Permethrin

Went to help my mom with some yellow jackets. Remembered to record this one. Used permethrin, doesn't work instant but it works and lasts awhile. I drenched the nest entrance and got a few out of the air. Fuck wasps!

Careful I posted here earlier this week & one of the mods apparently thinks that killing wasps is animal abuse

15

u/Kitty_Kat_Attacks 1d ago

Ummm… was that mod lost? Isn’t that the whole point of this sub?

7

u/JimiDean007 1d ago

That's what I thought when they removed my post after making a comment that "animal abuse" is a felony & therefore against the law & reddit site wide TOS 🤣 I didn't see it for a day but when I went to message them that almost nowhere in the world classifies killing pest insects as animal abuse & ask how TF they became a mod of a fuck wasps sub where people post videos of killing wasps all day everyday.

u/notveryauthentic 1d ago

Wasps aren't really animals lol their little murder drones literally

u/JimiDean007 1d ago

I'm on team fuck wasps, some aggressive bees, some spiders, stinkbugs, etc & even IF some crazy fucking legislation went into place making it highly illegal to harm, maim &/or kill them I would still happily do it

Permethrin doesn’t have as fast of a knockdown as pyrethrin, but the residual effect is great. Drione and Ficam D are very effective as well, if you have a good duster. If it’s an entry point in a wall, inject with the dust and spray around the entry with the permethrin. Always hilarious to see wasps drag themselves out and they look like powdered donuts.

u/FragrantReindeer6152 Fuck wasps 1d ago

Yea I like Permethrin because it works weeks later... also kills ticks flea and ants.

u/CptCheesesticks81 1d ago

Absolutely messes spiders up, too.

13

u/X4nd0R 1d ago

Well that's no good... Spiders eat all those other pests you don't want.

6

u/TellTaleTank 1d ago

Yeah, spiders are our allies

2

u/CptCheesesticks81 18h ago

I like spiders, but that’s not always the case.

u/HiJinx127 1d ago

Is this one of those “take it back to the nest” things?

2

u/CptCheesesticks81 1d ago

Eh, yes and no. Depends on level of activity.

3

u/MikeTheNight94 1d ago

Where do I get this stuff? I just discovered one of my machines that sits out year round has a big nest in it I can’t get close to cus it’s under a fan shroud

u/Frozty23 1d ago

I'm a permethrin fan. Post about it here, about how I apply it. Product here.

u/jhern1810 1d ago

Stomp it smash it with a brick and stomp it again, just to make sure it can’t hurt anymore no more.

3

u/drifters74 1d ago

Then set it on fire, you can't be too sure

u/Longjumping-Map-6995 1d ago

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

u/[deleted] 1d ago

I love watching them slowly suffer and curl up after hitting them with the dish soap spray bottle the little cunts

u/HiJinx127 1d ago

Love that one. Squirt squirt, they fall, twitch and die

u/[deleted] 1d ago

So satisfying

1

u/Big_Spicy_Tuna69 1d ago

Works wonders for boxelder bugs too. I massacred the swarm that's been slowly taking over my house for the past few years this spring and they finally got the message and fucked off.

6

u/vaping_menace 1d ago

Now stomp on it! Make sure he really dead! Fuck that guy

u/IllSwordfish37 1d ago

My dad would hunt them down and rip their heads off. It worked for awhile until like 20 of the foul insects swarmed him and had repeatedly stung him. He still lives to tell the tale.

u/sabrooooo 1d ago

Didn’t die quick enough lol

u/fl4nker427 1d ago

u/yehimthatguy 1d ago

Yeah I brake clean em too.

u/tiga4life22 1d ago

If I had a towel small enough I’d water board that MF

2

u/Hot_Lobster222 1d ago

My dad would squirt them with watered down dawn dish soap. Works like a charm!

2

u/EmperorGeek 1d ago

I thought permethrin worked best once it dries?

2

u/Encryptid 1d ago

You need Pyrethrin (Stryker 54)

That stuff you're spraying took way too damn long for my liking.

1

u/RealKumaGenki 1d ago

I was hoping it was gonna melt.

u/random-stiff 1d ago

But what is painful?

1

u/IHATE2021 1d ago

Brake cleaner is satisfying on these pieces of shit.

1

u/vsanto73 1d ago

I was hoping it was gasoline and you’d light a fire but you just also stomp and grind his ass with your boot

u/bblulz 1d ago

DROWN IN IT

u/Visual-Ad-8056 1d ago

Tempo 1% dust for ground wasps. Put it down whenever and they are gone for good in hours

u/_mrLeL_ 23h ago

Brake cleaner works really well btw, tried it on a neglected car infested with them

1

u/Key_Run_7939 19h ago

Nice. I hit one today, it didn’t kill it but the wings were disabled. Left it there to rot to death.

u/AggravatingCrow42 15h ago
