Well durh.
If you make your nest out of paper, and Al finds it, an chucks Metho on it and lights it.

Insert evil laugh here.

The nest was the size of a small soccer ball....

Poor little buggers, what did they ever do to you.
They are actually harmless and do not hurt anyone.
I am the only exception who gets an ambulance ride to hospital if one happens to sting me, one sting blows up the size of a bloody football within two minutes, pulse goes silly and the pain is incredible.
I wish there was a way to get rid of the bastards.
Haven't seen any out my way for three years, this is definitely Gods own country.

Semi-hijack.

I used to have a Jims Mowing, and did some contract work for a local re agent.

I did this cleanup at a rental once, overgrown lawns & garden, pile of rubbish in corner of back yard, blah blah.

Went to move something in the pile of rubbish, which was in corner of paling fence & next doors brick garage wall. Couple of bees buzz up.

Gave it a big kick & jumped back. Bloody lot of bees buzz up. Hmmmmmmm. Wot now? :confused:

Grab the jerry can of petrol, gave it a couple of big sloshes, chucked a match.....WWWWWWOOOOOOMMMMMPHHHHHHHHHH. :eek:

Flames about 8-9ft high, toasting them bees nicely. Hmmmmm, up against the timber fence, better think about putting it out reasonably NOW. Grab the sprayer, fill with water & chuck on, repeat several times.

Result: One slightly charred fence, big sooty stain up neighbours brick wall.

Scooped up rubbish (once cooled down) & chucked over fence into trailer. Middle of rubbish is a full on (ex- hive, looked like a couple of books stacked together.

As I'm working, I hear the fella next door yammering away in Paki or something to his missus: "Yammer, yammer, biddi, boddi, WHOOOMPH, biddy, boddy, yammer....."

I cracked up laughing, it was a fitting post script.

Have had plenty of mileage out of the story, & have a chuckle each time I pass the place.

I had an Airedale who died because she loved to catch them - baskets.:mad::mad:

WD40 sprayed on nest then ignited with the spray worked a treat and I didn't need to shave for a week

Yep, that's the traditional method. We used to regularly get paper wasps in instrument shelters. Trick is to ease the door open & if they're there, light the lighter and spray past it at the nest.

Usual disclaimers...this is not safe...if you do it you are likely to cause yourself serious injury or death, don't even think of trying it etc etc etc.

But fun all the same, I think you are just a frustrated Mythbusters wannabe
