Great video as always HK. I wondered if you’ve ever seen the Japanese Giant Hornet? Not necessarily in the States of course. They look absolutely massive.

[@hotmilo]

The tarantula hawk thing is just as massive. HK I do not know how you can do it. I'm scared of most flying insects.

[@KPbICMAH]

why are they so calm when you remove them?

[@rinlen1660]

Have you ever thought of getting a wider vac head, wouldnt that be more helpful?

[@amelliaarredondo7267]

I actually got stung by one of those when I was little I did nothing to it I guess there was a wasp nest or paper wasps I walked by it I heard it so I tried getting away and that’s when it stung me 😢😢😢😢😢😢❤ but love the video was great and was painful 😓

I have moderate trypophobia (phobia of clusters of small holes) and an EXTREME phobia of maggots so I’ve been slowly watching a few of these everyday as kind of exposure therapy as i love the rest of the removal process, especially the hoovering, and mixing that with stuff that im really scared of is really helping me face my fear!! thank you so much for helping!!

I have slight trypophobia as well! I get really uneasy looking at clusters of holes, lol. And my fear of wasps is like, I see one of the buggers, even if it’s dead and I’ll stay in the next block over hiding in a bunker until it comes alive and kills me or something :)

Thank you for explaining about why you don't remove honeybees, and about your squirrely squirrels. I had no idea emus and rheas guarded their territory like that. It's good having them deter hawks. A great video for a cool rany Sunday in the Poconos

[@italianviking80]

I grew up on a dairy farm and have had my share of encounters with paper wasps. At least, I think they were paper wasps. They would build their nests in haystacks and inside farm equipment. They weren't very aggressive, but they were very intimidating when flying around.

Great video! I appreciate you answering the bumblebee question, I've often wondered about this. Though i realize youre the HORNET king, I always figured at some point you've been asked about removing them or at least encountered them.

[@HornetKingOfficial]

People call me about all bugs and pest control. My listings and advertisements specify wasps, but any bee calls I get get referred to my apiarist.

[@StonerJames]

When I first saw these hornets and heard their low, bassy buzzing, I thought they were those giant Asian hornets due to their size. But these ones are the second biggest I've seen.

[@kmb957]

I worked as an auto detailer for a toyota dealership in PA. They did a dealer trade for a Tacoma from New Holland. The truck arrived with a honey bee nest in the grill. After the nest was removed, the entire area inside the grill was covered in honey. That really sucked to clean.

[@michaelmccartin2054]

I have learned so much about wasps since I started watching your show and it is good to understand them better. I had a yellow jacket nest in my yard this past summer but they were not aggressive so I didn't bother them.

Thanks for all the info. I think it's great that the emus and rhea protect their area. It's not surprising really. Thanks for showing a bumblebee nest. That was so interesting as I have never seen one. We have tons of bumblebees around here in western Washington state. They are black and white instead of black and yellow. I enjoy the info content almost as much as the removals and of course always enjoy watching the birdies eat. And from now on I will just feel lucky to see any squirrel footage if you happen to have a rescue.

That was an interesting bit about the honeybees. Some exterminators are saying that the 'Africanized' bees are making their way to all 48 lower states...and that they are adapting to cold weather much more than predicted. As always, stay safe!

[@ashleyvega6245]

I live in Vegas and today I saw a couple of bees on a rosemary bush, it’s not warm at all right now and it shocked the heck out of me to see bees working in the winter and here’s the real kicker IT WAS DARK OUT, I thought bees stopped working when the sun sets?

[@empireoflizards]

@@ashleyvega6245 Depends on whether they were actually still collecting pollen or were 'stranded' for the night. They need daylight to navigate but if it gets dark before they get back, they might stay on the bush for the night, I guess.

Growing up my mom and dad rescued a baby squirrel and we did the same thing. We raised them to health, made them a home outside and eventually they left. But they dont make good pets. Their fur is real coarse and their nails hurt bad when they crawl on you. Still it was cool to have the experience.

My bf still hasn’t played them yet but he wants to when he gets the time plus link to the past and wind waker. Great video! I’m actually terrified of basically all bugs but especially flying bugs mainly because I’m afraid it’s a wasp or something. I flinch every time and do my best to just walk away but my natural reaction is to swat. It’s a fight instinct. But I’m glad I started watching your channel. I’ve learned a lot about wasps. I was also terrified of spiders until I started watching Tarantula Kat. Because of her, I can actually look at spiders now and not have anxiety. Before I’d have to build myself up to be able to look at them. Like through my fingers 🫣 lol. Completely ridiculous 😂. That being said, I’m very aware that a big part of fear is a lack of understanding, so I don’t shy away from educating myself on things I’m afraid of. I may never be totally ok with bugs or spiders, and that’s ok, but at least I’m taking measures to try reduce my anxiety about them. Now if only I could get over my fear of heights 🤔 I’ve tried many times, I think it’s pretty solidified 😅🤦🏽‍♀️
