Looks like you gave them a white primer coat first followed by a finish coat of black. The hornets won't have to worry about rust in the future, either.
@J G:
Except for breathing.
I dunno... should've wiped it down with acetone first.
@@glassgrinder7894 LOL
Should also added glitter just in case if some off them identifies as gay
@@jagadeeshkumar516 🤣🤣🤣
“It seems like you guys like the odd ball type of treatments” lol. Love this guy and his humour lol
I think there are just soo many wasp videos gotta make it stand out with something crazy now days lol
@@wasphunter7131 Yours stand out the most, and are the funniest!!! It shows that you really hate these guys! You must have been stung as a kid, and traumatized lol
@@wasphunter7131You’re cute
@wasphunter7131 yep, you are funny too.
It's amazing what you'll learn works. During the era of big hair in the 80s I realized Aquanet (cheapest hairspray on the market) killed ants and many other household insects.
It kills a lot more things if you add a lighter to the equation.
I am in awe on how many wasps was in that nest! They just kept coming out and coming out, like there was hundreds in there.
Probably thousands
I like this guy. Anything goes with wasps
I found Super 77 Spray Adhesive to work great on a wasp nest I found in a storage building. Was even able to spray them out of the air as it stuck to the wings so they couldn't fly anymore.
No other channel would have a hornet nest and a turbocharger dissected on the same work bench. Good video!
Thanks I’ll eventually have more car vids been secretly working on it for a while lol
@@wasphunter7131 I’ll look forward to seeing it. By the way, my brother is a small engine mechanic, and one time there was a big hornet’s nest up at our parents’ house. So he brought a couple spray cans of carburetor cleaner and used them on the nest. Carburetor cleaner does an excellent job of eliminating hornets.
What’s a carburetor?
It seems like 6 hornet lovers didn't like this video at all . I loved it . Good job !
Some of my vids get hundreds of thumbs down 😆😆😆 it’s crazy how many people hate you for killing these
@@wasphunter7131 Don't pay attention to crazy PETA-maniacs , those idiots cares more about a wasp than the life of the unborn child .. They are dumb !
Oil based spray paints like what you're using usually have xylene or acetone as their solvent, both of which are really nasty chemicals it's not surprising that it kills them lol
You'd be surprised to hear that WD40 also kills them, I hit a couple years ago on the ground and one of them I followed as it took flight going up higher and higher, got about 20 feet up and like a WWII airplane hit by a missile- just suddenly conked out and fell straight down to the ground, funniest thing ever!
Just a squirt bottle with a teaspoon of dish soap, water and peppermint oil kills crickets that get in the house in seconds. I did a video a while back on that. Insects dont handle oils, solvents, soaps or essential oils at all, it messes up their nervous system and more.
Acetone will certainly do the job!
Gasoline is instant much faster
@@HobbyOrganistWD40 is mostly a petroleum based solvent that smells like gasoline, evaporates like gasoline, and burns like gasoline. This is also true of the solvent for the chassis paint in the video. If you sat around in a space filled with these vapors for a minute or two it would kill you for sure, and it'll do the same for any kind of bug.
Not only did the paint fumes give them a great 'buzz', but looks like hatchlings were hastily chewing their way out of the combs, lol.
they're a pest and all but... "lol"? no shit they were. Maybe you should have been one of them. I've seen people hum happy songs squishing wasps inbetween their glove fingers and that was less insenstive than what you wrote.
@@HoodedLunar LOL LOL LOL LOL!! Get a life.
@@HoodedLunar oh i'm sure all the hornets in the comments are greatly offended by that
@@justsomecommentchannel8602 imagine thinking laughing at the paint fumes killing new borns are normal.
@@justsomecommentchannel8602 especially the way he described their urgency to chew out of the comb. sub humans.
Probably super effective at overwhelming and knocking out their pheromones so they’re literally blind and clueless! Good vid brother, subscribed for more!
Love these “experiments”! I’m actually surprised they can still fly. Next video ….hairspray!
YES!!!!! :D :D :D :D
And then a lighter lol
@@awright119021 I thought of that as well, but I didn't want to be tooooooooo cruel lol
Expanding foam...then fire barrel
Hair spray does work. One got in my house, a can of hair spray was close by so hosed him good. Down he went.
This man is doing the good work! Bless you my dude with good health, happiness and money
I got an unction to share this note.Lets Turn to God Theseasonorg explains whole Bible God bless
This man does a shit job he kills protected animals!!!
Doing God's work* 🙏💪
Brake parts cleaner works good as well. So does starting fluid. I believe it's because of the fumes but the cleaner actually dries them out a bit as well.
As a tech, I can confirm. I don't even buy wasp killer, I go get some brake kleen brand brake clean and take any flying pest out instantly.
As yet another auto tech, I can second that.👍
Shoots anything right down!😂
There is something erily satifing about watching hornets getting spray painted, I really need to get a life.
I watched the video too
Petroleum distillates pass through the exoskeletons, and bond directly to the insects nervous system. They lose motor control, and often lose the ability to breathe. Petroleum distillates are in spray paint, most insect killers, and gasoline. The latter is banned as an insecticide by the EPA, but would be an extremely efficient insect killer. Direct contact with the paint would impact motor control and coordination. The fumes would also be very toxic to them.
What would happen if you just sprayed the entrance and a hole up top the way you did with the dust but with Flex Seal? That way it stays more contained and you don't get chemicals everywhere either. Would they all just get gunked up at the entrance?
I can give it a try this spring and we will find out
They should run a commercial with the happy Flex Seal guy patching up a live hornet nest. EPIC!!
Phil Swift here, and today we are going to patch up this leaking Bald Face Hornet's nest with Flex Seal!
@@wasphunter7131 i actually did that a few years back working maintenance (had to handle hornets but had 0 gear and didn't wanna get close). Didn't hit the nest, but dropped a decent number of them as they went about their business.
It greatly weighs them down, and assuming you have 2+ cans firing at a nest, i'd guess that it covers them so thoroughly that they can't even see or escape. It's thick enough, with enough adhesive power that it may well seal them in _faster_ via the early leavers.
That said, yes, it easily the most satisfying way that i have ever killed wasps, and a pro doing it to a nest would easily be an amazing video.
Or spray in paint or brake cleaner and then use expanding foam insulation and fill the entrance up haha
Thanks for showing the public what items from their garage might do against unruly infestations.
I've learned a lot from you Mike. Bees and wasp breathe through their skin so it makes sense that covering them with paint would suffocate them. I've done a few Eradications, but I can't wait to get to your level.
I would love to come out and do a video with you some time, your honey bee knowledge fascinates me to be honest. I really enjoyed the mantis vids too they are soo cool.
You said nothing but a word. I'm going to set something up...I may see what I can do to set it up at the Hilton Hotel. I'm working on turning their courtyard into a pollinator garden for weddings
That would be awesome I deff see some colabs in our future I should have reached out sooner next season will be epic
Yup, it suffocates them.
Not through their skin, rather spiracles.
This dude is funny. He reminds me of coworker. We all loved him.
As a pro painter in the Pacific northwest I have never delt with nests like I have seen on your channel. Only twice have I had to call in a pro. Once was a bee hive in a building. Other was ground yellow jackets.
I have used the black spray paint on nests. Most of the time I use a pressure washer. Once in a while I miss a nest.
It is amazing how well an airless sprayer can take them down. 😂😂😂
Only been stung once on a job. Sprayed a wasp and it fell on a tarp. When I pick up the tarp is when I got stung
Forgot to mention. My saying was if I can catch it in I can paint it. 😂😂😂
Surprisingly Thee Best video I've watched on YT tonight.
I enjoyed this and subbed. Pretty good show but just adding my experience. After getting attacked mowing at home I experimented to get rid of a ground nest. I used a 10 ft long pvc with a few inches of rather curved pex stuffed in the end, poured in a good fill of Rose Dust into the pex and extended it to the hole, blasted into the pvc with canned air and the nest was dead the next day. Rose Dust was all I had and it is very inexpensive. I took that method to my work at a 16 building apartment facility and we never had make an emergency call to Terminex again. Kids pointed out bald face balls and it worked very well on them too. You observed when the ball that was cut open there on the bench it was fully infused. Waiting alone would have done the dead. We had a beekeeper suit but never needed it for outside work.
Oh man that was so cool. That really got them running for the exit 🤣
Imagine some giant monster doing that to humans trying to escape a football stadium.
After being stung many times in the past this was one of the most satisfying videos ever!!! Thank you!!! P.S. I jumped to the side of my desk when the wasps flew at you in the video!! I almost fell down.
Great video! However, it's important to be sure to check the CC&Rs before undertaking any hornet painting project!
The foragers coming back must have been like "cool, someone is painting our house for us!"
Try aerosol hairspray! Their wings get lacquered stiff. Always keep a can on hand during summer
I've done this with a beginner's paper wasp nest last year! It was still just the queen building it and had like 5 combs at the time.
That was awesome. I’ve never tried spray paint but brake cleaner works really well.
Yeah I’ve use brake cleaner and carb cleaner a few times great stuff
@@wasphunter7131 brake cleaner is the 8th wonder! Hey I do have a question, if I were to stumble upon a ground wasp nest. Would filling it with soapy water be effective?? Dude, I love you’re channel, keep it up!!
@@jimmy_olds try electrical contact cleaner. heavy gasses sink into the hole. i use it on fire ants and wasps. kills fast too.
@@jimmy_oldsHere's some info I've gathered from videos about yellow jackets (other wasps may be different):
> Boiling water will kill yellow jackets.
> If using water/juice in a trap, adding a squirt of dish soap will break surface tension, so when the buggers fall into it, they will sink and die.
> One guy uses Dawn Clear de-greaser dish soap because:
>> It is environmentally friendly (often used by nature conservationists).
>> Using a "de-greaser" dish soap will dissolve the wax covering on the abdomen of the insects (he explains), and they will die because they can't' breathe.
>> He uses a water/Dawn mixture and a sprayer. Too close for me--those suckers are mean!
NOTE: I don't know if other dish soap brands will work as well.
Whatever you do, make sure you wear protective clothing to cover your ENTIRE body and head.
Maximum expanding spray foam insulation is better for that, LOL!
Love it! Improvise, adapt, overcome!
Looks like some spontaneous combustion! Spray paint, paper, hot day? Boom
Great video man and nice touch with the green apple on the bench lol.
Always loved your videos.
The spray paint worked great. Probably blinded them, too🤣
🐝 👁 🎨 🤣
Now I don’t have to try it myself. I thoroughly enjoyed every second of the spray can. Reminded me of my evil childhood
I am sure those fumes are getting to them plus the paint drying on their breathing tubes probably blocking them and making them too heavy to fly
I wonder if you could use something like Flexseal to trap them inside, remove the nest and destroy it and them all at once (burn barrel?).
My next vid will be with duct tape and it worked really well
@@wasphunter7131 I don't doubt it.
That might work good. The way this guy is doing it isn't a bad idea either
Had a massive wasp nest in my shed where I keep my lawnmower. Sprayed them with Flex Seal and they are still stuck on the nest. That was 2 years ago. I left it hanging as a trophy. Lol.
👀👀👀 lol 😆
Another awesome video, keep em coming !
I have quite a bit of experience with Hornets, and it is best to leave them alone, unless they are near your home, or any area occupied. They are not aggressive like Yellow Jackets. They won't ruin your picnic, or chase you around. But they will certainly protect their nest. On a different note, last year I was mowing a yard, and weed whacked all over a Yellow Jacket nest, and they were flying all over the place, but they did not sting me, WIERD... I have never been that lucky before.
Thx for the excellent video with your good looks adding spice to it.
Surprisingly enjoyable to watch.
Love the odd ball treatments vid ..bring on some more please
FYI WD40 is also very effective. I use a spray bottle & send up a little cloud. the ones flying thru it drop. I then step on them to make sure.
Keep up the great videos
Amazing how many of those were in there. My dad always said bald/white faced hornets not only sting but burn if they get ya. Good job considering what you had.
Wow, you do great work on those nests. I mentioned in your other video that I had to kill a nest or hornets that built a nest behind a retaining wall. I didn't have the protective suit or experience in this like you. I planned it and attached them at 10 PM when they were sleeping. That was scary, but with planning, I was lucky it worked well. I was contemplating using a torch on them, but the great stuff was a much better weapon. it works very quick and is easy to handle. That was the last one I've had to deal with. The paint did a great job for you. Besides coating them, the fumes assisted in taking them out.
I'll be looking for additional videos from you.
Your videos are AWESOME!!!!.😆
Lovin it when he goes ARRGGHHH. And he did it a lot this time!!
😆😆
Yesss, highlight of my day!! 👍
haven't laughed this hard all week - thanks LOL Merry Christmas
Fireworks could be an interesting site lol aka m60 m80 m100 cherry bombs. You get the hint maybe attach to installation rod ignite count down fuse and insert post hast in to girth of nest and step back and watch Hornets fly at warp speed
That was an awesome video. Thank you!
Terrifying! I hate wasps so much and you’re just right up in a huge nest of em! 😳
Wd 40 and pb Blaster work on wasps and nests. The oil coats thw wings so they cant fly and they asphyxiate from the fumes.
I’m a mechanic too so I should deff try it out I always have a can of pb in my tool box
Good job young man! That’s a great idea!
Most exterminators spray these nests and go home. You don't! You like to mess them up and have a bit of fun with them. It's the sort of thing l would do too, so l really enjoy watching your videos, they make me laugh. But also, you get close to the action, which is more than most youtubers do! Thanks for the entertainment!
WORKERS:"Not to worry, mum. He's just here to paint the house!"
QUEEN:"Paint the..? That's no housepainter---AFTER HIM!!!!"
YEllo Jackets now Al Jolsen Jackets... Well done...
Spray paint. Nice touch. Whenever I see a bug that I don’t like on my job site, I grab a spray can of whatever is on hand.
I believe that the paint was more effective than the foam. Much less activity from the hornets with the paint.
Now that’s a man that improvises
*awesome camera view too*
Good trick using spray paint. This is NO WAY I would have done this during the day!. That was very dangerous. I would have hit that nest just before dark!
Spray paint is great. Brake Kleen is better. Carb and Choke cleaner is amazing. Especially if you want to light the nest on fire. Just some of my observations.
Keep up the good work. Always fun to watch.
New shiny black “Model T’s”!
Dude. You're great. Balls of steel
How many hornets would u say 'lost their lives' in this experiment? Haha
I would say 100 or so for sure 😆😆
That’s the most satisfying thing I’ve ever seen
I have to hand it to ya. That black paint definitely did the job. Some year's back l took orange paint to some bumblebees that were in
A wall of the garage. Stay Safe ✌️ oh l subscribed to ya.
Yeah it was a unexpected random use and it honestly worked very well
Awesome work love it
Perhaps your most epic kill ever! Love it!!!! More creativity is perfect!!!! Well done.
I imagine some boomer's prized Corvette out in his driveway with dazed balls of black chasis paint crawling around on the hood.
Oh man that would suck for them lol
The chassis on this nest now has a pretty sweet coating!
😆😆
brilliant love the paint job on the nest lol
Your camera sound is really great - I was swatting with my hand a few times watching this. Between the smoke & the spray paint it was double trouble for them ! In a year how many Hornets nests do you typically take out ?
Honesty since Covid has ended my calls have gone way down I think it’s because not as many people are home to see them now. Last summer I would say I did around 50 removals
Love the vids man
You should use that paint again for another nest bro
I was expecting you to yell out Banzai and grab the thing like a maniac!
I personally recommend rubberized undercoating. Even if they try to fly away they just drop to the ground. Seals the rest inside. Job done.
Nice paint job!
😆😆😆
Dude, you are krazy! And very entertaining lol 🐝🐝🐝🐝
Try spray adhesive, or give it a good shot of acetone (fingernail polish remover).
Or ether, or hairspray.
A little shot of oven cleaner might do it, too.
Uh seems to me a pair of pruners and or the long handled loppers would be very beneficial to keep with you for getting nests out of trees/shrubs.
I KNEW my hornet nests were the wrong color! Thanks for the tip!
That was awesome!!
Snow hornets? I have not seen such ones yet 😁
And besides, a great job of course! 😉
Any stings through your suit when it comes in BFHs? Love your vids 👍 destroying this annoying bugs.
Have you tried spraying Great Stuff spray foam in one of the nests? That might be interesting as it expands.
We need more 'wasp nest removal' content! :)
Anything that ruins the day of a wasp makes my day better!
LOL the hornets were basically huffing paint getting high in the hive 😂 looks like an HX-35 or 40 on your work bench 😎
You need a pair of long handle loppers to cut those small limbs. Never thought about using spray paint, now you have a new tool in your hornet fighting arsenal.
I noticed as soon as you painted them black they started looking for the white queen. 😁
"What spray paint does to bald faced hornets.."
As long as it fucks em up I don't care how dumb that sounds lol.
liking these different things too kill wasp vids very interesting for some reason lol.
When I was 3 or 4 years old, one morning I discovered a black wasp nest in an exterior wall of our house. I found a can of silver spray paint and sprayed the crap out of those wasps and the hole they were crawling in and out of. Needless to say, my parents weren't amused when I showed them what I did.
Thank you. 👍
Brake cleaner kills on contact also. Awesome stuff for huge spiders also.
Thank you so much for the videos Brother again such an inspiration. Are you able to show us a removal with a flamethrower
As they get blackened up ,they will saying loudly " Look at My Suit " !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
Ever use spray foam the expandable stuff?
