No but you would be able to have multiple Bear Grylls.

I had a huge hornets nest in a bush at my house. You couldn't get within 20 ft without getting bit. So i came up with the best idea ever to get rid of them: I conviced my friend that hornets couldn't sting through duct tape and wrapped him head to toe in the stuff (over clothing, not skin). He walked up to them with a can of Oust and a lighter and burnt the ever-living shit out of them (and the bush). It was the best day ever.

ED - was there booze involved? Please say yes.

[Eddie Dean]

Actually, I don't remember, but it was on a saturday in the middle of summer, so probably.

[cerveza_fiesta]

I see a video camera. Can you post that somehow?

it would be really and truly great to see that in action.

[Eddie Dean]

It's not on a digital camcorder, so I don't know how to get it on the computer, but I'll see what I can do.

Can't you smoke out bees and stuff? Alternatively, get naked and smash up their nest with a stick.

This whole plan could work on the hippies too!

You can't smoke out Hippies! They just get happy and sing!

[Aptorian]

Hold the hippies up at gun point and force them to fight the hornets to the death.

This works on the Hornets too... wait a second.

Alternatively I recommend harnessing the power of the insects and becoming a Canadian super villain calling yourself "SWARM".

For your first caper you could rob the national honey reserve.

the hard way -
1. get a ladder.
2. at night time put the ladder under the nest.
3. climb up the ladder holding a plastic bag under the nest.
4. slowly bring the bag up from the bottom and encircle the out side, leaving the top open and ready to close around the nest.
5. quickly close the bag and make very sure that there are no openings for the swarm to escape from
6. run like crazy towards the entrance to the hippies
7. launch the bag into the room, closing the door behind you.
8. thank Bent for his sound advice

the easy way -

get your wife to do steps 1-8....

Oh my! That outfit looked like it took a lot of effort. Who got the blue tape for the D on his chest? And in summer! Wasn't he a bit hot?

[RodeoRanch]

Tell the hippies to suck it and use some Raid.

[Zanth13]

obviously your only other alternative to battling these hornets is to bring it a massive colony of bees that can swarm then and then buzz there wings and raise the tempature of the hornet thus cooking and killing it....

its how mother nature does it...

Yes, that would certainly eliminate any problems with air-borne colonies.

Yes it was like a 100 degrees out that day. Thankfully, my friend is a dumbcrack who does stupid stuff when we bug him enough about it.

I've got a tenacious yellowjacket nest in a ledge on the outside of my house. My family and I have killed roughly 200 of them over the last two weeks, and they're probably out there now eating through the foam and caulk covering the entrance to the nest. Just like they did yesterday.

Sonuvabeetches are going to get Raided so hard tomorrow.

[Abyss]

The raid distance spray works v nicely. If you use it early or late in the day you can get most of the hive 'at home'.
Oh, and if they act up tell the hippies they are one allergic reaction away from an occupiers liability lawsuit.


- Abyss, will however note that nuking them from orbit is the only way to be sure.

You're sure CN-20 nerve gas won't work?

[beru]

i prefere to use crocodile shermans or stürmtigers to do the "removal of the Swarm..."

[cauthon]

Over here, you are supposed to call the fire department and they come and take care of it for you (at no cost to you).
