MASSIVE European Hornet Nest Inside Tree | SWARM | Wasp Nest Removal

MASSIVE Hornets Nest cut out of a tree with a chainsaw; The nest fed to my chickens and my SQUIRREL! The MASSIVE swarm is dealt with and vacuumed up for my client!
Species: Vespa crabro (aka European Hornet). "Hornets" (Vespa) are a type of "wasp" (Vespinae). European Hornets are the only established hornet species in the States. There are some controversial arguments that Vespa mandarinia (Asian Giant Hornets) are established in the States; which they are not. A couple colonies removed from a isolated area in the entire country does not constitute as "Established". European Hornets are STILL the only Hornet species in the States.

As a farm boy who lives in the UK, I have NEVER considered our hornets to be gentle giants, they always, ALWAYS attack first and ask questions once you're gone, I had a young queen who was just starting out building her nest repeatedly try and get to me through the solid glass panes of a tractor cab after disturbing her by accident as she began her new nest under some wooden boards I had to move, she did not stop so I destroyed the nest with the loader and finally she left. These ones you're dealing with look pretty small in comparison, the ones I frequently came across were about the size of my middle finger in length 41/2" long and chunky armoured b@st-rds. It is also nice to see your work from start to finish.

[@COCO-uf3sm]

Literally I found a queen Asian hornet in my bedroom window after hearing a loud buzzing sound this thing was hugeeee and orange it filled a 1 pint glass this thing was extremely aggressive, once I caught it bashing into the glass trying to get to me, I was extremely fast catching it because of the sheer size, wanted it gone, I didn't dare tackle it so I threw it on a large spider Web on my back garden. Never wanna see one again truly awful creatures. Had to kill it due to our laws against Asian hornets, magnificent creature but very invasive to our bee population I'm still thankful I found it before it got into the foundation of my house that wouldn't have been good 😂

Real painful and scary. I have also tackled a nest in the loft at home, twice in fact, but they seem to like coming back. Must check again soon.

I was almost to the very end (about 30-40 feet, on a plankway thankfully) when I heard a buzzing, rolled onto my back, and there was a (gedehams) nest about two feet from my face (the Danish name. Similar to the type and size of hornet in this video). You've never seen anyone move so fast in such a tight space in such a short amount of time!!! Must have been early in the season as none got me.

Came across this video randomly in my feed. Over this summer I noticed giant European hornets were in Mass all over the place here in Northeast Oklahoma and after doing some research there was no claims that there were any in this area but I can attest to the fact that there is and they are in abundance. I even saw the queen one day come up near my home as she was looking for a place to build a nest. When I say looking at the size of that hornet was terrifying that's an understatement. I'm not kidding when I say she was as large as my entire finger. They seem to be attracted to the dark spots that are on oak trees. I drilled out one of these spots thinking it was sap but no sap came out and it was dry. After drilling out the hole they would no longer go back to that spot and they would go to another spot. I also took note that they would come towards the light if you went out after dark with a flashlight. I've watched them attack other insects including chewing the head off of a giant dragonfly down in the woods.

The food chain is amazing. I love how you feed the squirrel the chickens and the skunk. Also, thanks for showing the different wasps' sizes and colors. I know I'll get a good wasp education when watching The Hornet King channel. :)

The skunk was actually a badger. Skunks have high rising tails and different stripes, in case you were curious.
