You could also post this signs and let others knock down the nest.🤣

Nothing like filming your own death.


Yes, you got that one right!! 👍🏼

Just make sure you give your AGN password to a next-of-kin so they can post your video after your timely demise. ❗


And rest assured: I will be there for your funeral — and so will many of your AGN buddies.
Rest in peace.

Well I got that going for me.
 
I have to cut the grass at the range on Friday . Rain over the weekend and I want to shoot in the rain for practice.
I am going to go in like a honey badger . Blast it and get the nest into a trash bag as quick as possible. I have clippers to cut the branches. I have a go pro. I can put it on my chest .

The only other advice I can add is to make sure the GoPro has a fully charged battery and you carry a note instructing the coroner to upload the video content online. That way your efforts can be described as educational.
All joking aside, be very careful and the moment the situation takes a turn for the worst, immediately get as far away as possible. Do not try to push a bad position and hope it improves. Hornets have no sense of humor.
 
I’m going to talk to an exterminator that gets his brakefast at the same place I do. I’ll ask if a honey bee suite will work.

This is what I plan to use.
Motorcycle leather non ventilation and the pants I will double with a layer of rain gear.
It should all be to thick for the stinger to penetrate even if the puncture the outer layers.

I saw a video where a guy used a can of foam sealer plugging the entrance hole then discarded the nest but I think one should do this at night like said above in the cloak of darkness....
That's how I do africanized bees. In the dark and the cold when they're slow and less agro. But hornets aren't always holed up in a tree or a place with a single exit and no way to chew thru to get out. Great stuff on a cool morning that turns into a hot day will cook em.

Duct tape all seems and your neck. It doesn't take a ton to block their weapon. Aerosol contact adhesive is also a hilarious way to handle them if you can hose them and the hole down, or the entirety of a paper nest. If it's in the dirt a pressure washer is the jammy. You can move enough air with the spray to keep them back. A leaf blower helps too. Just plan it out and you will be victorious.
