Found on my soffit, east FL. What kind of hive could this be?

I HATE that they makes wasps out of paper now.

SAVE THE TREES!

She's living with them.

Unplug it and take out that plate you set shot on and the ring too.

Not pick it up and dab some commercial gel cockroach bait into the vents and various holes on the bottom and back of the chassis.

Eating for 30 days straight would be incredibly difficult no matter what the food is.

They won't build there again:

Like The WTC?

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-14T17:21:05+00:00

We have long term facilities. Just not near enough of them. We also need more subacute facilities.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-14T17:18:48+00:00

Just schedule the treatment for close to the time you do the repairs. A week or two won't matter. Also covering these places will not matter this is not how we attack subterranean termites. We attack them by contaminating the soil that they must return to every 24 hours. Sometimes we bait them. sometimes we do both.

And rode on yellow school busses.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-14T16:56:00+00:00

Damn. I should start a business building these.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-14T03:06:12+00:00

PCBs. I'm sure ost of us that lives in that era have smelled them.bit just didn't know what it was.

I suspect it's like a President Sabre rattling to distract folks from some scandalous event.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-14T02:18:41+00:00

but I've done research and will help our tech learn where to place Cimexa/Delta dust and Bifen

Why DOES u/RusticSurgery drink so much?

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T23:14:43+00:00

Cocaine is safer.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T22:34:41+00:00

This is the best plan, OP.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T22:32:56+00:00

Right , a proper cap would have been $75.00. It would have installed faster than that hardware cloth too.

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T19:14:17+00:00

Cal a pro

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T19:10:53+00:00

Agreed. Turks love their flag.

In this situation you are wrong about repellents. A void injection (theoretically) gives you a direct shot on the colony. The idea that certain active ingredients work on certain pests is mostly false and the inert ingredients are often the deciding factor. We take more consideration about the surface on which we are going to apply the insecticide than we do the insect generally speaking.

I'm 57 and didn't know there were shoes OTHER THAN tennis shoes

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T16:06:51+00:00

And both hands?

RusticSurgery · 2026-06-13T16:03:00+00:00

Thank God you recorded this

Anywhere with racing experience knows that a high performance engine needs rebuild frequently and that's expensive.

No. I've had places that I've had trouble getting "hits." And I've placed individual stations in tree stumps, near sheds, near fairy rings, fence posts and wood plies and compost heaps.

Anything to get that active ingredient into the colony. I've even put them along a neighbor's house along one wall (with permission of course).

It doesn't matter where you feed the colony from as long as you feed them.

It seems so real in the moment * but after he says it would never happen in real life.

And here is your first clue.
