Bucket of death : soapy water vs hornets : dish soap on wasps

In this video ‪@wasphunter7131‬ deals with a high up bald face hornet nest in a customers tree. I Utilize a gotcha sprayer attachment. Gotcha sprayers are a amazing tool to treat high up wasp nests without getting too close and getting stung or swarmed. I’ve used the attachment in the past on hornets and wasp but this time I give a better explanation of how it’s used as a effecting pest control tool

[@dkelban]

[@myfastcars]

The wasps all go to hive at night. Get some footage ridding a hive at night. Plug the EXIT HOLE with a stopper and see if you can get an entire nest of hornets without swarming!! Then dunk that nest in soapy water!

[@PRND21]

I thought for sure that you would bring the bucket up to the nest, but you went for the 3 point shot! 😂 I’m going to try a soapy drowning method on a yellow jacket nest in the ground tonight! Wish me luck 🍀

[@mojothelittleones113]

Finally got my first bald faced hornet call.

[@breeze787]

I bought a can of Wasp/Hornet bug spray and read the instructions. Yeah I read the instructions. Anyways it says to wait till twilight or night to spray the hornets nest b/c the hornets all get back to the nest at night and is the most effective time for full and complete elimination. The next day there was absolutely no activity. And I cut the entire nest off the branch complete and whole and put it in a trash liner and that was it no mess no fuss. Maybe the soapy water works but man what a hassle.

[@hagerz]

As always quite entertaining. Looking forward to seeing more videos.

I don't know exactly why, but I love these videos. You are like the Bob Ross of wasps! I wish you only sprayed the nest with soapy water since that's how the average person would do it.... None of us would dunk the hole thing in a bucket. Would just spraying soapy water work to kill them all? thanks for the great videos!!!

[@birdnest5814]

Happy to see how well the dish soap did, but hope you can find a better sprayer. I had been waiting for a video from you. Too bad for us that it’s been a slow season 🤣 I just saw they’ve renamed the murder hornets to Northern Giant Hornet. I guess so people won’t be so scared of them? 🤔🙄😆

You had two problems: 1) you don't cut down the nest, and 2) you spray the hell out of the nest and stragglers with a GOOD sprayer. Soapy water works WELL. You also need to use DAWN , The Best degreasing dish cleaner. That really does them in?

[@wasphunter7131]

Yep when I was at the pest control company I used to keep a bottle of dawn in my tool box it worked amazing with the boxelder bugs also the de greasing part dries the oils in their wings and is a almost instant knockdown

[@joeyvanostrand3655]

After being attacked by a nest full of insanely irate in astoundingly organized, what seemed and felt like a swarm of, ground wasps 2 years ago I went hunting for solutions. You were not the first video suggestion on KZbin but you were definitely the most accurate, the most lethal, the most effective, and the safest practitioner of your particular art form. Oh, and by solutions I'm referring to murdering every last one of those little bastards. Finding their Queen and killing her while they stand by and watch, and subsequently digging up the rest of their underground hovel to joyfully repay them for their hospitality earlier that day. I unfortunately found the nest with the mower ball portion of the DR trimmer mower. Quite by accident. In all honesty where they were located, I would have instituted the age old mantra of "Live and Let Live". Upon whipping the ever-loving shit out of the entrance and first comb of their underground hovel they quickly and amazingly sent out a call to arms and we're intelligent enough to know that it wasn't the responsibility of that machine that attacked them but mine and mine alone. It's still amazes me how quickly it happened. And how relentless they were in their assault and their pursuit of me. I've seen videos, just like everybody else has of people being attacked by wasps. How they flail, dance around, scream, yell, simultaneously beg and curse God .. I never understood the panic. 'Till that shit happened to me. And thanks to you, I will never be victimized by these useless insects ever again. I know what to look for. I know how to act around their nest while I'm prepping for their demise. And I am eternally grateful to you for not just providing what's considered a rarity on KZbin. Useful and informative content.

Nicely done! I have been spraying wasp nest with a mixture of cleaning products! They all work pretty good. U don’t always have to buy an expensive can of bug killer! I have been trying ammonia mixed stuff too! They breathe through their abdomen area!? Soak their back side & literally watch them smother! The soap does the same thing! I still rather pour gas down a hole for ground Yellowjackets! The liquid & vapor kills them. It’s fun to light it on fire too…. Honeybees… I try to leave them alone.🤘🏼👌👋🏼

Great tip … I had no idea that would even work. I’m curious, what is the approximate going rate for wasp nest removal?

[@wasphunter7131]

Depending on the gas used to get there I typically charge between $50-100 mainly to cover gas and products I’ve been told by my customers the pest companies are charging $150 per nest, if a customer has 3-4 nests I charge the same as if they have 1 so depends who you go through

[@kevinsalyers690]

Seen a guy on here called nates world and he used 7 dust and a air compressor and shot it up in the house corner and it took them out without ripping everything apart

It's been my experience that soapy water does nothing, but drown them. The larvae are still wiggling after they dry out. I LOVED your videos on the spray foam! The Great Foam really filled up all the nooks & crannies! I hate bugs!!! We had a bee hive with 3 queens behind our aluminum siding after they initially installed our cable television. After I killed 278 bees in my bedroom, the exterminator was finally able to close off the entrance, kill all the larvae & the queens...all 3 of them!!! It took him 4 visits. July, August end of September and then December 1. Even he couldn't believe I was still killing drones in my bedroom. I brought him upstairs and there were 2 more that he killed...then he believed me! We had to get the aluminum siding on the side of the house replaced! I still think we should have sent Vision Cable Co the bill!!! Jerk didn't caulk the hole he made in the outside of our house!

[@anon_y_mousse]

I've heard that all insects have a hydrophobic layer that protects them should they be submerged and that soap prevents it from working which allows them to drown. If that's really true, then dunking the nest in a bucket of soapy water may be what did it this time over your previous attempt. Cool either way.

Yeah, many of them just drowned. But soapy water spray does work; it foams up their breathing apparatus & they suffocate. I dripped soapy water on a mass of ants (basically the same anatomy as wasps) from a sponge once. Within minutes, zero activity.
