That's great! When I was a young teen, we had glass 32oz coke bottles with screw on caps. We'd fill with true LEADED gasoline, and carry them to a drainage culvert. We'd go down below the street, and light a small fire on a cement step below a manhole 10 or so feet. We'd then go to the top, and throw the glass gas bottle down. Fire would blast through the manhole 6-7 feet, and then fire would float out the other side of the street where the creek came back out. It was too cool.

:rofl:

GREAT pictures as well, wished half the build threads on here had such nice pictures showing the action The commentary was hysterical too, only way it could have been any more full of win is if it was video taped as well.

I'd have to say my pansy ass would have been in the house, and not coming out until somebody came and got them.

Great thread!

Should have been able to do it 20 feet away with Wasp&Hornet killer. I swept a can of that side to side in a 1ft wide section of a bush in Florida where I saw a Hornet fly in. After a good two second sweeping spray one fell out.. and then several more fell out. I swear by the stuff; it works great!

On a related note, I tried to use some of that as a flamethrower to kill "banana spiders" in Korea, but the spray was strong and would not light. The fine mist of OFF! spray would ignite however. We sprayed a fireball from that, and then sprayed wasp&hornet killer through the flame and MAN, THAT worked! I bet it would have done an amazing job on that bee nest, and a "windproof lighter/crack-torch" would probably do well for ignition.

You didn't get this idea from me, though.

he shouldn't have had to pay someone to come get the bees, people with honey {is 'farms' the right word?} would have come to get them for free. we had a buncha honeybees move in at the airport for a few days, and a beekeeper came and got them for free.

I am personally nearly phobic of bees and alergic as well (helps fuel the phobia unfortunately) and wouldnt have been able to stand doing that in the first place, and I hate to sound sappy, but I felt sorry for the bees. They obviously werent being agressive (not africanized) and were certainly just a colony expansion swam. Yes a beekeeper would have surely come and removed them for free. Also, there is currently a great demand for healthy bees as there is a bad disease dramatically affecting bee populations right now.

Its was however a funny read.

It's also a damn old thread on their forums, and it was on the Christmas holiday...

 

[wiseco7mgt]

i hate to say it but i like bees and think there couldve been a better way to remove them, like borrow a honey suit and a fogger and get them all in a hession bag and take them out the bush somewhere.If it was wasps then it would have been a different story.:naughty:

 

[tlo86]

rofl wow

 

[buckshotglass]

They would have left peacefully in a day or less, but I have called a beekeeper for a small swarm like that, and they declined.
nice job, pyro.

 

[shenronzero]

that is great... now if he only could have made some sort of flame thrower it would have been that much better
