That's nothing mate. I woke up today to find a huge hornet nest in one of the bedrooms in the barn! Thank god no one was staying in there. I tried to illimate them with toilet air freshened but that just pissed them off and I only just manged to run out the room and slam the door shut. After a few hours they settled down and I went back in there with a slab of 6" by 2". Gave the nest a good bash and splattered most of them. There is still about 10 left so tomorrow I'm breaking out the wd40 + lighter combo to clean up the survivers. I was very scared earlyer though. 3 bites in the wrong place and your dead......

LOL
reminds me of something my dad did years ago, he had found a wasps nest in the rockery by the back door in the garden, so he thought one night "while there asleep" to break out the hedge trimmer to get rid of the plants surrounding the nest so he could deal with it...
so dresses up in his motorcycle leathers, gloves and crash helmet and goes out side, 10 seconds later you see him running toward the back door followed by 1000's of very angry wasps! that proceeded to cover all the windows of the back of the house and try and find the way in
next day rang the council £70 later and all gone... some white powder they spray into the nest

Dang, im gona go find a wasps nest, i want some of that.....
my new neighbors pointed one out to me in the eave of my house, on the side i dont go on much....
it was the size of a basketball. huge.
i took a 5 gal propane bottle and a torch, and this is summer time mind you.... get up on the ladder in the evening, and proceed to lay waste to the thing. there were soooo many hornets out. they were everywhere. they were dive bombing me and trying to get me. my wife was laughing at me for a long time.... i almost fell off the ladder a number of times. and i was shorts and tanktop at the time. i felt like King Kong on the Empire State Building!
i was at it for over an hour.... i went out the next morning, and there were hornets littered all over the lawn. still crawling around with no wings. thousands of the little guys.... and i made it out with no stings or bites. and these hornets are meat eaters, too....
