    I came to notice a yellowjacket wasp hive beneath my neighbors roof and I let him know about a month ago. Fast-forward to today and the mother er now has THREE big hives. Whats worse is the biggest hive is about ten feet away from my home and its a hive thats like covered in a shrub.. We have a garden plus various fruit trees and everytime we go out to water 10+ of these things pop up out (whose to blame them when its like 100+ degrees here). Now if I had the equipment I'd go in and take care of but I don't. What the heck do I do tbh? Is anybody familiar with the legalities of this? It's complete ing bull cause I got three big inside/outdoor dogs who are at any moment susceptible to being stung if they disturb the nearest hive.


    I've never had to deal with bull like this before...

    I would just spray the hives and get rid of them. It's not like the neighbor would get mad for killing those ing things.

    Obviously he's not going to do it.

    A lot of sprays reach 25-40, iirc. I'd empty a couple of cans into that bush if that were that close to me.

    Get that stuff that foams up and do it in the evening. Works like a charm. Then just let that drip down and watch them fall down dying. You don't even have to worry about clean up because it's your neighbors place. Let him walk out and step on one of those stingers.

    i would go the head route depending on what type of neighbor it is. if we haven't had any problems in the past and they're decent, then yea, i'd be cordial. but if its that trashy ass neighbor then i'm going to be an ass.

    just a buy a sprayer and see if it will shoot the 10 ft you need...or step over there and spray when you think no one's home...

    I once had an Asian neighbor from ...and this ing guy was insane...he got mad because I entertained girls at my crib all the time..they'd come over in Bikini's and hang out around the yard...this er was jealous..complained about loud noises and I told him to off I was living here first...he was married to a young hispanic lady...maybe early - mid 30's...they had twins....their bathtub faced my drive way...instead of putting up block glass they put up plain see through glass with curtains...now I would come home from the gym about 4 pm each day and she'd be in the tub bathing (at the same time) with the curtain open..so I would just sit in my car and watch...he saw me and got mad...not my problem..I figured she wanted me to see...she would stand up in her tub and wash her ass and s right in front of me....I was like close the ing curtains if not I'm looking until she's done...he then came over again saying I was throwing cigarettes in his yard when it was his 16 yr old son dropping them down from the 2nd floor window...then he threatened to shoot my lawn guy... he came ringing my door bell again so I stepped outside with him and told him if he knocked on my door one more time with some bull he was gonna have some real problems that he didn't want...that lil short er never bothered me again...

    I long since moved but last I heard from my old neighbors was that he caught his 16 yr old son in his wife and chased them out the house with a butcher knife...he stayed with his wife but sent is kid back to Thailand I think...

    Wasps swarm and kill animals all the time. I've seen 2 dogs killed by wasps on the news here in SA so far this summer.

    Be sure to spray in the evening if you do, thats when all the bees will be at the nest and the less active.

    Roll up a newspaper, set it afire, and burn the hives. They won't return if you burn them. I wouldn't recommend going anywhere near you neighbor's house with fire though

    Okay so I tried taking the nearest (biggest) hive out and unfortunately disturbed the hive. I was stung twice, on my neck and literally on my ass. Thinking of calling pest control. The hive is even bigger than I thought. The thing probably has 100+ wasps.

    What I'm afraid of is alarming the other two hives. From what I read, if you alarm a hive, a nearby hive will participate in a swarm because of the common pheromone released. Yeah, that.

    You have to wait until night time....

    I'm allergic, so I wait until night, spray, and then run like a child.

    Did the neighbor know you were trying to get rid of the hive or did they see you? If not, you can just act like that didn't happen and say you have been stung twice and ask again for him to take care of it asap.
