Forund a nice large bees nest, have questions?
Mike_A:
Sounds like you've got it Roger. Only thing I can think of to say is make sure you put ample wasp killer in the bag before you put it over the nest. As soon as you put the bag over them they will be a bit upset, if they aren't already. Be careful. Mike

If you are allergic to stings I'd stay away from it till it gets cold.When the stinging starts with hornet's you are not just gonna get one.A funny sidenote;i saw a bar in Telluride,Colo. clear out on a warm spring day when a nest hanging in the corner,turned out to be hibernating.
Ryano:
I know a guy who collects those nests and uses them for wadding in his black power rifle, not sure why? I think maybe its supost to reduce fouling or something? I prefer to leave them bee...... :D LOL. Ive been stung to many times :P
Pappy:
It is probably a Hornet nest.They will leave it come winter but the birds will tear it up.I have taken them down at night.Slip a heavy trash bag over it and cut it loose.Be careful not to disturb them until it is in the bag.Then in a day or so Open it and spray.reseal and Run.They aren't active at night unless disturbed. ;D :)

I was gonna say what pappy said. Do it at night, spray lots of bug spray, seal tight and wait. Or dont spray and give it to someone you dont like very much. Just dont let them know where it came from. :D
