This is outstanding....better than tv! We have a yellow jacket issue in our front yard....they are nesting in our mulch and/or under some bushes. I bought the spray at Home Depot, didn't faze them, I think they just got high and actually enjoyed it. So, I called in a "pro"....he showed up a bit ago and the YJs are just now coming out. I chat with him for a while, he tells me he's actually allergic to bee-wasp stings (and doesn't carry an epi-pen)?! Then tells me he'll hit them with a few quick shots of his spray to tick them off, then he'll nail them full force.

My office window overlooks this area....poor guy, standing outside of his truck, sprays the YJs a few times, quickly jumps in his truck, hops back out to nail them again, back in the truck. I know I shouldn't be laughing, but this really is a great show.....my description doesn't do this justice. What a terrible job.....

This is not reality, this is actuality!! (To steal from RealTV)....

It kinda sounds like an episode of Three Stooges.

If I had this job I would wear a metal suit. He's jumping in and out of the truck? What, is he going to kill these things two at a time?

Guerilla warfare against yellow jackets. I love it.

LOL For the past 20 minutes, he's been sitting in his truck, sticking the sprayer out of the door and blasting them. The only thing that would make this better is if he was on overweight good ol' Southern boy showing some butt crack! Alas, he's a nice older gentleman....

I can't believe he's trying to shoot them out of the air like that. He's going to cover your neighborhood in an insecticide cloud.

I'd have thought he'd just find the yellow jacket hole, lair, den, nest or whatever you call it and put the chemicals right in there.

In order to find their hole, he had to nail them to piss them off.....he jumped in his truck because their "lookout guys" came from a pear tree behind him and went after his sprayer. This really is a crazy job! Anyway, he soaked the mulch and bushes.....said it will take a good 30 minutes before they start to die. Later, when their pals come for a visit, they'll touch the stuff and eventually die as well. He did say he found 2 holes and he nailed them good......but if the problem persists, he'll have to come back in his special suit and foam the holes.

Sounds like a good start to one of the "Real Men of Genius" commercials.

"Mister Yellow Jacket Killer Guy...

That's one job I'm not ashamed to admit I could never do.
