Pressure washing just got easier!

[rustoffa]

I'm pretty sure this technology has been available for awhile, but I had never seen such shit before this morning. I went to rent a pressure washer, and the fucker behind the counter suggested one of these things.

"Time Saver" is one way to summarize this marvel of engineering. It has opposing high-pressure spigots that rotate underneath the fucking thing....forget all about blasting shit with a stupid wand! That's right...20 yards of driveway turns into pushing a vacuum...just easy as hell. Be careful though...you have to hover the fucking thing into the yard a bit to get cuntplete coverage. Right about halfway down the driveway, I blasted the shit out of a yellow jacket nest...It must have been right on the edge of the concrete...I thought fire ants were biting me until I noticed the dog snapping at the air, and spinning in circles. Holy fucking shit...I got stung into Benadryl hell! Anyway, if you need to do some serious pressure washing, pay the extra dollars for one of those.
:rockit:

Those goddam fucking yellowjackets suck fucking ass!!!
:mad:

The only way I know I have run over a nest with my lawnmower is when it is too late and I am being stung.

Very occasionally I will spot a nest when I am just wandering around my property....and then commences the genocidal death of them.

My fave? Gasoline and matches. WOOHOO!!

DIE FUCKERS DIE!!!!

Surprised the little bastards built a nest right next to the driveway. Usually they go for a more "secure" location.

My dad ran into a nest of those SOB's a few years back when he was helping to put out a small forest fire across the street. Obviously the fire got the little bastards more pissed off than usual, and they took it out on him!

He ran home and jumped in the shower with fucking bees still in his hair. I'm allergic to bees myself, but apparently it comes from my mom's side of the family or else dad would have been dead then. I think he got stung about 100 times or so.

I'd rather get stung by a yellowjacket than bitten by the goddamn fire ants down here in 'Bama. If you accidentally stick a hand or foot in their nest, any get more than three or four bites, and your whole limb goes numb from the toxins. They are nasty little buggers. Yellowjackets got nothing on them.

[Take 'Em]

Pick up a can of "Gun Scrubber" spray from your local sporting goods store.

Will kill them on contact and costs less than any pesticide.......


Makes em dead & yellow............
:cool:

I noticed some brown wasps near the Camelia earlier today..unfuckingbelievable. The sustained windspeed was like 25MPH...gusting to 50! What in the fuck are they doing flying around in shit like that? One thing's for sure, they need to die before they sting me, the dog, or the flying squirrels. I'm guessing they're centralizing their efforts near the pump house by the Camelia. Tomorrow afternoon, I'm gonna put a propane grill tank inside of the pump house, and shoot it with a 16-gauge slug....BROWNING style!!!

Yellow jackets and wasps are normally more agressive in the fall right before they have to go into the hive and hibernate. The weird fucking weather all over the country is probably fucking with their heads big time. They probably don't know WHAT season it is anymore.

I own a pressure washing supply company. Those concrete cleaners have been out for yrs. now. That one is more of a hover cleaner, more work than it should be. The ones i sell come with wheels and looks more like a lawnmower. They are very nice, if you are in the buisness and have alot of concrete accounts.

[Hardrock69]

The bees, wasps etc. are mopre agressive in late summer and fall because that is when it is hottest.

Notice you do not see them when it is cold out.
:D

They higher the temperature, the more agressive those bastards are.

I have a large field below my house that I mow all the time. They occasionally build underground nests, and when I discover them, I will just dump gasoline in and surrounding the hole in the ground, and create genocidal Hell on Earth for them. It is fun to see the ones just above the ground when the flames go FOOM!...they catch fire and crash and burn like a mini-plane being shot down...

Fuckers.

Being in the middle of the forest, there is no telling when I will run into them either.

Also have to deal with ticks and chiggers and stuff.

Argh.
:mad:

Almost as bad as what i did 2 summers ago. i took one of those Water Cannons (my kids) pumped it up and let go a blast about the size of a Half Dollar into a hive ( they were ruining our party) that they made in the lower part of our roof....never let your drunken friends talk you into shit... FIRE ONE i yell out with my fuckin safety goggles on (so i would not get stung in my eyes) What a drunk, whoosh the fucker came down in pieces and the fuckin bees stung the shit outta me and the rest of the drunk SWAT team.:rolleyes:

One morning I was out using the weedeater in the back yard when all of the sudden I was under attack at the ankles. BAM right ankle...BAM BAM, left ankle...mass pain :eek: and anger :mad:...
I look down to see I had disturbed the hole the little yellow bastards were coming out of, and more began to pour out.
Angry, in pain, and like a fool I felt if I kept the weedeater running at full power right over the hole their little arses would shred on the way out: WRONG! Some how they continued to make it through the gauntlet and attack me. (This all went down in less than 30 seconds and included nine stings in all to legs, torso and neck.)

I hate to fight, but I also hate to lose a battle that can be won. I lost that round big time, so with my tail tucked between my legs I ran for the garage and my emergency fishing-trip pack that contained a sterno can. After putting on a few layers of clothing I went back to the hole and filled it as much as possible with the sterno, lit it and napalmed the litte attackers.
I'll never know if they escaped through another exit, but I do know those tiny yellow jackets kicked my 6'1" 190lb ass all over that yard that morning.

RESPECT... little warriors :wow:

PS Cool pressure washing tool. Don't trust your deck wood to it. Take my advice and use your wand on the deck if you have little experience cleaning wood.;)

I had a BBQ once and noticed wasps working on the start of their nest up by my roof. The hive was about 5x the size in a few hours. My friend's an exterminator and got rid of it for me but told me they might come back next year. Sure enough they did. I've only been stung once in my life when I was like 10. I'm allergic to raw fruits so I don't know what a fuckin sting would do to me these days.

very nice.

Twice I've been brutally attacked by those bastards. Both times I was just wandering around not looking down and then.... BAM! 10 of them on my foot digging in. And they leave huge nasty boils!

That was ill advised on their part. The blood feud I now have with their race will result in countless thousands of casualties on their side.

Man they are some mean little bastards.
