      Will it kill mice if you put them in the fish tank? Unfortunately you probably can't show it on TH-cam, but it would be interesting if you could test it on a non-native species you caught live and report back.

Maybe it's like hydrogen peroxide which is quite benign or beneficial at the correct concentration, it largely just oxidizes iron in microbes in the body while doing no damage to surrounding tissue. For example the body literally produces and coats the lungs with hydrogen peroxide which is why we don't get a lung infection every time we take a breath.
      H202 was nebulized/inhaled being used as a treatment for this last pandemic. Not many have ever heard of that. It almost immediately cuts the infection load in the lungs and restored normal breathing so ventilators didn't need to be used on the most serious cases.

    Everything in our house had serious smoke damage after an attic fire in "02, & all of it was "treated" with ozone. It was explained that the ozone molecules would destroy any smoke particles. We were _VERY_ pleasantly surprised when all of our belongings (except, sadly, the 3-piece sectional sofa that was made with foam rubber) came from the "ozone room" smelling as though they had just came down from a clothesline in springtime! No smoke smell, except for the sectional. It was a very impressive demonstration!

    • @Photoloss
      @Photoloss 2 ปีที่แล้ว +597

      It doesn't destroy "particles" very well but it's a very aggressive chemical oxidant meaning it will decompose a lot of things similarly to bleach. Living organisms don't like this effect very much either and since it operates on very simple inorganic chemistry viruses can't cheat it by technically not being alive either. This also makes it a serious hazard to humans though, you should not be in a room with an active ozone generator. Thankfully it is highly unstable so no long-term contamination issues, it just degrades into regular breathable O2 even if not aired out.

    Very interesting, I preferred to just use dish soap and a garden hose after sundown kills them instantly or if the nest is above ground put about a third of a cup of this soap in a gallon of water put it in a garden sprayer and spray that nest. It suffocates them instantly by coding their breathing system which is located on the outside of their body there’s also works on honeybees though I don’t recommend killing honeybees we need them for agriculture and food cycle . Little extra tip add a couple of drops of peppermint oil to the water especially on nests or areas where you cannot remove the nest this will make the nest unpleasant and will not be read occupied afterwards by another swarm

      Your lungs don't "break down" o3, o3 breaks down your lungs. Hemoglobin doesn't process oxygen, it carries it. Your cells process the oxygen, which produces co2 as a byproduct. Ozone is a strong disinfecting agent, that quickly oxidizes most organic, and some inorganic compounds. I would not recommend breathing it. Also, your english is fine.

    After being stung by these very agressive insects, I've got rid of at least a dozen of these nests!
    They are paper like material and shaped like a small football!
    I wait until dark and then take a mineral spirit soaked wet rag and stuff down the hole! Just leave it there! I mow over it with my mower, the rag either gets covered up with grass clippings or rots in place!
    They usually appear in late summer!

    In my experience, the best and cheapest way to kill ground hornets is to wait till the evening, when they're asleep. Then get a screen, some rocks to hold it down, dawn dish soap and a hose. Cover the nest with the mesh/screen and hold it in place with the rocks. Then pour the dish soap in the hole (about 1/2 - 1 cup will do) and fill with water till it just starts to overflow. Leave till morning, and they'll all be dead.

    • @HEROFOREVER
      @HEROFOREVER 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes it works well I’ve had done it a couple times. Very dangerous tho. Gotta make sure the screen has no big holes, and it’s completely held on the ground, or else you’d find yourself in the hospital shortly after, with dozens (if not hundreds) of painful stings in you. 1 sting hurts pretty bad from those guys and will be swore for a little bit after, never mind a whole swarm lol

The infamous yellow eye ring yellow jackets are not fun to deal with. I destroyed 4 yellow jacket nests at work and one at home. I was stung twice by yellow jackets and once by a European paper wasp.

    The best way I've discovered to get rid of yellow jackets. Seven Dust. Just a little puff of it on the entrance to the nest. They walk through it and track it inside, eventually killing the queen and eggs as well. It only takes a day and they're all dead.

    By the way... Yellow Jackets are wasps, not hornets. At least not here in Europe. ;-) We also used an ozone machine (generator) to try to kill termites - it didn't work - but it's effect on spores, bacteria and insects was awesome. Ozone is created by oxygen passing over the highly-electrified plates in the machine, changing O2 to O3, which is highly unstable. Once O3 comes into contact with organic material, it begins to decompose.
    For the Ozone to be produced, it should have a constant feed of fresh air to the metal plate.
