Yesterday, a colony of bees decided to argue with me about who lived in my house. Now normally I am a live and let live kind of guy. But these bees liked the pillar right next to my front door. And religious missionaries and Real Estate salemen aside, this could become inconvenient. Like every time I wanted to leave. So after the garden hose failed to convince them to move on, I made them an offer they couldnt refuse.. Its very quiet out there today..😷

@Tastyfrzz The garden hose only upset them. And sadly they wouldnt leave after that. So I waited until after dark (when they all come home) and used a can of surface insectacide with a straw extension on the nozzle to squirt it up into the crack they used to enter and leave. Since they only just arrived they hadnt had time to build much and the whole area inside is now toxic to them..Lord knows how many more bodies are inside. But nothing is moving now..😷
@whowasthatmaskedman ive been spraying the soffit under the garage every spring to keep them from building on it. I tried the spray when they got under the house siding but it was too late. Ended up wrapping the side of the house with heavy foil and taped it down. Eventually they died off.
@Tastyfrzz You can buy a white powder for wasps and ants. lay it at the entraces and they carry it inside and it kills the queen in a few days. But gravity and time were against me. I need to get in and out that door.😷
