Mebbe the wasps/hornets I kill are wimps...but I've never had a single problem with modest size hornets nests the size of a bowling ball, and the Spectracide COMMERCIAL stuff, purchased at my Stihl/Scag dealer (not Lowes/HD) just works. Drops 'em....instant death...but I still run like a scalded dawg....just in case :). Yellow jackets have taught me well....they don't like flashlights much ;).

The local depertment of natural resources obliterates bald-headed hornets' nests on sight with some kind of chemical. Nuking them with fire from space is completely reasonable.

Ive taken down a few of those with just a garden hose. It is my offensive, and defensive weapon at the same time. I just keep sprayin' and don't let anything get near me .

Unfortunately a water spigot is too far away to use a hose .

Hair spray is NOT the way to do it. Hair spray will give you a 18-24" big fireball. Do you really want to get that close?

I haven't do it in years, but (very specifically) Thrust Quick Start Fluid (20 years ago, at least) would give you a 4-8' stream of fire. Much better to be farther away.

Can you rent or borrow a honey badger?

Start a small, controllable fire in the vicinity and call out the Fire Department.

Water balloon gun. Just sayin'.

rfuerst911sc 08-04-2019 10:39 AM

The wife went and bought a spray can of death ! So tonight if it isn't raining I will do the deed. My plan is get close maybe 2 ' away and load up the entrance then start the retreat while continuing to empty the can . Not ruling out running and screaming like a girl !!!

svandamme 08-04-2019 10:55 AM

'55 or '56 - but for sure its a Belair / trim. The 3 spoke steering wheel is the clue.
