Shop Vac Sucks Away Hornet Problem
Bill Southwell found a new use for his shop vac when he discovered a nest of hornets under his deck. “I couldn’t get at the nest,” says Southwell. “To make matters worse, my dog’s house sits on the deck directly over where the nest was located. The entry and exit hole for the hornets was right in front of the dog house. Because it’s a low deck, I couldn’t get at it from underneath.”
After some thought he went for his shop vac.
“I laid the business end of the hose on the deck floor next to the hornets’ entry and exit and secured it with a floor mat. I turned on the machine, thumped on the dog house and stamped on the deck. As fast as the angry hornets came boiling out of their nest, the shop vac sucked them up. Not one got away. I repeated the process four times that day and once the next, and I followed each one with a healthy shot of Raid into the shop vac to settle the critters down. Problem solved.”
