About hornets! my Son had a Willys pickup behind the barn. He sold it
so we was going to pull it up to the road with the tractor. I backed up and
hooked the chain to the bumper, out of the grill came an hornet swarm, i ran
away but one got me in the arm. they flew around the tracktor for a long time
when it had settled down i took a long pole and whacked the nest down.
Later that night i pulled it up to the road. When i unhooked the chain they where
still behind the grill no one got me that time but they where swarming the Willys
Then along the road came this couple riding bicycles......
I can tell you
we heard when the hornets got them.
Another time me and dad was in nortern Finland where the Germans retreated during
the Lapland war. In the late 70s you still saw the tank tracks,trenches, blown up bunkers
and foxholes,It was a lot of artefact's left, a lot of tincans i lifted one that said 1939 on the bottom.
Wasps or hornets or whatever started to fly around me. I thought i had stepped on a nest so i run with the can
in my hand, but it got more and more fliers until i realiced the nest was in the can
