Red Wasp

[Caustic Burno]

In my lifetime I have bought a semi trailer or wasp spray.
Today I mixed up Permethrin in my quart pump up spayer it killed them Black Flag Dead.
I took out a half dozen nest in the top of the barn.
I will never buy that high priced spray again.

Yes sir it will do that ... I also spray my dogs with permethrin and spray them weekly keeps ticks and fleas off of them.

 

[jedstivers]

Just a little malathion will wipe them out too. I use soppy water on them too, it's better than gas.

I think you gotta keep that permethrin away from cats.

Buddy had one to many Busch's and sprayed his wife's little toy dog a little to much. Found it in the pond a couple of days later. He can't think of anything else that would have killed it. His wife and daughter liked to have shot him.

We put some dish soap in a fire extinguisher with water and air it up to 120psi. The wasps can't fly with soap on wings and die fast. We have sprayed 7 inch wide nests and never been stung.

Light a newspaper afire and hold it up to the nest. Burns their wings off.

 

[chippie]

soap water works like a charm.

this is off topic. ga.prime, you avatar's tan reminds me of a Oompa Loompa. Kind of orange isn't she?

Guy burned down a old church over here that was over a 100 year's old trying to burn some off the old porch..
It went up like gasoline it was built out of heart pine.

WD-40 and a lighter used to work pretty good, but I hear they changed the formula so it doesn't light off easily anymore.

Every spring and again late summer or early fall, I mix up 25 gal batches of permethrin or malation and spray my whole yard with my little 4 wheeler sprayer tank, including under my house with the wand, up to the eaves and up in the floor joists. Where greybeard goes, nothin grows.

That's ok buddy. Found out that Demon WP mixed double strength will either kill or make extremely sick just about every kind of rose bush and flower in the yard. :cry2:

If it keeps cats away, I need to buy me some!

Kinda hard for 'em to fly with their wings burned to a crisp.

Flame on.

(no, I don't recommend this method to anyone less crazy than myself or to novices not familiar with flamethrowers, and it's NOT to be implemented in a hay barn)

A few days ago I went to move one of those little 3pt booms that used to be common on Ford 9n tractors, and was promptly rewarded with an onslaught from them dang guinea wasps. They got me good. Yellow jackets on steroids.
