Wasps

If you have an Ace Hardware nearby, they carry a foaming spray that is wonderful on things like this. It sprays out in a small but powerful stream (good spray distance) and then when it hits it expands/foams. This foam clings to everything it hits, weighing down the wasp so it can't fly, and then within a few seconds the bug dies anyhow. If you are concerned about getting stung, wear a large hat with a mesh netting over your head, blue jeans, and a jacket with some leather gloves. Yeah it's hot, but only for a few minutes.

Why not invite a few bud's over fer a bbq and a couple cold ones. then get on of them to use a garden hose to stand back and drown out the nest.

How about using one of those bug bombs in the cab? With the doors closed I would think that the gasses would get into all the nooks and crannies of the whole cab, and probably all the way into the engine compartment. Just remember that the gasses are highly flammable, and the concentration level in the cab would be a bomb waiting to go off. You would not want to open the doors for a few days at least. And disconnect the battery for sure.

Elvis, I believe this is the best advice yet. I think I'll have another cold one.

Drive it up to the fire department and let them smoke the wasps out, they got the gear. Don't forget the beers :)

grtz sax

So NOW we're going to spray a garden hose in this guy's truck vents? First expanding insecticide foam, now water. This fukkin truck ought to be in real good shape when you all are done with it.

OMG!! I missed one. NOW we're going to smoke damage the entire interior of the truck.

Have a beer steve ! or a joint, and mellow out! Or maybe you should get in his truck and dig out the wasps with a Q-Tip. lol youv'e flamed 3 ideas. but have you presented any ?

Bug Bomb and shut the doors for interior bugs. (Good post Wendy) The vent or drain or whatever ya call it under the windshield, on the exterior, use a garden hose.

On the other hand if the wasps in your neighbourhood are about 6 feet tall, and wear shiny shoes, go with smith and wesson. just kidding.lol

Why not let the truck idle for a bit so it gets real hot, wear some thick clothing, turn the heater to its hottest setting, set it to the vents, roll down the windows, hit the fan and run like hell! Burn those SOB's right out of your vents.

Yes, as a matter of fact I did post a perfectly good suggestion that works. And it does not ruin the truck or blow it up. Thanks for the input.

The second reasonable suggestion on this matter.

actually steve, I count your name 4 times now in this thread, and not one of the posts was a suggestion.

Flames 3 repeaters 1.

Well having looked back at the already read posts, I stand corrected. I had a little issue with Outlook last night and it was during that reply that it crashed. I'll post my suggestion as a reply to the original note.

Cover where the air shoots out of with lots of duct tape.

Try the "just vent" idea first - it's cheaper.

Carl

I saw that movie once too!!

John

Yep. It shouldn't be too difficult to wipe out once the buggers are dead. If you don't first kill them, you can never get to the second step.

Big Chris

A cowboy hat or something of that wide brimmed style would work fine (a women's sun hat). Wal-Mart sells golf hats cheap in this style. For the netting, any good sporting goods store should have them. Walmart or Ace Hardware might also (our local Target has them I know). Worst case, get some window screen and drape it over your head, and then secure it over the collar of your shirt/jacket (Duct Tape opportunity!).

The foam can be wiped out once you kill the wasps. The can can tell you some of the basic Haz/Mat info, and the rest you can look up online. If you don't know how/where to access Haz/Mat info let me know and I'll dig out my links to this stuff.

Can you explain why you are such a

the mat for something stupid, he rarely responds.
