How to remove hornets nest

Hornets are the wasps angrier, bigger and more dangerous and aggressive cousins. They are often mistaken for wasps. It is important to know that hornets will attack anyone in the area they perceive as their territory, you do not have to be acting threateningly for a hornet to want to sting you. You could have simply knocked it as you passed by and now angered it beyond imagination. So make sure if you have a hornet’s nest that you take of it quickly, either on your own or with the help of seasoned professionals. Hornets’ nests usually hang like a planter from a tree branch or the overhanging roof over your deck. They look like a large ball of brown paper that has aged for a few hundred years but they are actually intricate nests filled with pathways and rooms that the hornets use to store eggs, food and whatever else they need.

Removing a hornets nest is no easy task, you will need hornet freeze and insecticide and you will want to do it at night when they sleep, a common factor between them and wasps. You will want to be well covered, possibly even wearing a bee suit to protect you from their stings. Unload two cants of insecticide into the opening of the hole and then fill the hole with two cans of hornet freeze, the insecticide kills them and the hornet freeze stops them from leaving the nest. A deadly combination that, when done right, can instantly kill an entire hornets nest in a matter of minutes. That being said it is important not to remove it for at least one month in case some hornets are still alive inside. If the nest breaks open they will be released and will likely attack you and your family.
