Monday 

Just before dawn they are coldest so move least and are yet to emerge

Yeah but that doesn't make for good content.

Flames, it has to be done with flames. 🔥🔥🔥

@@ImpendingJoker You could use them as bait for freshwater fishing.

​@@BobelPophe does

Damn this sounds horrible… glad you made it out safe though

😢😢 bless you🫶

Nice, were you wearing coveralls and rubber boots when you were doing the strimming?

@@mountainviewcattle Definitely not, I would have passed out from heat exhaustion long before I got to their nest if I was. It was a long time ago but pretty sure I was wearing shorts, a t-shirt, and sandals.

The same thing happened to me. I got stung 13 times. I think it was 6 or 7 on the top of my head alone. They won the battle that day, but later that night I came back and won the war!

​@@fillgYou weedwhack in shorts and sandals? You must like pain.

Trimmer u mean a weed wacker ?

I hope more yellow jackets invade and sting everyone

I’ve got a few good ones as well.Practically identical to this one.I’m not as charismatic as Shawn but the content is interesting ADAMEX ENVIRONMENTAL

Do they smoke menthol or regular?

@@joeyvindictive3552menthol, of course.

That's right, they will light on you and alternately bite and sting, over and over. At least, according to my father.

@@joeyvindictive3552weed

they will bite you in fall after they stop laying eggs ( they are angry cause they are starving to death)

We are all Gods creatures.

Carburetor cleaner or starting fluid works wonders also

Interesting. Wonder if that would work here. We mostly have red hornets, ground hornets and paper wasps.

I’d love a video of the process 😅😂😂😂😂! I hate them! Foaming wasp spray does wonders too! 20-25 ft! Drench the entrance hold & wait a few days! Then kill the remnants!? Throw some gas on da nest!😅😂😂😂😂 Then check activity again! I want to do them before the try to do me!😅

I thought that too

He has done that in the past.

He has one video where he feeds the nest to skunks.

Im sure he did

He usually does exactly that

I saw that one too. Man, those things are terrifying.

The best way to catch super hornets would be an aircraft carrier’s arresting wire!

Link?

need the link

@@dedoyxp it's literally in the comment above yours.

😮😮😮😮😳😳😳

I thought it was Folger's in your cup? ☕ 😅

@@boomshakalaka415 Na, that's the best part of waking up!

The best part of THURSDAY is CAMPING WITH STEVE WALLIS The best part about SUNDAYS is MAV

I used that method to clear out a small wasp nest under my grill a few years ago. I must have learned it from his channel.

Hey, that's not a bad idea..

ants and wasps are closely related , here in AZ in my yard i have the maricopa harvester ant, their sting is worse than a yellow jacket’s it’s got a neurotoxin or two in them

Yellowjacket Ytuesday, please.

I think he knocked just to show an example of how vicious they are to vibrations.

Yeah he's done that before. If I recall correctly it was a skunk that enjoyed the feast.

@@explorenaked Yeah, 'Stinky' got it before.

😮 i never thought about anything like that before

yellow jackets are hornets not wasps .

This is exactly how I describe it to people. It feels like a hot ember from a camp fire has landed on your skin that you didn't know was there and goes from kind of a "wait, what is that?" feeling to searing pain like it's burning into your skin- all in a matter of a few seconds. Pain level varies depending on where your stung- so far for me, getting stung on the finger was the worst.

@@kevinmach730 I got stung on the tip of my tongue, that was the worst. It landed in my coffee cause of the creamer. I didn’t know until it was too late. My tongue was swollen for 5 or 6 days.

Been there, done that. Ouch

we left a idling lawn mower over the hole of one while we ate lunch. we moved the mower and the was so many chopped up bees . we still had to used hornet spray that night to finish the job ….. nasty !!! stay safe Shawn 👍🏼

Bahahahah love your story! I tried glue traps & fly paper near their entrance! They get curious & would fly into the glue traps! I have used wasp spray foam on ground nest! Works good too! Above ground is another story! Haven’t tried wasp spray foam! I’d like to try fly paper! Place a lot at night on a hanger type object & put near their entrance! Sun comes up they fly into it!😮😅😂😂😂 I’m betting it will diminish their hive/colony too! I love taking them out! I have only took out 2 hives! No stings so far! 😅

@@orlandojohnson5742 I’d imagine fly strips would get messy if placed near your house and could even catch unsuspecting birds and such. Same for glue boards. Getting stung is never fun.

I used a shop vac for a yellowjacket hive in the siding of house wall about 3 feet above ground level. I placed the vac at the main entrance/exit and turned it on with the shop vac filled with water. After one hour I went back to check to find hundreds drown. Repeated this for 3 straight days with same result. I finally called an exterminator. He said the hive probably had thousands inside my sidings . He applied his professional spray and told me it works because the insects get the poison on their feet and then enter the hive to infect those inside. It cost me $125 but ended this invasion of my home in just a few hours. He sprayed around the base and roof area of my entire home during the process. That was 3 years ago and I haven't had any more yellowjacket problems but some of my neighbors sure have.

I like your style. Let's all introduce some hard core high brow linguistics into the narrative.

I am a Sailplane Pilot, and we refer to Power Plane Pilots as "Fan addicts." They are addicted to the fans on the front of their craft. Just watch how they sweat when the fan stops.

@@mountainviewcattle "light astronomy"

Yup this is my go to method as well; I use Dawn dish soap. A garden sprayer for large nests and just a plastic spray bottle for smaller ones. For anyone wanting to try this I’ve found the key is to use lots of soap. Just getting your sprayer to spit out water with some bubbles isn’t enough. The water coming out has to have enough soap in it that it feels noticeably slippery when you spray it on your hand. Do this and they drop within seconds.

Because you weren't around their nest.

Or to the chickens.

“…dope..” ? ? Like weed or hash ?

@@robertwilliamson922 Yes. Yes, the context of my comment CLEARLY connotates weed, and or hash. Glad you would come to that obvious conclusion during a Wasp video

@@devanwc23 Hmmmm…..well you did use the the word “…dope..” after all. Didn’t you? In my region…the word dope is used when referring to mind altering substances. Weed and hashish being the two most common illegal brain cell damaging forms of dope.

@@robertwilliamson922 Yes, I used that word. And if you took out all context from my comment and only isolated that single word in an attempt to derive my meaning, your conclusion is not irrational
