Get a five gallon bucket. Pour about 1/2 gallon of gas in bucket. Get a brick or two. GO up to hole at night when the bees are not as active. Pour the gas in and put the bucket over the hole. Put brick on top of bucket. can remove bucket 24 hours later. The fumes will kill all of them providing there is not another exit hole near by.

Go to the Dollar store and get a 3 liter bottle of sprite or other carbonated drink. Dump it down the hole and the carbonation will suffocate them throughout the nest. Unless you like to see the fireball the gasoline will make

I found a nest, well, actually they found me, the other day that must have been huge. Got stung three times before I could get away. Went to the truck, filled a 32oz Powerade bottle full of gas, sneaked back and poured that in their hole leaving the bottle. 5 minutes later there was what looked like a couple of hundred flying around the bottle. Went back two days later and now they were going in and out of a new hole near the base of a pine tree a couple of feet from the still in place Powerade bottle. Over a 30 minute period I hit the new hole with a can and a half of spray from Home Depot but never did kill them all. Finally mowed, at top speed, as close to the tree as possible and called it good.

Are you near tuscaloosa I'll come out and take care of them for $125.

Sure, if you call Baldwin County close. Anyway, the nest was/is on a property I cut, not mine.

I am a pyro.....I'll do it for the "hold my beer" effect.

word on the street is you can rev up a weedeater and hold it over the hole.

Back a bush hog over the hole and chop their heads off

No freaking match!! Remember this!!

I was talking to the guy that started the post

I do it for a living...

After sundown...Pour you some gas in the hole...quart ...gallon whatever...put you a can of tannerite beside it. Back of 100 yards. Turn on video. Shoot tannerite and get a double explosion for your buck???

2 Hits and a visit to the ER? Did I read that right?

Hope you are well!

Throwing a match into a gas vapor area is just plain damn stupid.

A quart or two of water with about a cup of dawn dish soap will kill them dead. Mark the hole so you can find it again, come back at night, pour into hole, walk away.

Insects dead, environments still good.

I tried the dawn and water, it worked good

Yes! A friend of mine was trying to light a brush pile using gasoline, conditions were just right, he had a cloud of vapor around him, so when he lit the brush, the vapor caught and burned him over about 60% of his body. Almost died. If his wife hadn't been close enough to help kill the flames, he would have.

Been hit 13x this year. 9 the fist and 4 the second. Luckily I'm not allergic to them but they still hurt like _____!!! 20oz coke bottle full and push it and leave it nose down in the hole. Your job is then complete. If you want to follow with ignition its your right to do so and may make you feel better (emotionally).
