I do have one of these bad boys I use for when I need to burn wood for wood working projects. Afraid I might set the shed on fire though. You wait until now to tell us this. What is the worst that can happen lol

Lol right... bad thing is it’s inside the damn shed with them lol. But really it just shoots super hot bursts, it takes a while to actually catch the wood on fire when you’re charting it for wood working you gotta really hold it on. I imagine this would be good to just fry em real quick.

If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

My luck I’d get popped and drop the torch in the shed and burn it down. I know I’ve dropped the wasp spray while running away several times.

I finally had to resort to gas.. They have a huge nest with 1000+ bogies. Mine weren't red wasps luckily. THIS is the way to do it. Did you light it? My folks bought a place in '68 south of Fbg. that had a lot of ancient out buildings and an old barn. Some of the red wasp nests were 2, 2&1/2 feet wide. We made torches on long poles. Man it was fun. To this day though, I never enter a dark, old structure without looking up and all around almost instinctively. I chronicled it on here. They built a nest in ground under a wood pile. It was huge. Few thousand maybe? I just poured in on so no match. They died. I tried boiling water, soap, spray but I was just running for my life each time. One time night turned even darker there were so many flying around it was nuts.

You need a ping pong paddle in one hand and wasp spray in the other and go to killing

I loaded some shotgun shells up with that oil absorbing floor sweep stuff. Cheap redneck entertainment when you blast a nest with it.
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

I found a hour before day break on opening morning of MLD season a nest about the size of the cross section of a football in my blind covered in red wasps. RTVed back to camp, grabbed 2 new cans of HotShot wasp spray, back to blind. Used a full can to knock them all down but there were still a bunch crawling around on the floor/chairs. I waited a few more minutes before crawling in (carefully) and started smushing those still crawling around. By the end of the hunt, I had gone thru almost all the 2nd can also, just seemed to make them sick but not kill them... I would NOT recommend HotShot brand!!! I usually buy the Spectracide brand and they are dead by the time they hit the ground. And for what it's worth, I had one of the stripes hanging in the stand.

A solo cup with about 8 ounces of straight gasoline has always done the trick for me. As others have said, hit it at night.

Might want to rethink the Spectracide brand. I had used it for years with good results but last year and this year not so much. The only one I have found this year that knocks them dead is RAID.
