    I suggest employing 10 year old boy, with a garden hose and a cricket bat.

    Don't kill bees, bees are good.

    Wasps should die a slow painful death, but bees FTW.

    Yes, they do. Being mild-mannered means it is quite rare, though.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Bumble bees DO sting - I have had direct proof of that....when I leaned my arm on one - by mistake I might add......but they are quite hard to rile unlike the loony wasps.........try not to kill 'em if you can avoid it - they are valuable for pollination in greenhouses among other things.....

    bumblebees, as usual, it is only the female ones that sting.

    Just clarifying here, the BoraBombs of which I spoke are not a spray can thing. They are a bomb, with a fuse that you light with a match. Then they sort of explode, in a controlled sort of way. Sort of. But not a spray can, and not ordinary insect spray.

    I too have been pwned by a bumblebee sting, on the crown of my head nonetheless. that sucked. However, unlike wasps, they die afterwards.
    Just grab the nest and shake that sucker. Take it like a man, they should all die after they've stung you. Problem solved.
