Answer 1

i have found that a spray can of brake cleaner works fast and very well.the way i found out ,i was working on the brakes on my pick-up and didnt know i had parked over a nest.

Answer 2

Most any type of fuel will kill insects. Used to use home heating oil to get rid of wasp nests. But the spray cans of wasp and bee killer you can buy in stores work faster and better. Believe me, you do not want a nest of pissed off bumblebee's after you! Lol. Been there, done that!

Answer 3

since this is a garden forum

Remember Bumblebees are a major pollenator.

When you sit down to dinner, after you load your plate, then remove about 3/4 of the food on your plate, whats left is what you will have w/o bees

If the borrow is in the ground an environmentally safe way to get rid of them is to mix a bucket of very viscous mud and pour it into the hive all the mud will be too difficult for them to repair and they'll move on.

Answer 5

Yes. The Wasp and Hornet spray you buy is petrolium based. I use diesel exclusively.

Roots prefer leaves to maintain them. Starve maximum wood for a 365 days, and the roots exchange into fungus-food.
