Put safety first. Wasps and hornets can sting numerous times and will do so aggressively, if provoked. Remember that this type of pest removal can be very risky even if you are not allergic, and proceed with caution. If you are unsure, call a professional for advice; you might wish to use his/her services if the risks to you outweighs your desire to do it yourself.
1
Locate the nest. A hornet's nest is a paper or mud-like construction often shaped like a pine cone, upside down beehive, or just a mass lump. Hornets will look for a sheltered location to make their nest, and such nests can be found under leaves, in tree branches, on windows, in attics, under rafters, inside abandoned buildings or vehicles, etc. Any space that is protected from the weather and undisturbed can attract hornets to nest.
2. Bagging the Hornets
This method can be useful when there are two of you to complete the task and the nest is growing lower, such as off a tree branch or bush. Do this during the evening, when the hornets are less active.
3.Wear the right gear. Cover yourselves from head to toe, to protect you from stings. Wear thick clothing, gloves, safety glasses or goggles.
Yes you can shoot a hornets nest. It is possible although I wouldn't recommend it. And like the guy above said why is this question under the sports category??
This question is under the "Basketball" category, so I'm confused... Can you update this so I might be able to answer it?
I don't understand this question.... Can you update this?
Has anyone done it? obviously your going to have a huge swarm of pissed off bugs coming at you but it's one way to get rid of it. If you do this how long are they "pissed off" for?
