Use a shovel and fling it onto the lawn. Then fire up the lawn mower and run over the vermin house (insect nest). Run the lawn mower over it again, and again, and again. Then one more time to be sure.

Okay, whatever comes out of that thing will probably kill you. I'd not personally fuck with it. Set up a game camera first, just to check.

Then CALL A PROFESSIONAL!

lol. Yes. Still haven't had a chance to call an exterminator or anything and haven't wanted to risk spraying it randomly with Raid. Gonna pick up some wasp spray tomorrow though.

Interesting ... before you disturb it, contact your local the US Fish and Wildlife or an Entomology department at a local university (many of them have field offices). You don't want to bother it if its endangered, they can probably move it or tell you how to dispose of it.

I once had a bald faced hornets nest in my yard in N GA. Impressive nest, about 18 inches long... like out of cartoon. They are one of the more nasty wasps and not to be messed with, very aggressive and dangerous. They will chase you down if they feel threatened... and you can't outrun them if they are determined to get you.

Whatever it is, it obviously stole the socks off a homeless guy to make that nest from. Caution is the better part of valor.

Wait till night and hit it with your pressure washer from a far enough distance that you can run like hell. Or just remove your BMW from the garage and burn the whole house down, unless it is an automatic and then keep it in the garage while you burn the house down and question your life choices.

just kidding (kind of). Setting up a camera to see if anything nocturnal is flying in and out of it is a pretty good idea.

Same. My friend has never seen anything like it either.

Best to just knock it off the wall with a stick and go in for a closer look. Report back.
