Its a litlle known tribe called the Yellowjackets. It may not be evident I am talking about those winged lightning bolt terrors the wasps. They still hold two of my arrows prisoner. You remember these were two heaven sent shafts which landed close to their nest.

All attempts at retreaval were rebuffed in a most unseemingly uncivilised manner.
It may be because the feathers on the shaft were their own colors . Two black and a yellow. They are even cut in a wing shape. Could the little bastids think they have been invaded by super bugs and so are in constant uproar . Could they see them as some kind of peace offering from a lesser weaker tribe?
Mayhaps they think of them as totems to be religiously guarded from all attempts of desecration.

Whatever the little pinpricks think I want them back. Who cares they cost only a few dollars and a days work . Who cares if I have spent an afternoons worth of time scouting possible places of ingress . My attemps at infiltration have been futile . I have been found out and churried off like a common dog. A dog I tell you . No more . They may keep the arrows . I will have my revenge and they will get the shaft.

How cold must it be and for how long before they go dormant/freeze their butts off. It gets as cold as forty degrees here at night . Maybe a degree or two colder where they are. They are on a hillside well guarded by brush .
 
me not knowing exactly the surroundings of the place and the exact proximity of the arrows leads me to believe smoking them might just get you in there for a long enough time to get at the arrows. Could you use gasoline? or some sort of bee spray?
 
What part of Canada are you in? If you are close to edmonton Ill give you a smoke candle that clears bees and wasp out nothing flat. ( I dont think Ill be able to ship them) Best of all they are non toxic to humans. Your best bet would be to go at night when the wasps are more dossile, wear heavy clothing, thick gloves and get yourself one of those cheap mosquitoe nets from walmart and you should have no problem.
 
I would try to smoke the wingid minions out first. If that doesn't work, napalm the entire area with Raid.

When you're done, hang a few dead and bloating bodies on the shrub as a reminder not to come back;) :D
 
Is it a nest in the ground or on a tree? If it's in the ground, spray it hard with a hose for a few minutes, getting closer as the bees stop coming out. Then grab the arrows and run away. If you're fast enough you can probably just run up to it and grab them without stopping and be gone before the wasps get you.
 
Kamakazie Run!:eek: don't trip!:D BIC lighter in front of the RAID, Flame them out!
 
You are in Canada, and it's November. You must have Eskimo Killer Bees.
AT night, in the 40's? Should be able to walk up and dance a jig on their nest.

Offer them some smoked chile, make a trade.

If it gets down to 32° they should be done for.

It has already been down to 29° here in Maryland.
Where in Canada are you, the Canadian Riviera?

OK, I'll vote for the Kamakazie run, but only if you film it.

Ah when it gets down to entertainment you know who your friends are.

What are the last two things a redneck says? Hold my beer. and Watch this.

You guys are a riot.:rolleyes: You want me to run in there with my vid cam and liven things up for you ? Well O:K: but you are buying the beer.:grumpy:

A 30 can case of American Bud will do. Cold please. Y'all just drive em up to the Lacoole border at midnite and wait for me . I,ll be along directly .

Seriously . I,m almost sure the nest is in the ground . The bush is so thick I can,t see too well . Worse thing is . I,m not exactly sure where the arrows are. Yeah I,ll give it a few more nights and give it a go.

B:T:W: the last guy who went in after em came running out so hard he dropped his wallet. These are proabably the most expensive arrows I ever made.
 
American Bud?? ptttoooooeee!!
Funny, Americans want the Canadian beer, the Canadians now want Bud?

For ground bees, in the summer , IF I know where their hole is:

Get a bucket, water and ice (add some bug juice too)
Wait until night fall, and douce the hole with ice water.
Cold makes em stay put, then the bug juice takes hold, and they are goners.

Kevin, if you knew where the hole was located, you could do the ice water trick, but, I guess we have to settle for the Kamakazie Video Run, instead. :eek:

I know we don't really know each other but here is an idea: :thumbup:

For a small fee, I will drive up there and do the "running" (right after I hand you my half empty bottle of Kokanee). If I make it our with the arrows, GREAT. Beers and steak for everyone. If the little minions attack me, we sell the video to a advertising firm that will surely use it for a Super-bowl commercial and we make millions. Sounds just stupid enough to work right:D
 
Don't forget to grab the wallet on the way back. You know, you could just pour a bucket of liquid nitrogen on them and freeze dry them. Or napalm. Yeah, napalm. then blast them with some #8 shot from the ol 12 guage.
 
Nah Canadians want 5% bud. I like American Budweiser to start the evening,It has a cleaner bite to it.:thumbup:

I used to overimbibe down there and wake up at a friends house of a Sunday.
We would drink Genny cream ale and throw horseshoes . Dang guy never told me I have to take them off the horse first.:grumpy: Biggest damn horsefly you ever did see.:p ....... got me a ringer too.;)
 
Kevin, what you need is my drink of choice:
DogFishHead IPA 90 9% ABV.

Great taste less filling.
 
A can of ether starting fluid has a good range, just spray down the nest and keep spraying anything that moves, and throw a lit match at it.

oh and run :D


works for me.
