I mentioned my problem to my neighbor, Jim, and he offered to come to my rescue. He came over with another guy last night and went after the hornets. I knocked the nest down today. They are dead.

I bet those neighbors had a good time fighting the hornets 😀 Boys (I know they’re men) love having an excuse to blow things up and/or kill them! :wave: You do have great neighbors Suzanne but that comes from being a great neighbor yourself. :wave:

Good for you, it was nice of your neighbors to help. Yhe only good hornet is a dead hornet, may sure you watch that spot next year, it is a good place for a nest—for the hornets, but certainly not you.

You better make sure that you have plenty of food and supplies on hand plus a big box of aluminum foil. That’s 2 hornet’s nests this year: one low and one high. Wears going to have a doozy of a bipolar winter!

That was high up! Not sure the spray would have reached it without the ladder. You are blessed with good neighbors.
Cousin Sheryl, I get the extra food but why the aluminum foil?

I hate hornets. I’d much rather have wasps. They find their way inside the house once in a while and as long as they leave me alone and hang out near the window, I leave them alone. But 30 wasps in my bedroom would be too, too much. Gotta love that long stream spray and nice people to help you out with it.

Glenda – just type “aluminum foil” into the search box to the right here on CITR. You will discover Suzanne’s obsession with aluminum foil. 😆 Funny read!

Glenda, the post name is “Snowed Under, Send Aluminum Foil.” If anyone wants to know what to get Suzanne for Christmas, just give her the magic, silvery stuff ** FOIL ** hehehehe
