    I'd just burn down the blind.

      I learned the hard way that they really hate weedeaters. I accidentally ran into a nest of them one time while weedeating a fencerow. Fortunately, they stung the booger out of the weedeater so I left it running and dropped it and ran away unscathed. I hate 'em!

            I guess I gotta tell this story. A couple of years ago I was running around our lease filling feeders when one of the rear slave cylinders started leaking brake fluid. Every time I pushed on the brakes I would lose more fluid. I started using the emergency brake to stop so I wouldn't have to push on the brake pedal. I didn't have any brake fluid with me but the LO had an old truck parked by the cabin we stay in. I checked and sure enough, in the tool box, was a can of brake fluid. BUT there was also a huge red wasp nest in the tool box right above the can of brake fluid

            I suited up. Jacket on? check. Hood cinched up? check. Leather gloves? check. (never mind that it was 100+ outside). I vvveeerrryy ssslllooowwwllllyyyy reached in and grabbed the brake fluid bottle ready to bolt and flail my arms like a mad man at any moment. Ya know what happened?














            The bottle was empty and the wasps never moved

              Spectracide Wasp Killer. White and Black can. Whatever the stuff is made of electrocutes the little savages in their tracks. Just get a can, and walk up to the nest on a nice chilly morning, while they're still froze up so to speak, and have your way with them. They'll all be dead before they know what hit them.

                I thought he was having a problem with them swarming and not a nest. Ditto on the spectracide spray (the one I get is green)...I get the large 2 packs at Lowes...reasonably priced, shoots 20 feet, really whacks them.
