Boop, I hope you try the mountain dew. My friend said it worked great! Betsy At 01:56 PM 8/26/2006, you wrote: Lee advised: Not many bees or hornets swim underwater. I'm not too sure about these wasps. So far, over a period of four or five nights, we have used at least 2 full cans of wasp and hornet killer, a heavy dusting of Sevin, poking with a metal rod, and some kerosene set beside the hole. Tom heard that the wasps will inhale the kerosene fumes, and will die. I was just hoping they would use the gas for fuel to transport themselves elsewhere. Tom said the hole seemed to be about 10 inches deep, but since the hole is at the base of a bush, he can't really see a definite shape to the hole. Although the numbers have gone down, those damn wasps are still doing a lot of flying around. Tom hasn't seen them flying into the hole like they were, but they are still flying all around it, and probably into it also. We are guessing that there is another nest close by, but he hasn't found it yet. The saga continues. Boop -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Boop, might I add that installing any kind of swimming pool would be helpful for both Tom and you. Not many bees or hornets swim underwater. Install a fence around your pool but when working in the yard a good handyman or handywoman would leave the gate open in an attempt to outrun any chasing buzzing or pesky hornets. this advice is brought to you with the assistance of a chilled bottle of white ziff.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Dear Boop: If you can get to the wholes cleanly, place a clear glass jar over both wholes. The best results are obtained when this is done at night. The bees or yellow-jackets will not normally dig another whole, but will instead, keep trying to fly out through the glass. You will need to leave the jars in place until the nest has starved out, so checking it out each day is not advised.

Here is the problem. We have flower beds right outside our main door. There are some different bushes and flowers planted in the 10 foot bed. Right now, there is also some kind of ground nest of bees/wasps/hornets planted right at the base of one of the bushes. The bed is about 4 feet from the house and is covered in bark mulch, so burning them out is not an option. Tom got nailed once in the hand before we knew the bees were there, and after 4 days, you can almost see the knuckle again. We have sprayed that hole, then he sprayed another hole that he found about 6 feet away from the first hole.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
RJ said: I live on 9 acres in the middle of the lot, where there are only 2 acres that are cleared and the rest is woods. We have the same set up here. Most of the trees all around us are pine trees, with some maple, wild cherry and some others thrown in the mix too. As long as the bees stay out of the yard and house area, we leave them alone. It seems to be a bad year for bees this year. If this continues, we may have to look into getting someone in to spray for them. Thanks again for all your ideas gang.

hi boop just to let you know wasps can fly about 20 miles an hour. i know be cause i had a nest in my truck fender, grrr one got me. so we snuck in through the other door and took the truck for a ride. the wasps followed till we hit 20 grin then we left them behind. when we lost all the wasps we dug the nest out with a board and ran it over a couple 5 times grin. jim At 09:30 PM 8/23/2006, you wrote: Thank you Dale. I'll bee sure to keep this. This isn't the first, or last time we have found nests around here. I learned that finding them with the lawn mower is not a good way to find a ground nest. Bees and wasps can fly faster than a mower, even in 3rd gear. Tom found a large paper wasp nest in the bush he was trimming. The nest was about the size of a basketball when he sliced into it. The wasps were not impressed with the remodeling job. I happened to look out the window just after he did it, and saw the trimmers flying though the air past the window, and Tom high stepping it across the yard.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Tom found the nest the hard way this past Saturday, but since we had been gone for the week before that, we aren't sure how long the nest has been there. Tom watched the wasps flying into the nest yesterday afternoon and said there was one flying in about every two seconds. He is guessing at a few dozen, but there could be more than one nest. I say there are way too damn many of them. Does that help you on the count? I could hear them this morning while standing about 10 feet from where we think the hole is. It was just a constant hum. As I was standing there listening, a hummingbird fly right past my head and scared the crap out of me. Who's jumpy? Will any kind of detergent work, or do they dislike a certain brand more than others? You want a laugh? I just happen to be listening to the book The Secret Life of Bees right now. Go figure! Thanks for the info. Boop How long have the bees been there? Are we talking dozens of bees or hundreds? Whatever measure you take, do it around midnight and not during the day. You indicate that these bees are in the ground. Put detergent into boiling water and pour that on the hole. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Hi RJ, Our house is surrounded by woods, so I know this won't be the last time we have bees. I think I'll send Tom to Wal-mart soon. This stuff won't kill the plants, or stain the vinyl siding, right? We always have a problem with another kind of bug in the fall too. We my try this stuff on the western conifer seed bugs too. I have other names for them, but we won't go there on the list. Thanks. Boop Wal-Mart has a very good concentrate spray that worked for me. It is called bug be gone. Around $6 for about a 8 or 12 ounce bottle. I bought a hose sprayer and set the amount of concentrate per gallon and did the perimeter of the house and the shutters which were loaded with yellow jackets or hornets. It only took one treatment.

Hi there, I have vinyl siding and it hasn't stain it or My wife would have raise hell. plus I live on 9 acres in the middle of the lot, where there are only 2 acres that are cleared and the rest is woods. This year, I had a professional come in early spring and had them treat the house for $135, with a guarantee of 9 month without a insect problem. No bees, hornet spiders, wasps and etc. It was worth the money spend and for the nest in the surrounding trees, I still use Bugs be Gone.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Liquid soap, preferably one that will leave a soapy film. Since the soap contains phosphate, it won't hurt your plants and may actually do them some good. Do this at night because the bees/wasps/hornets are dormant then Still, dump a large boiling pot of soapy water and run like hell. There was an earlier post on this list about making non-toxic insect spray that suggested mixing in jalapeno peppers. I have never done this so I don't know how good of a deterrent the peppers would be.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
A couple of other thoughts. Set a bug zapper buy the entrance and turn it of. It will take a couple of days but it will work. And if you are going to use an insect spray, try Spectracide which is good for all kinds of bugs including bees. -Original Message- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Boop Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2006 11:05 AM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
boop, They're probably ground nesting yellow jackets. or that's what they'd bee in this region. I'd get professional help, they can be very aggressive, and, I believe can cause problems for folks who are allergic to beas etc. If that's what they are, they'll go for food of any kind, so do not, not go outside with any food at all. We vacationed a few years ago at a very nice african theme park near here, Safari west, and the staff told us it took them years of poisoning to get rid of yellow jackets so that folks dared eat outside.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Hey Max, Nope, western conifer seed bugs aren’t the same as love bugs. These are closer to what people call stink bugs. These bugs are big, ugly, fly in an erratic pattern, will drop out of no where, and stink to high heavens when you kill them. They also have an odor when they are alive, but not as bad as right when you kill them. We had them so bad about 6 years ago that I could find hundreds of them on the house in the late afternoon. We never found anything that would kill them. They try to get in a warm place, like an attic, for the winter. They don't sting, but can crawl through very small openings, like a CLOSED window. OK, enough of that. Those damn things will be around here soon enough. Boop Are those the ones that are known in polite circles as love bugs? They have them in Florida.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Thank you Dale. I'll bee sure to keep this. This isn't the first, or last time we have found nests around here. I learned that finding them with the lawn mower is not a good way to find a ground nest. Bees and wasps can fly faster than a mower, even in 3rd gear. Tom found a large paper wasp nest in the bush he was trimming. The nest was about the size of a basketball when he sliced into it. The wasps were not impressed with the remodeling job. I happened to look out the window just after he did it, and saw the trimmers flying though the air past the window, and Tom high stepping it across the yard. Bees and wasps can fly faster than Tom can run too. He got nailed about 8 times that time. Thanks again for the information. Boop -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] What's the buzz?
Hi: I had bees in the attic once and I was told that I needed to wait until after dark when they were all inside before setting off a bug bomb. Is it possible to put something like a brick over one of the holes that you know about, set off a bug bomb in the other one and then cover it with a brick or board? I don't know about ground bees. Betsy At 03:54 AM 8/23/2006, you wrote: Here is the problem. We have flower beds right outside our main door. There are some different bushes and flowers planted in the 10 foot bed. Right now, there is also some kind of ground nest of bees/wasps/hornets planted right at the base of one of the bushes. The bed is about 4 feet from the house and is covered in bark mulch, so burning them out is not an option. Tom got nailed once in the hand before we knew the bees were there, and after 4 days, you can almost see the knuckle again. We have sprayed that hole, then he sprayed another hole that he found about 6 feet away from the first hole. Last night I walked outside about an hour after he sprayed and all I could hear were the swarming bees. Does anyone have another solution to get rid of the bees? We have used two or three cans of spray on them so far, but they are still there. Boop -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
