River Rat said:Get the nest!!! Not now, but in the dead of the winter. Build a fire under or close by to smoke the hornets out. Those nests are selling for around $50 each. I have 2; one found by my husband 40+ years ago and another by my son about 14 yrs ago. I have them preserved & displayed.

Clear Plastic Bag over The Nest.
Then cut the Limb.
and store it till they all smother.

to do that.
River Rat said:Those ground hornets are the worst, cause you never know where the nest is. I had my share of attacks, they're horrible and hurt like h--l.
