I’ve found, the best time to kill them is early in the morning.

When I was a kid, my dad was stung by wasps and taken to the hospital. He was told he should be wary to avoid insect stings as the allergic reaction he’d suffered could make him more sensitive to insect stings in the future. A single sting could be fatal.

About ten years ago I answered my phone to a nearly hysterical woman. It was my son’s mother-in-law trying to reach him and her daughter. My daughter-in-law’s dad had been stung by wasps, he died.

A couple of years ago my wife was stung eleven times by yellow jackets. While painful, she didn’t have a severe physical reaction but last weekend she was stung a single time on the hand by a wasp. Her hand swole up and didn’t return to normal for two days.

Yesterday, while mowing, she was attacked by some type of black bees(her words.) They erupted from the ground and chased her on the mower. She was only stung twice on the forehead but awoke this morning, her eye nearly swollen shut.

I got up early this morning while the temperature was barely 60° found the ground nest entry and soaked it with gasoline and wasp spray. I also doused a large wasp nest I found tucked away in the corner of the porch.

While the wasps were an easy kill, I did a poor job on the ground nest. I walked out to check it just now and lots of bees/hornets, I think they’re hornets, were flying around with great energy.

The swallows are active in the field and hopefully will eat a bunch but I’ll have to try again tomorrow morning.

While I’ve no desire to kill hornets these are a real danger.
