Kill them or let them take over. Choice is yours.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72755443


I agree. Kill them. Buy one of those yellow jacket traps and put a piece of salmon skin in it. The yellow jackets will go crazy. I really don't think they serve any useful purpose so I kill them. Plus they attacked my kids when they were little raking the yard and stung them both dozens of times. I declared war on them then and there.

Take a new bag & add a cotton ball soaked with fingernail polish remover.

Put the new bag half way over the old bag & then quick slice the old bag open & put the new bag on.

The fumes should kill them all within an hour or 2.

If they were 100 times larger, they would be killing you without hesitation or thought.

Why do you put so much thought into killing these pests that would kill you?

Re: Help with Yellow Jackets
So I'm a country girl, have a truck but it is usually idle for a few months, I really only use it in winter to drive and maybe 2-4 times in the summer so my mom can take her sea doo's to the lake.

Since the truck has been just sitting there, I now have a yellow jacket nest in the driver side mirror.

I feel like the biggest piece of shit for this, but I put a bag over the mirror with a rubber band. its not like they are going to happily oblige to me removing their nest.

I could have done it at night, when they were all sleeping- but I did it in the day so that the ones that were out could avoid the disaster and find a new home.

How long should I wait before removing the bag?

And is there a safe place I can put the hive for any larva? I'm not opposed to bees/yellow jackets, but I can't even go in my truck anymore. I feel like an asshole already for killing them, but I don't really have any other option.

do you mean a WASP? it's called a WASP!! american cuck
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19680052


Did I say wasp? No. You can't tell the difference between a wasp, yellow jacket, or hornet? They all look different because they are different.

American cuck? What the fuck kind of shillary is this.
 Quoting: Preconceived_Notion


You are both kinda right ya know.

Yellow Jackets are actually a type of Wasp.

They may be confused with other wasps, such as hornets and paper wasps.

And they die much quicker with spray than by just being dissolved OP.

There is really no reason not to use spray on them.

To really do the job good and right you should kill them with fire though.

Huh, I didn't know they made yellow jacket traps. But then again I never ran into this problem before. I could go to Home Depot tomorrow and see what they have. I just baked fresh trout today, so thanks for the info, I saved the skin.

I just hate killing things, I don't even kill house flies, I just capture them and let them free. But those are houseflies, they don't bite or sting.

Thanks for the info.

Re: Help with Yellow Jackets
Do what beekeepers do---use smoke which sedates them so they won't sting you. Call your county agricultural agent and see if they can put you in touch with a beekeeper. Or find one online and ask for advice.

This could be tricky, you don't want to set the plastic bag on fire and damage your car. Night is easiest for removal.

Well I already have a bag over the mirror. They have not cut through it, which surprised me since they have strong jaws.

There are 5 or so of them huddled together sleeping since it is night time. I hope they give up and find a new home.

Put a few drops of peppermint oil in your water spray bottle and spray them once--they will leave that nest and not come back. then you can remove it easily with no worries.
I live in the woods so i have this problem all the time.

This I find interesting. You know your eyes are black holes (pupils), they collide when you focus on the 6th energy center (third eye chakra).

You have to have a lot of discipline to astral travel. I did this once, and the energy projected was rediculos.

After that I learned to progect energy out of the bodies energy centers.

Anyway, nice to meet a fellow traveler. You know "what's up".

Try the peppermint oil--it works and you won't gas yourself--plus they don't come back, even if you can't get to the nest.

Not sure what you are trying to say with your picture comment.
