Well then, I'm off to the frozen-foods section.Originally Posted by JuniperWoolf
You need to work in a building with a walk-in freezer. I always hang out in the walk-in when it gets over 25 degrees, the cooks find me reading in there when they arrive in the morning.
Uhhhh...
there are bad days and good days just like bad hair days and good hair days I guess...humm haha

As critters go, Yellow Jackets suck.
Yesterday I found a colony of them, unintentionally, with my shovel. I bisected their nest. The neighbors enjoyed watching them chase me across the pasture.
Today I have one regular-sized hand and one catcher’s mitt-sized hand. So I’m off to the pasture with a can of gasoline, a box of matches, hate in my eye, and evil in my heart.
Uhhhh...

Wow. You're lucky--some people don't survive that. A few years back a suburban man was mowing his lawn and didn't know about an underground nest; he was stung to death.
Best time to go after that nest is very early morning when they're still sluggish. Also, I can personally recommend Raid Wasp & Hornet spray. It's pretty much insta-kill. Just wear long sleeves and gloves and stand upwind.

My dad uses a spray can of WD-40 and a lighter to make his own hornet-killing blow torch.

Yikes. Too short-range, and also amounts to holding a napalm grenade if the flame travels back into the can. The Raid has a good long range (the can claims about 20 feet; I haven't measured, but I'd believe it), and every foot of head-start is valuable.

Can't go. Can't NOT go.
I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew.
Mission accomplished.
Thanks for the hornet-slaying tips everybody. Calidore, yours seems well thought-out and totally sane and responsible. I actually had a half can of that stuff in the barn and I used it before I torched them. Juniper, as usual, yours has style and flare. Where is that can of WD-40 I own?
No worries about El Sancho and the Jackets - I get swarmed once or twice a year. I think they like me and I am a clumsy man. My Pop had a weird reaction once. He got stung on the neck, and boom, a big ole goiter popped out. He didnt get stung again for a few years, and then one of the little bastards got him on the hand, and boom, a big ole goiter popped out on his neck.
Uhhhh...
I love science psychology more than almost any other field of study, but I would be the worst clinical psychologist in the world. "Buck up, you're fine. Put a bandaid on it."
