This Bald Faced Hornets nest is 4-5 feet tall, taller than many adult humans! You can measure it against the 12 inch rows of siding upon which it is built. The nests grow this way when they are knocked down without being killed. The queen has the nest re-built and they bridge the walls all the way up to the soffit

Apparently these are called "stovepipe" nests. I've done a few of these, but never one that tall.
Any solid idea on what causes that? I'm going on an educated guess
@@TheBeeMan From what I understand when the comb set detaches from the substrate, the wasps build downwards and the comb set keeps getting pushed down. Nests attached to a metal surface do not bind well.
@@herc1120 that's fascinating, thanks for the info!
@@TheBeeMan I had one of those large paper wasp hives inside an exterior wall that had no insulation in it in a house up in Oregon. I was doing a complete remodel on the house and had no idea the hive was there. While doing demo I pulled off a 4' x 8' sheet of the old paneling on the inside of the house. When I did that it pulled off one complete side of the nest with it and exposed the inside of the nest... which had 13 very precise "levels" to it. It was really impressive...very cool. Because the nest was built between the studs it was the full 16" wide and 4" thick. The top of the nest was about a foot from the ceiling and 2 feet from the floor so it was every bit of 5 feet long. Thankfully the nest had been abandoned years earlier but it had been perfectly preserved inside that wall and was an amazing thing to see. It was shaped just like the nest in this video. As a side note that same house main floor beams had been completely bored into by carpenter bees. The beams showed no evidence of an infestation on the outside of the beams whatsoever ..but when I had to cut thru them they looked like swiss cheese inside. The holes were side by side and round as a pencil that tunneled the entire 30 foot length of those beams. That too was an amazing sight. I had no idea there was such a thing as carpenter bees. They're a large black bee. I found out later they don't actually eat the wood..they just bore it out to make a hive. Go figure. There were a few dead ones inside the beams and an old timer told me thats what they were. Live n' learn eh!
HI Herc, so i had a question........Ok so you don't actually kill the hornets, just destroy their nests? Won't they just come back and build another nest like wasp do? I've destroyed wasp nests and they just come right back year after year. I have to kill the little buggers in order to get rid of them.

This looks like the sorta job where you check 10 times that all your protective gear is on correctly and securely. Then a couple more times to be safe.
You don't have to check it the bees, hornets, etc will show you. (don't ask me how I know as a former beekeeper)

I have never seen a nest so big. I also didn't realize how hollow they are. While I am not allergic to the poison, I still hate being stung by them. As a mailman it was an occupational hazard, especially with mailboxes covered in potted plants or bushes. Very pretty but also dangerous.
A few years ago my dad got stung in the head by four hornets while he was chopping some wood. After 10 minutes he collapsed and started to vomit, lost his sight and went to anaphylaxis. He was completely alone in the woods except for our dog Dero that started to bark and never left him. Thank god my dad always hated everything that was even slightly "digital" and still had one of those old Nokias with real buttons. He started to count the numbers with his thumb and manged to call an ambulance. They found him because they could hear Dero barking in the woods and saved him with an adrenaline injection. He was really lucky, these bastards are really dangerous. Also, Dero died a couple of years later. RIP fella, and thanks for saving dad.
Thanks for sharing 🙏 RIP Dero

Yeah I caught that too. At the most, that hornets nest is maybe 2'. Which is still pretty long. But far from 5'...
Yea you can count the ribs on the siding- 4 8” ribs =32”
It's called perspective. He's three times closer to the camera than the nest is. Hence he looks three times bigger. If you freeze frame whilst he's got his hand on the nest, you can see it looks a lot smaller than his other hand. There! Youve' learnt something today ! Also, as he points out, it's more than four one-foot boards high.
@@starpawsy I call bs. The camera is not that close to the nest or ladder and the effect you’re describing is negligible. It’s called clickbait and it’s okay to admit that you were duped.
@@wompbozer3939 He counted out four full boards and almost a half board above and almost a half board below. That's almost five full boards. So there's that. It's OK to admit you dont understand perspective. A lot of people dont. You need a bit of an artist's or an engineer's eye to do it. THat/s OK.
I was always taught never try and remove or kill a nest during the day because most of the colony is foraging wait for night because the entire colony will be inside
Yeah I’ve heard that too and it makes sense but when I had a large hornets nest removed, 3 out of the 4 companies I called were all planning to do it in the middle of the afternoon. Only one guy said he would come first thing in the morning. 🤷🏼♂️
Without the nest the die from exposure, I have a wasp nest on my balcony and I wouldn't remove it except I'm allergic. They're pollinators and we need them but anaphylaxis is no joke.
Hit it with a football and run like hell, works every time.
Shiiiiiiiitt............
Lol I would die because I'm fat as fk
First dress someone you don't like a football jersey so the hornets go after him!
Fred Andrews what
Well you better run faster than sonic the hedgehog because these things fly FAST.
There,s got to be an easier way of doing this like stuffing a bomb in the nest.Then come back the next day and repair the shed.
Great idea.
😂
I like your ways.
they dont fly at night
marinexplosives Cost money though
I know people hate them but if you've ever watched how they build those, especially something as tall as I am) it is truely amazing to watch. They chew up certain kinds of wood and build those one tiny mouthful of chewed wood at a time. Think about the time and work but into making that
I was wondering about that
Part of me feels bad for them but the other part would do the same thing if they do much as stung me one time They decimate bee hives and sting people, so maybe it's not so terrible to rid your property of them
It is fascinating and amazing intricate work! I've only taken one down because they were stinging me when I did yard work. Bald faced hornets. They are mean. But, yes the nests are amazing.

@@Gatorgolfusa Well, hornets are wasps.
I’m totally surprised how soft the nest is, I imagined that to be stone hard, to resist heavy weather. It seems so easy to pick it apart. 😮
They're just made of paper essentially! The outer case especially, but the inner stuff can have the consistency of, say, those compressed paper drink holders you get sometimes from fast food places.
That has to be the worst wasp nest removal that I've seen
My reaction would have been, "Well, that's theirs now." And then I'd never come back to that corner of the yard.

I had one last summer up in the covered soffit of my porch. Hornets were getting in around the vents in the soffit. It had been an issue for two years. Watching then going in and out through the cracks. I finally pulled down the soffit during the winter and found their nest. It was about 18" across in the shape of a ball. Being winter, I guess they all died off, so I pulled it all down. Was real nervous at first poking at it. Not knowing if it was full of hornets.

I am certain that it was a four-foot sphere. I have been trying to hunt down the pictures we took of it as it burned to post because it was huge. Big enough for my 120-pound dog to go inside.

I came across a large wasp nest beside a playground. I didn’t have any wasp spray but I couldn’t leave it with so many kids around. I found some cans of orange fluorescent marker paint and stood by the opening of the nest letting any wasp coming or going have a shot. They usually dropped immediately because the paint is heavy on their wings but a few flew away. It was pretty funny because you could see them flying away for a long time with that marker paint on them. When they came back I’d spot them immediately and give them another blast. When things calmed down I sprayed right into the opening and that was the end of the colony.
I got stung by a wasp in the ear once. Those sounds you hear when they hit the camera, very similar to what I heard. The sting and impact actually make a freaky violent noise, I heard buzz getting closer then a *SNAP* and I was stung
Imagine seeing all your hard work destroyed in minutes by a strange, giant bipedal creature who just ignores all your attempts to sting him.

Those Hornets can find another place to live maybe at your house but not mine. This is why we have exterminators. What these hornets do is make paper, eat and multiply and they have a hell of a sting. The Sting is like heating up a 16 penny nail red hot and stick it on your arm for 2 seconds. It will take a week or so for it to heal. As long as you don't get stung by 5 of the killer Hornets 1 to 10 times in one minute. They are aggressive so don't swat at them. Watch the children. One sting can put you into shock. It's not like a honey bee or a wasp.

I had one hit me in the middle of my forehead and it knocked me flat on my back. I first thought I had been shot until noticed the bugger on the ground. True story.
Hornets are the worst for pain. Their venum has actually less total toxins then a honey 🐝, but the toxins that hornets do have are the most dangerous. Then comes Wasps & Yellow Jackets. They also have very bad toxins, but as same with hornets, they have less of a total toxic cocktail then a honey 🐝 And do think of it as an actual cocktail. The honey bee is like a 5oz Long Island Ice Tea. Many different liquor ingredients. But 1 drink won't mess u up if you're an average sized male. A hornets venum is like a 5 oz glass of moonshine. Only 1 liquor ingredient, but 1 glass will mess u up silly. But hornets & wasps aren't really the problem with us. They make their nests up high off the ground (mostly) and they are only concerned with hunting for other insects to eat. They want nothing to do with us. And actually, wasps & hornets often give u a warning "buzz by" before they sting to warn u that you're too close to their nest. Wasps give the most deliberate warnings. They often literally fly about 1-2 ft from ur face & hover up & down a few times to back u off. And u better back off though! Lol. The biggest problem with the stinging insects are those nasty, mean, hot tempered Yellow Jackets.(close relative of the hornet). There's actually 3 types of yellow jackets & one of the types is the 'bald faced hornet' which is actually technically not a hornet but in fact a yellow jacket, but yet called the bald faced hornet. Lol. Very confusing. But here in Pennsylvania we just simply call those "bald faced hornets" by what they really are,, which is 'Yellow Jacket Hornets' The difference between hornets & yellow jackets is their length. Yellow jackets are smaller then hornets, but the "Yellow Jacket Hornets' are similar in length to hornets, but slimmer. Confusing, yes. Yellow jackets are by far the ones most responsible for people getting stung. I'd say yellow jackets are responsible for 90-95% of all stings here in America. There are many problems with the yellow jackets. One problem is because they build their nests in the ground or near areas where most people navigate/work. Another problem is that they don't lose their stingers when they sting. So they can sting u over & over again. Another problem is that hornet & wasp colonies are small. Hornets may get a couple thousand in general population areas, whereas the yellow jacket nest that your landscaper told u you have in your back yard has anywhere from 5-15,000 "colony members" Another problem is that yellow jackets also like the things we eat. That's why they're always flying around our garbage cans & always hovering over our drinks when we're outside eating & drinking. Whereas wasps & hornets only sting to defend their nest (whenever u swat them away, they simply fly away), yellow jackets can sting if u piss them off for any reason. They give no warning. And I've personally been stung for no reason when I was several feet from any nest they had. Just last year I parked my car at a friend's house & noticed a yellow jacket nest 4 feet from my driver side door. As soon as I shut the door to get away from the nest a dam yellow jacket stung me twice in my ear! That's a bad place to be stung. My ear swelled up & the pressure it caused made me feel like I had an ear ache for several hours. SOB yellow jackets! They are literally SOB's because they're all the queens offspring.
@@flaccidego4291 lot of info but I followed it and understood. Makes sense. Damn yellow jackets. I also live in the US northeast and I get all that. So yellow jackets at least provide ecological benefits? Or are we only helping by killing their nests whenever possible?
@@flaccidego4291 you are right about the Hornets and the wasp. They will try to warn you off buy buzzing around your head so you will see them. How great is that, a warning Buzz before the sting LOL. I have found myself not really paying attention and them buzzing around a few times. I've had a few hit me without a sting. That was all the warning I need to get out of there. But that was wasp and not a hornet. The warning sound of the hornet you would have to be deaf to not hear them. If you have a three-second warning Buzz, you just might Escape without a sting. You may walk away for 5 seconds then run away for 10 to 15 seconds you should be far enough. But if not you better keep running. If you can run through the heavy brush is a lot better than very few trees or around the house. Don't ever think they can't follow you or see you. I hope this guy should not be on the ladder with this big of nest. I hope he had The Back-up crew with there sting proof suits on. If that ladder come Crashing Down with a big hornet's nest up above, is not a good combination.

@@sadman9022 Nah. that's a metal parking cover, not the house...
They stupid
I would too. Looks alot more spectacular that way
Pretty sure it’s a metal barn/shed, so definitely a flamethrower type situation
The wasps were really tempting fate with the "Giant Paper Dong" nest design.
Believe me when I tell you that I lived in that nest and I am planning. Best, Hornet.
"This is five feet tall" *says man twice the size of nest five feet tall*
It’s crazy when you hear them attacking hitting the camera. These things a vicious. People don’t realize how dangerous these are especially a nest that size.
Hell yes 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Oh that many in a nest this big could kill someone for sure
So sad we don’t realize how important these ‘vicious’ creatures are, but we will realize, maybe soon ;)
@@alijagic1975 Tell us about it, champ!! Hornets have VERY LITTLE benefit to the environment. They can kill humans. And some of them kill honey bees. Suck on that for awhile, erv.
@@alijagic1975 it’s a Hornet dude
That's the biggest doobie I've ever seen
That's a full blown blunt
How about the two of you pass that shit already
I didn’t expect to see you here
What a buzz
I dare ya to smoke it!
They never like it.
I don’t know why these guys don’t drop, contain, that into a bag with plenty of lining, put it in a chest freezer, (deep freezer) until they’re dead. Instead, he climbs on the ladder and starts picking it apart with his hands.
This guy has balls of steel. I keep honeybees and dont wear anything but a veil. I run like a girl from yellowjackets and this guy is playing with hornets. My hat is off to you sir.
I was just about to say something along that line... how does that ladder hold up the weight of his balls? That would have torched and the metal repainted.
He has all that armor on though
PUT YOUR HAT 👒 BACK ON YOUR GONNA GET STUNG!!!
"Balls" have nothing to do with it, kid. I've seen woman do this same job with just as much zeal and tenacity, they're are no doubt many woman/non binarys and even POCs and LGBTQs even who do this too who also deserve respect.
@@KrolKaz “Balls” in this case is a sense of bravado, a professionalism, an ability to remain cool in the face of what others fear. I’m sure any well trained person with the right personality and training would perform the task just as admirably. Never did I think I would have to explain the term “having balls” vs physically having a set of testicles.
Nest as tall as a human being. Pulls out a Walmart bag to put it in. 😂😂😂
That's a bit of a running gag on the channel ;-)
Big black bag straight knock off tie and exterminate
Yeah that's as tall as I am.
It’s hinting at something... now u have an easier way of storing bodies
You didn't notice that he vbrought two bags, huh.
Oh Disney is definitely coming up with another Bee movie. 🤣 Called: Destroyer of the Beeverse
In the Amazon you encounter wasps nests hanging from trees that several feet high. They are very dangerous if you hit one while in a canoe.
To all the "experts" commenting on how "they" could've done a better job, it appears this professional didn't have any problems exterminating this nest. And he did it in an admiral amount of time. I'm sure the home owner was satisfied. Plus, we got to see what he was showing inside the nest. Good job, and thanks for the video.
ok boomer! 👁 👁 👄
@Paul Kryder Ooops. Thanks for the correction Paul. :)
Anyone who does this job has my admiralation! 👁 👁 👄
@Robert Sanchez I'm pre-boomer so all you boomers out there... 👁 👁 👄 brothers & sisters, I PITY you LOL!!!
You know everyone on social media is a fucking expert! He got rid of the problem that's what matters!
First reaction: "You're gonna need a bigger bag".
🤣🤣🤣
I was thinking the same why not use a Contractor's bag and get the whole thing!? Maybe they can chew their way out if there's no queen to lure them?
6 foot hornet nest bodybag. One scoop. Done.
I would spend a minute, every day, just to check and see if a nest is being created. Preventive, possibly life saving, maintenance.
