Making Traps For Things That Sting | The Boonies

high above the grid in Washington doc
and jeanny Leverett are building an
elevated bathroom to avoid contact with
bears in the area that it got her but in
the remote wilderness of onion creek
it’s not just bears that the leverett’s
have to contend with a day doesn’t go by
there I’m not stung at least twice you
can see I got a bad little Hornet
problem here and wasps when you get
stung by one of these it’s like getting
injected with fire even if you don’t
have allergies you get stung enough and
it can be life-threatening
I’m fine everywhere we have had an
infestation so I got a way of taking
care of him take a water bottle cut it
off you run the funnel turn it back over
get some tape it doesn’t matter what
kind of tape something that’ll stay
stuck in if it gets wet but I’m just
running a ring a tape around here you’re
gonna seal this up here and just folder
over let’s just prevent any escapees and
what I like to do is a safe room morning
coffee get a little bit of leftovers put
a little extra dose of sugar in it this
right here’s a half a cup of coffee two
or three teaspoons of sugar you can see
they’re already trying to get in there
and then I fill my trap and just a
little bit in the bottom there you see
here it makes a whole kind of like it’s
their their hornet’s nest and they’re
attracted to the sugar and the coffee in
here but when they’re get in here the
hole is suspended and they’re too dumb
to know to fly right back up the hole
and they try to come up the edges and
pretty soon they expire just get it
someplace out of the way and leave this
out for about an hour or so a little bit
of trash turned into a convenient way to
get rid of these little suckers
