whoever says they sleep at night, ill never try that again. There used to be another bees nest by my house a couple years backand my dads one buddy said they sleep at night so..the logical thing to do would be to get a bag, put it underneath the nest, and cut the branch so the nest falls in the bag right....wrong. As soon as they cut the branch the backyard sounded like a honda with a fartcan. Meanwhile the whole time my sister and aunt were having their b-day party in the backyard the whole time this is going. Now it was late and there were that many people there so there were any kids. the guy holding the bag went running for his life so now the bees nest is sitting on the ground and bees are flying everywhere. They eventually blasted it with raid. It was quite funny though.

Can of Axe deotorient and a lighter does pretty cool too...

My mother has this thing on her back porch that is like a globe. It has slits on the bottom for bugs to fly into and honey on the top (on this inside of course) to attract the bugs. The only problem is once they fly in, they can't get out.

Goddamn I wish I had a hornet's nest just so I could try that. It sounds fun as hell, but with my luck I'd either burn a) my own house down or b) a neighbor's house down.

Go out and put a big garbage bag underneath it and cut it off the branch it is on. Let it fall in the bag and quickly tie it up. Then simply discard on garbage day. If you want to make sure they are dead, fill the bag with wasp/insect killer before dropping the nest in the bag.
Don't listen to him.....he's setting you up for failure.

If you do try this method...video tape it!!

no one should ever waste their money on wasp/insect sprays..... A. they are all the same B. Get a Miracle Grow Sprayer, fill it with DAWN dishwashing soap, and it will kill them just as fast... Just and FYI the soap clogs their breathing just like the wasp sprays etc. but costs 500% less..... and you can have a 5foot by 20 foot spray on it....

Man, none of you guys have ever fired a 12ga at a wasps nest??? That is the best!!

Just like it says take a 12ga shotgun, shoot the nest. All the wasps/hornets that aren't dead from pellets are so messed up from the concussion of the shot that they just fall to the ground where you and your friends can just stomp them. My dad and I use this method all the time, never once been stung. It is actually quite funny to see the wasps flying around retarded and running into things and knocking themselves out.

Believe it or not Rim cleaner kills them on contact.



A supersoaker full of gas or hair spray with a zippo close by will make for fun times.

We had one of those in a field by my house and we put one of those artillery shell fireworks (the kind that you drop in the tube) under it. I lit it and ran like hell. Watching the thing explode was awesome. Otherwise, like everybody else said, use fire, its your friend

Ok, so this may not kill them but i've had to great suggestions so far.

But for the hell of it get a few roman candles, and just have fun shooting it.

If you really want to kill them whip up some home made napalm....i mean....fire the **** out of it...


And for the record NOBODY likes to see a logical end to a simple situation....
