2 Wasp Nests in One House! Yellow Jacket and Hornet Removal!

A client called me wih an emergency wasp nest removal when we noticed he was getting yellow jackets inside his home! When I arrived there was a MASSIVE German Yellow Jacket nest inside the flooring joist bay of his home and a Bald Faced Hornet nest on his electrical meter. I removed the bald faced nest first, then I opened the basement ceiling to extract the massive German nest!

No more stings on your wrists!!! Thanks for the shout out - we were just talking about you. My parents are struggling with a massive nest in their house!

I greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness! I've used those every day since! Thank you!

[@BubaLabinski223]

Hey Jeff Barry from Lebanon how you doing bud I’m going to see this because of that jerk that spun his tires or whatever there’s always one in your neighborhood. For instance, I got a guy here in Lebanon where I live he’s 70 years old owns a mustang with a sinker 5.0 L or bigger always takes off like a bat out of Hades, and or downshifts right in front of my house now I to the question you said about freezing the nest to neutralize the bees, and you said about the larva being alive the bird eat, the larvae, even if they’re dead are they that finicky and tweety bird that was biting ya I got bit by an ostrich I was feeding it lawn green beans and he took it down and then next thing you know he got the rest of it down and he bit my finger I mean he was slick hurt to

[@JimAllen-Persona]

I have him to thank for making me less afraid of yellow jackets. Just yesterday we had people over for dinner and a few foraging yellow jackets showed up. Last year, I probably would’ve killed them. This year, I just tolerated them and let them be. Since I did have company over, I did have a can of the spray out so I could’ve gotten rid of the yellow jackets if they bothered my guests but it wasn’t needed.

It's interesting that they would not be attacking each other with them entering nests in such close proximity. Are any of them territorial? That was an interesting removal situation. Thank you for sharing it. Please stay safe, and God bless.

[@paulf2529]

I think they communicate with peremones scents, and the two nests would be different, scents, the same with honey bees, different scent markers betwwen colonies and hives.

What you need is a box freezer to put your wasps in so they are not in your kitchen fridge. Love watching all your videos. I just hate it when I run out of new videos to watch, so I go back as far as you have filmed and start over.

[@sandyaw3057]

Thanks for another informative video Brett. I was really surprised to see the bald faced hornets so close to the yellow jackets. Does that happen often? You and your family have a god night! ❤️

Great extractions. It's amazing just how many individual yellowjackets there are in some of these nests. Sweety seemed to have a taste for your arm and hand today, the pesky thing, lol. Watching them run around was a lot of fun. Sometimes I wish you would do a video of just a day in the life of your birdies. Good luck on the next extractions.

[@carpetbilly]

New viewer here, when you said that you were going to put them in the freezer, I thought you might have a big freezer in the storage unit or something where you keep other bees, I was shocked when you put them in your own fridge/freezer with food. LOL... I wouldnt want to bring any kind of insect or bee near my food, id be scared shitless at night, thinking they gonna attack me!! lol Great vid!

I just wanted to say a quick Thank You to you, Hornet 🐝 King for inspiring me to get several heritage breed 🦃 turkeys (one Royal Palm tom & 4 Blue 💙 Slates). My stepmom mistakenly bought the large-breasted turkeys two years ago and they cannot breed without help, so I got ones that can do all of that without my help and are super smart to boot.😊 I've loved watching you with your different birds, so adding a few more turkeys to the order birds (chickens, geese, 🪿 and guineafowl) made perfect sense. Plus I've watched yours long enough to see the different personalities that they each have. They're so funny 😂 in the morning as they fly 🕊️ and race around! So, Hornet King, you not only taught me about hornets, you taught me about your birds. If I have emus in a couple years, I'm blaming you. 😂 Just kidding. I don't need to blame anyone; my husband knows who he married. 😅 Thanks again!

[@warriorcatriversoul5031]

I actually have an old nest in a very similar spot to the one in that house's basement! Massive- bigger than a soccer ball! Only difference really is its wrapped around an exhaust pipe over our breakers and we haven't put in insulation yet. Just hangs right into my bedroom, very cool conversation starter imo 😊

[@amberbydreamsart5467]

Appreciate you being willing to make a special run for an allergic client! My mom is deathly allergic to honeybee stings, it can be quite a scary situation to have critters you're allergic to stuck in your house, scared or territorial

[@donnaleighjenkins4952]

Hi there! I have been a subscriber for many years, at least 8yrs maybe more, and I still LOVE watching as much as I did in the beginning! So fun and exciting! Your animals are adorable!! I was noticing the Emu you were feeding, she was eating the entire comb! I guess the "nest part" won't hurt her or you wouldn't let her eat it. I've learned a lot about wasps by watching you! Thank you for always a great show!!🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@PittsburghTimeMachine]

I have a similar situation - 2 nests in my backyard that seemed to appear overnight. One is Eastern hornets I think. The other is bees in a tree trunk, but I can’t get that close because the hornets are in the way. It sucks, everyone in my area who deals with this stuff seems to be booked because it’s a busy year. I even called you but I’m too far.

[@Sharpless2]

dont try to mess with them yourself; horrible idea. Seen it on one of my friends... poor guy. just wait until someone that can remove them safely is free.

[@lorenrobertson8039]

Great show as always! I tell so many people about you when the topic of wasps, hornets and such come up. I watch a lot of bee wrangling videos as well as farm/homesteader videos. You aren't too near any of them to go do jobs in their areas, but I still tell them to come watch your channel. I think you are so brave and good at your job. And then the treat of getting to watch all your birdies eat the larvae out of the comb is so fun! Adding so much protein to their diets. I'm just always amazed at how you handle these terrifying creatures. TY for doing what you do! And how you talk to all your dinosaurs! lol

[@briandevillier9850]

You are awesome brother.

[@isettech]

I had some smaller ones around the outside of the house. They had comb, but no envelope. They were very chill, and let me hing out about 3 feet from the nest where I thinned the returning foragers with an electric flyswatter in the late afternoon.After the numbers were down, used a garden sprayer with water and a little bit of dish soap. With the stream of soap on the exposed comb, they had very few get to fly away. After the soapy water took care of most of the nest, returned after dark and sprayed again to take care of returning foragers. Somehow, they did not recognize me as the source of their problems. Did not have a single attack. I guess the spray from a distance is effective at knocking down the swarm defense response. The ones that took flight, left the area to return later. They did not come to attack me. Even while spraying them, I stood very still, which probably helped. After spraying, I took one small nest down and put it in a jar to see of the soap killed the larva. It did not. Put the next in a jar and I have had one hatch out so far. Gave him a piece of chicken for his troubles. The small comb had 3 capped cells, so expect a couple more to hatch out soon. The one that hatched out is wary of me. When I reach for the jar to view him, he responds by hiding on the fair side of the comb. He is interesting to watch.

[@juliaunderwood7224]

Just love the chickens and the chirping they make as they're eating. Love your videos. From Julie

[@brettthornsberry7169]

[@robertbrighton9797]

Spent some time in America for most of august. Really was quite striking how many different species of wasp and hornet I saw. Especially the big hornets at night time which you’d never see in the UK. But it really makes sense that more US homes house nests because so many are made of wood pretty much where in the UK we are all brick built. We get nests in homes don’t get me wrong but no where near the scale in America

Bald Faced Hornets are definitely the most aggressive/sensitive wasp species I’ve personally seen, you can’t even turn on a vacuum without getting instantly swarmed by 3/4ths of the nest. I’ve seen other people set up cameras 10 ft away from the nest and they’ll come right now and attack it! Talk about relentless onslaught of angry hornets 😂

I got stung 6 times by cranking my weedeater just because they were about 20ft away.

[@Beauty-and-the-Dia-betes]

When I read the title of this video I was wondering how you'd remove both without causing a double swarm. The good old freezer technique works well, we'd leave them in our freezer for four days so we were sure they were dead. It still didn't prevent parts of some insects finding their way into our ice trays. It never bothered hubby, but with me being deathly allergic to hymenoptera I couldn't take a chance. I always enjoy seeing your pets enjoying their food, and your emu look like they're having lots of fun.
