We had some surprise guests show up just before I began filming a camping trip, so we are slightly delayed for this week's camping Thursday, however, I figured I would post a bit of the struggle to get rid of these pesky guys. The home is half-built and has had a bit of a building envelope issue for several years before we bought it. We have got a crew working on sealing it up right now but we got started a day after all the insects showed up sadly. Anyways, there will be the regular camping video coming shortly as I will film that tonight or tomorrow now that we have the wasp issue delt with.
Cheers everyone!

Next time you have a wasp problem, use soapy water to kill these. It works much better and isn’t toxic.

Great vid Steve. What was the thermacell product you used for wasps on the inside? I've never seen anything that took them out like that. We had a wasp problem last Spring and I want to avoid that issue this year. Thanks for the great ideas.

One thing I've learned about spraying wasps, hornets, and bees is that it's wiser to wait til dusk or after to spray their nests, because that's when they're asleep. I've sprayed a number of nests at night over the years, and I've never gotten stung once from it. : )

I can picture a few apple trees there:) beautiful spot steve.

Dawn dish soap mixed with warm water in a pump sprayer will kills wasps really well. Stops them dead in their tracks.

At first I thought you had some really cool, earthy background music playing,... a few minutes later, I realize it's the birds chattering and singing! Great video Steve! Can we have a 2021 update to check out your progress?? Stay safe and hunker down friend! 👍
David Flynn
loving the birds singing.

It's not the camping that makes a camping with Steve video, but the STEP2.

When ever you fit a ceiling even on to a flat roof building, always make a little trap door in the ceiling... even if the cavity between the roof and ceiling is small. It allows you to quickly treat swarms of whatever that may want to nest in a ceiling. Here in Africa, bees can cause you nightmares and if you cant smoke them out... months of problems!

I’m dying for an updated tour of this place.

Hey Gail! I'll see what we can do when we get back there. Cheers!!!

There is a point at 2:45 where the wind picks up and I thought it was the wasps and thought Aw, Hell No.

Even when you are not camping it is still another great video!!! Thank you Steve!!!

So what if its a total tear down! Let him for what he wants its his property just don't get sick! In the USA it would be considered condemned property and no one could enter there'd also be a dozer scheduled but you can still save the beautiful tubs, sinks, windows and other beautiful usable fixtures, yard sell it all, then doze it, have a yurt or boxable house installed for living and then you won't have to worry and can focus on channel...

hey steve..just found your 2nd channel...keep poppin out that content bro!!

is that a Mockingjay singing in the background?

Those look like bees to me. A hive was migrating. Call a bee keeper to get the queen and the rest will follow.

I would buy every single can of that wasp killer that could be found in Edmonton & in Alberta!!! And, maybe use a generator to pump that stuff in!!! Less is definitely not more!

Might be a good time to start a new channel for your house and property. You could do it at your leisure and use the money to help pay for repairs. Most of us would of course subscribe to that channel also just because we love you and your family (Beautiful wife, Crazy Neighbour, Crazy Uncle Bob etc.). Maybe this is a bad idea, I dont know but it's only an idea 😁♥️ Talk it over with the family!😂👍

Car pulls up start thinking things are really getting serious with the wasp LMAO.
none thanks
is it time to change from a fixer upper to a burner downer?
EdwardHensen
I used to have to take out wasp nests when i was a cable splicer up in a 28ft lader. Those sprays are surprisingly effective, no need to worry Steve.

So why not keep the Earth ship idea? If you do it correctly (arizona offers plans for free i think to most anyone) you have a near maintenance free, off grid, passive solar home. I would pay mucho dinero to have access to an earth ship home, pls look into it before you make the structure 'traditional'. Cheers!!

i heard burning a dead human corpse near the nest gets rid of wasps and hornets...but for some reason attracts bees...go figure🤷♂️
David Mack
Steve,
a less poisonous method for irradication of wasp. Hang baloney on toothpick centered on string hang over container of water surface tension. Add a couple drops of dishwashing detergent. Wasp eat until they fall in water sink and drown put baloney close enough to get in irradic flight path snd you get some random flight peripheral wasp in water to meet same end. This is very effective near home or in camps.

at the very least, cut down the weeds around your property.

Whew, that was a LOT easier than I expected...

That dinging noise started just as he started spraying.
It sounds like the scoring on a video game for all the mob kills.

Kristina Grabowski
As much as I love your camping videos(obviously), I really enjoy any house update/house improvement videos you’re willing to show. Our goal within the next couple years is to stop renting and own some property with acreage and get away from city life. Ive Loved living in San Diego but we are SO sick of the cost of living and congestion. Crappy tiny condos are $450k and up so no one can buy anything. Being from NYC originally, I’ve always thought of myself as a city person who happens to love the outdoors but I’m beyond ready for more rural living
Jordan Nort
Hey Steve if you can’t beat them step 2 join them 🍺cheers
Francis
Hey Steve, if you don't clear those wasps out once they are dead other pests move in and eat them. Makes the problem a lot worse. FYI
Katherine Nicholas
Had to deal with a bee's nest on my own this weekend. Read a few articles...all of which said "do not spray on a ladder. Call a professional." Lol. Hope you get rid of them!
C&M ADK
I'm surprised at all the tear it down comments. It seems solid, sure it needs work it sounds like he got it for a great price. Keep at man, better than paying rent.

There are some comments down thread about a container house(or multiples) that’s actually not a bad idea. The straw wall insulation will forever be a problem. Might be worth a good YouTube series. Step 1 get a cheap used container. Step 2 ... well you know...

No good Really
Once they die in the ceiling how are you planning on getting the dead ones out of the ceiling

Once it’s all done your property will bring you peace and joy! It’s nice to live out in the country!

Living on a farm, we get at least one wasp nest every summer. That spray that shoots a distance is the BEST for sure, but I always do it at sunset when the wasps all go back into their nests.

When things aren’t going your way, just remember what our old friend John Prine said,
“That’s the way that the world goes round,
You’re up one day, the next you’re down,
It’s a happy enchilada, you think you’re gonna drown.
That’s the way that the world goes round”.
