I agree it is not a bees nest but a hornet or wasp's nest , I wouldn't kill normal bees . The suggestion of a garden sprayer with kerosene or similar is one I had not thought of . I do have diesel fuel in pour cans so could go that route . While I would love to just leave it until cooler weather the cooler weather is 4 months away and I don't want to risk injury to myself/wife/grand kids so action needs to be taken . And there will be no video ........ if I have to I'll post the results from the ER
I also had not considered a shotgun blast now that would be fun ! It would be a close quarters shot would # 6 or # 7 shot be a good choice ? Two well placed shots do the trick ?
