Good lord. Can't believe he took that on himself, wish he showed more of the process for how he did it.

So, standing by it for awhile and letting them get all over him killed it within 24 hours? That's some super power right there boy

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.

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.

Holy fucking shit that thing is huge and terrifying.

The Chinese know how to deal with this sorta shit...

Seems he didn't show the how because it's a "trade secret".

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.

I may have made some very high-pitched screaming noises at the office, this morning.

Maybe.

The last time I found a nest the hard way.

Christ, it makes me wonder what the final boss of Florida is. I was thinking it's that golf course crocodile, but it seems they have no end of terrifying monsters.

Yellow jackets sucks-- by far my least favorite of the bee/wasp tribe. Every other sort would rather just have nothing to do with you, but yellow jackets are actually out to get you.

This is why horror movies don't get me sometimes they are funny...But this is scary.

Yeah what he did to kill them would have been interesting.

RPG-7, TGB-7V -- fire once and never stop running.
