So this was in the wall of your moblie home? It was up in the insulation. The top layer was attached to the floor of the mobile home and it layered down. In the picture, the layer all the way to the left is two stacked together and that was the top layer. FREAKIN' HOLY MOLEY ... (string of bad words)!!!!!!!!!!

I Drink Whiskey in Boys Shorts Posts: 1882	LRQHS - 2014-10-03 6:07 AM lurker - 2014-10-03 8:03 AM OMG this terrifies me! I am so scared of hornets, wasps, bees and anything that flies and wants to sting me. Very lucky that you arent allergic. Its good hubby is eliminating them. Glad you are ok. And heck today you can get away with saying whatever you want and can blame the benedryl! I wasn't too scared of them until so many swarmed me. I can handle some stings, but this was a LOT of them. I had to get off the lawn mower and couldn't really see where I was running to. I could have ran smack into the house because my direction was so thwarted lol. That would have been great. Knock myself out by hitting the house and just lay there for the hornets. I have such a sick sense of humor. I just laughed over the thought of you knocking yourself out and laying there for the hornets to do as they pleased. From the nice side of me: I am so glad you are okay. I HATE flying, stinging insects! And with all that said....answer my text already!

I Drink Whiskey in Boys Shorts Posts: 1882	LRQHS - 2014-10-03 7:29 AM Oh, for you few getting a laugh out of my near death experience lol, here's another visual. Fred always rides on the lawn mower with me. He sits on my left leg and I hold him with my left arm/arm pit. He will follow me around circle after circle after circle until I let him ride, so it's just an automatic thing now. Well, hornets are bearing down on me, swarming all around us and all I can think of first is my little Fred. I'm pretty sure I threw him a good 30 yards like a football lol. Hornets everywhere, chihuahua flying through the air, me running like a lunatic, beer flying everywhere......I'm pretty sure I didn't spill/throw my beer until I had at least 10 hits lol.. Ok. Now I am laughing harder! Hope I don't wake the baby.

Elite Veteran Posts: 1118 Location: The South	Oh my goodness I'm glad you're okay!!! I didn't know we had hornets here until this summer, I just thought it was a wasp nest at the very top of our barn until one fell in a water bucket...I was like, holy moly that is a wasp on steroids! I'm too chicken to spray the nest while I'm on a ladder so I'm just hoping they go away soon since its getting colder, and next year I'm paying someone to take the nest down if they come back!

Sock eating dog owner Posts: 4557 Location: Where the pavement ends and the West begins Utah	If your still burning make a paste of vinegar and backings soda and apply to the stings. We came across two nest in two weeks time getting stung by ground bees. I know your pain.

They stopped stinging within a few hours, but that night they H.U.R.T. lol. I was rubbing everything in the house on them. No lie, I even put some Vagisil on them. I don't recall why I had that and it was extremely old.....but, I'd have tried dog pee at that point lol.
