Some weird bee's I have encountered.

I took nearly 40 stings one terrible day... I passed out.  It was a nightmare.  I was just a young pup.

I can't really tell from your video, but the ones that stung me were not 'hairy' or 'fuzzy.'

I understand they are technically not bees, but a kind of wasp.  In my neck of the woods we called them 'yellow jackets.'

Unless I'm misinformed... it was ages ago.

Yellow jackets nest in the ground and not in wood. You have to watch out about them buzzing around the ground. These are carpenter bees, they bore into wood and weaken it.

Two totally different bugs.

They was vicious, mean and very hostile. me and my roommate got stung a few times by them and the was very painful lingering pain. We tried all kinds of sprays on them, even bleach. Finally my roommate got real brave and drunk and put on 3 or more hoodies, sweat pants, duct tape and a hockey mask and physically tore apart the nest and squashed them to bit's. The size of the infestation of these ferocious little tyrants was incredible.

Next time try hot sauce. It works quick and is safer then the spray can stuff.
Does anyone know the minimum safe distance of ignorance?
