Recommendations for getting rid of bald faced hornet nest in my apple tree…
Hey everyone, I’m new to the sub, but I’m looking for a way to get a bald faced hornet nest, roughly the size of a football down from my apple tree.
It’s hanging about 7 feet above the ground and so it’s easily accessible for me. I’ve tried using a few foaming sprays at night, drenching the nest, and especially the opening, but it doesn’t seem to work as there’s still a lot of activity several days later.
with my research so far, it seems like a propane flamethrower is the best option... it’s rained a lot where I am recently and it’s hanging on the end of one of the branches that is lowdown. To me it doesn’t seem like a fire risk based on where it’s located on the tree.
It’s too close to where my kids play so I need to get it done. The pest control company in my area quoted me $450.😫
