Yellow Jackets

does any one know how to get rid of yellow jackets. i was just weed eating the yard and them sons of bitches just lite me up . i ran to the screen porch forgot to close the door and they were pouring in. i started to take my shirt off they had it covered and my dog started yelping and running wild opened the house door to go inside & my dog ran in so quick he knocked me down mean while they are biting the shit out of me. got inside and damn if a bunch didnt follow me in. been bite at least 20 times. damn them bites burn like hell

got to be somebody that knows. i cant put gas in the hole its in my front yard under a big oak tree

bengal spray will kill those fuckers! or if you want to have some fun. . . fill up a super soaker with soapy water with a little bleach in it! that oughta let you exact your revenge on those jackets!

Damn man that's fucked up. Wouldn't spraying them with soapy water just piss them off again and set off another attack?

they bit me on my hands, back waist. but the one that hurts the worst is on the back of my head

wet some arm and hammer baking soda and put it on it will form a paste and will help the sting a lot and draw the poison if they stung u at all

nah. . . soap and water is a safe chemical free way to get rid of flying insects such as bees and wasps because the soap clogs there pors and sticks to there wings so they cant fly. . . and the super soaker will give you more distance than any spray can

Not the exact date but a little while before I joined. Didn't have a computer for a long while so I wasn't here for a while. It's funny cause I don't see any of the older members from back then besides FDD.

thanks for the advice fellows

Not sure if you have fixed the problem but if you leave say an empty ice cream bucket outside and put orange soda (any really sugary soda) and dish soap in it, the wasps will fly into it and not be able to get out.

You'll most likely get a ton of wasps and some other insects in there.. but this is only if you weren't to just Raid the nest when they are all inside it at night.
