Yellow Jackets INFESTATION in ALABAMA! | Wasp Nest Removal |

I was called 800 miles from home to remove Yellow Jackets out of a client's wall for a collaboration with 628DirtRooster Bees and Yappy Beeman! We pulled some Eastern Yellow Jackets (Vespula Meculifrons) from out of a wall and vacuumed up all the wasps AND found the queen!

Man What a great edit and that was an awesome week! Love the drone footage coming up the creek to the falls. Also just an FYI, I was up all night because I was watching you sleep. You looked so peaceful. ;)

[@HornetKingOfficial]

Hahahaha creeper! 😆😅🤣

[@nashguy207]

Be does do an awesome job editing his videos!

[@glamdolly30]

I subscribe to both your excellent channels! Good to see KZbin stars collab-ing together and having a laugh! The amazing Laurel and Hardy car, and the drone footage that topped and tailed the wasp job were fantastic. Great work guys! Now DirtRooster - your challenge is to get Hornet King into bee-keeping and honey farming, I think he'd be a natural!

[@rollymaster16]

@@HornetKingOfficial At least you'll know never to sleep in his state again

[@TC1TheOrginal]

Where wasp extermination is a way of life.

[@jrock2460]

This guy single handedly puts out video content that surpasses the quality that TV production teams put out with 50 different overpaid staff members. Incredible.

[@HornetKingOfficial]

Thank you very much for the compliment!

[@racingboss166]

Dude stop undersaling it

[@ReeseRodrigue]

Couldn't agree more. Id watch this over a TV show anyday no doudt. The love and dedication put into is what makes it so much better. Not what gets the biggest $

[@cheerbearsue]

Reminds me of how the American Pickers are edited a little at the beginning…probably because of the scene with him driving the old car.

[@FrederickDunn]

Hello Hornet King! This entire video was worth the view just to see you roll out in that Ford! I got a flashback to being a child and riding with my great grandfather to the bread store. I could watch the road pass under us through the rusted-out floorboard :) That was a great collaboration! Thank you! So much fun to see you all together on a project.

[@HornetKingOfficial]

Thank you so much, Frederick! I grew up in he wrong era, and I love the memories this car has given me, and all the ones it brings back for others!

[@AC3handle]

Have to wonder if you need to use an additive because of lack of leaded gas nowadays. Any idea what MPG those things get?

[@Kluleess]

Agreed. That car is beyond words!

[@glamdolly30]

Wow, the sublime Fred, another of my favourite KZbinrs, drops by to say hello! Next we need to see a BEE RESCUE collab between all of you KZbin stars - that would really be something! I think Hornet King is a natural beekeeper and honey farmer. But don't travel there together in the Ford guys, we could have a 'Laurel and Hardy' type, vehicle collapse. You boys would certainly give that antique suspension a good work out! Love and respect from some of your many UK fans! XXX

[@BaneRain]

Subscribe to Fred. You won't regret it

[@kylefriant3368]

You are the master brother, we all know this!! You are the reason I bought a bee suite and removed an underground hornets nest myself out back my house next to the bilco doors leading to the basement. And it went perfectly thanks to the knowledge and material out there for us all the learn this stuff. Hornet king 🤴

[@HornetKingOfficial]

That is awesome!

[@emilynixon8924]

That car made me start crying! My dad LOVED old cars like that and he just passed away on the 10th. God i wish i could have showed him this

[@Warrior1_]

Sorry for your loss

[@Kluleess]

EXCELLENT!!!!! I really jumped when the black tape was pulled off and all those jackets came pouring out. The artistic photography was amazing! TY

[@Dave-ty2qp]

I'm glad to see you went to Nocolula Falls. It was my play ground in the 50's and 60's. Now its just a tourist trap. Black Creek is beauiful both up and downstream. I left there in 1966, but miss the beautiful countryside in that part of the country.

[@janerawlinson4617]

That was a busy nest superb scenery good banter fun video thanks.

[@slouzbrystrove]

Here’s hoping you can come down again someday. North Alabama is full of beautiful places that are largely unknown to the general population. Your footage of Noccalula Falls was breathtaking!

[@MendTheWorld]

I experienced the most remarkable visual effect at Noccalula Falls, while on a geology field trip. If you stare fixedly at the waterfall for a minute or so, without moving your eyes, and then look away, everything in the vertical band of vision where the water WAS moving down would appear to be moving UP, in the opposite direction as the waterfall. I’ve never experienced that in any other setting. It was really cool.

[@sorrenblitz805]

Generally a better idea that they stay largely unknown. Unless you want those places to become garbage dump tourist spots

[@urielventris4917]

!I loved it when I heard "...the difference...A Southern yellowjacket would say "Well bless your heart"...", I just about cracked a rib laughing.

[@topperhatschire]

Anyone who ever lived in the south knows how devastating that phrase is

[@LauraAnn309]

As someone who stepped on two ground nests as a child and is still afraid of wasps, I love your channel. So educational and entertaining!

[@betsystevenson921]

Really enjoyed this one King! The old car & seeing the Bee Boys on KZbin🥰

Wow just take a min to appreciate the Ford. Great collab and video. Thanks for posting. Would like to see more. * they sting you and say Bless your heart. Haha

You rock Hornet King! Just a few guys loving life cracking jokes and helping people. Nothing more wholesome than that! Wish we had more people like you. 🤘🏼

[@LedaSBotelho]

Loved this video. The commentary. The folks. The views. Would it be selfish of me to wish for another video? Southern folks are wonderful to be around. Nice car by the way. Can't believe how things have changed.

This was a fantastic video. Love the Ford un the beginning and the effects you did. DirtRooster seems to be a good guy in his videos I have watched several over the years. I would hate to know how long of a trip that would of been in the old Ford. lol That was a good size nest in that wall. I used to travel Alabama for close to 30 years not sure where the creek and falls are but your drone footage of them was beautiful of them. Have a great week!!

[@89ludeawakening1]

That was some nice shots of Noccalula Falls. I like about five minutes from there. You should see it at night during Christmas, it's beautiful!

[@angelwingstn3392]

[@dantreadwell7421]

Saw this on 628's page a bit ago, and have been looking forward to yours. Looks like yall had a blast of a time there. "BLESS YOUR HEART!!" Oh man I love it. My dad grew up in South Mississippi, 35 miles from the coast. So I grew up with some of this, especially when we went to visit.

[@jjggbbjunk]

Have you ever considered getting a 3D printer to make some custom attachments for your vacuum? Seeing all those critters buzzing around made me think you could improve your capture with the right attachment.

[@HornetKingOfficial]

Nah. I dont need any attachments.

[@bobbyjenkinsjr.397]

@@HornetKingOfficial Now THAT’S the reply of a pro. lol I knew a mechanic that had been in business forever who always said that he didn’t need specialty tools. He didn’t, either. How he did some of the things that he did with regular tools was a testament to his experience.

[@HornetKingOfficial]

@@bobbyjenkinsjr.397 No reason to over complicate things. I have no use for extra attachments. If a tool doesn't improve my production or process, there's no sense in using it.

[@1krani]

What's funny is that I've had plenty of interactions with yellow jackets but never been stung, even when I took a swing at them. Meanwhile, I once had a wasp fly over and sting me for literally no reason. I was in a campsite surrounded by people, yet it stung me before continuing on the way it was going.

[@sorrenblitz805]

yellow jackets are wasps bud all wasps are wasps but only some wasps are hornets.

[@1krani]

@@sorrenblitz805 Then maybe it wasn't yellow jackets I was shooing.

Holy hell! That Model A Roadster is gorgeous! You must tell us about it. How did you come by it? Do you do your own wrenching? Did you really drive it all the way down to AL? On what roads? Surely it can’t keep pace on the interstate, so two-lanes all the way?!

[@HornetKingOfficial]

Thanks James! It is my dream car! I bought it in 2019 and got it running. I do all my own work on my vehicles, and ESPECIALLY this one. I didnt actually drive it down, just movie magic.

Pretty cool video . Sweet old car . I actual was actually watching Yappy and Dirt Rooster’s videos before I happened upon yours as they are friends with another JP The Beeman who is so awesome . Now for your actual video not your typical video at all , however was still cool to see you give those wasp their official eviction notice . Too bad though we could not see the chickens eating the larva . As I also watch Dirt Rooster and Yappy I’ll have to keep my eyes open for the video of you working with honey bees . Thank you for sharing the video .
