Parrot Tries To Cat
Birds aren't allowed to mess with cats. Every time I find a dead blue jay I'm happy because all a blue jay does all day is fly around squawking at the cats. I know they had to be a satisfying lunch. Go build your nest somewhere else bird-brains.
why? you've never meowed at a cat to mess with it? do you wish the cat grows up and eats you too?

Meh. Let's not provoke the nest of failure.

MASSIVE Yellow Jacket wasp nest in Florida
Trade secret method was probably the old school "catch them early in the morning before they swarm and mist the nest with diesel fuel. The vapor penetrates the nest and kills them.
Problem is, it's not exactly legal to mist a few gallons of diesel into the environment. It's a lot cheaper than the foam stuff though.

Set fire to one probably half that size on the farm once. Smaller sized nests are really common and quite well camouflaged, so you don't really notice them until you look carefully. They are often under grass at the top of banks, or under eaves, just in odd spots that you wouldn't normally look.
The big one we destroyed was just out in the open in the middle of the forest, I wonder how long something of this size takes to develop.

One gets the feeling he edited this video this way because the wasps built their nest around an Acacia tree, and he got stung a couple thousand times.
Wild Bee Removal (Uninstalling Bees)
Wow. That's unlucky. I get those all the time, I probably pull down 15-20 nests a year around my house and garage, and I've never been stung by them.....yet. Granted, I do it at night or early in the morning so they're asleep/cold and can't react, and often just use a hose to spray them down from the overhangs, but they have seemed to be far less aggressive than even my bees, and almost domesticated compared to hornets.
PS: Is it possible your hippy neighbor gets upset not because of what you're poisoning, but because you're poisoning, period? Maybe he would be happy if you just squashed them or hosed the nests down? Many people are hyper sensitive to poisons, some for medical reasons, some for philosophical or ecological reasons. I grow a lot of my own produce at home, so I would be pretty upset if my neighbor started spraying poison on the fence line, because it would get all over my crops, and most insect poisons that cause instant death are not designed to wash off or be human safe. Just a thought.
I have paper wasps that look an awful lot like bees ( https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c5/Wasp_May_2008-11.jpg )
I get dirty looks from my hippy neighbor when I'm spraying for them b/c he's retarded. Know the difference, paper wasps do pollinate, but they are fucking dangerous. I got stung once removing a nest (on accident, i was sawing a low hanging branch and didn't see the nest at all) and got stung on the top of my head. That fucking sting felt like a hot nail being driven into my skin by a hammer. And it felt like every few minutes someone hit the hammer again.

CRAZY ANT BITE!
Why didn't he use it to 'stitch' the wound closed afterwards, like they did in Apocalypto? ;-)
We had these in Texas. Somehow, even with years of blowing up the entrance to the nest with fireworks, I never was bitten as a kid. Lucky me.
Before @ant gets too upset, they used the firework paper to rebuild the nest every time, so it wasn't as bad as it sounds.
Instant Payback
I'm kind of sad it wasn't a milkshake, but I hope the pop was at least non-diet and she fell asleep in her car near an ant nest in the next few days.

Timelapse snakes steals eggs from birds nest
Hmm, I wonder if the local snakes ate the new baby chicks from their nest a few days ago over here. Or maybe it was the noisy loud crows. http://aqfl.net/node/11840 for my blogs about them.
Magpie pretending to be a bat
Magpies are brilliant. My in-laws have a lot of them around, and quite often have a 'pet' one who has fallen out of a nest and needs help.
After a time they always rejoin a wild group, but while they are young they're hilarious.
They'll troll cats constantly, chase a big (crybaby) German shepherd around the house trying to pull his tail, and most of them are happy to accompany my dad-in-law to the pub for free chips and beer.
