Seems like this would be a terrible idea when dealing with a nest near your gas tank.

The tank should still be sealed airtight to keep fuel vapor from escaping for emission reasons. Spray away.

Drive around a bit. Come home. Get a good wasp spray and make a funnel larger than the cavity of the filler section. Seal funnel to bodywork, spray through the hole and plug it. No mess, no fuss, no angry bastards coming at you.

KernelSlanders posted:But why? Most of the osha poo poo seems to be because people are too lazy to do it safely. This guy had to lift the kid up there. It's actually a lot safer than what about 100% of people would have done, i.e. just holding the baby aloft so it could see whatever boring poo poo they're looking at.

Nocheez posted:I didn't notice a wasps nest near my home when I was sweeping the side walkway, and I accidentally hit it with the broom. I was immediately surrounded and stung around 10 times. My arm swelled up horribly and it hurt almost as bad as when I've broken bones. F- - - - would not do again. Wasp and bee stings are weird. As long as you're not allergic, you can become immune to the toxin. My grandfather kept bees when I was a kid and we lived with him. I've been stung by bees and wasps an inordinate amount of times. To me, a wasp hurts no more than a pin prick and I don't even have any swelling. A horsefly hurts way more in my opinion. A little baking soda paste and the welt will be gone in an hour. The nice thing is that bee and wasp stings are good for your immune system. It's like a workout. To be fair, the first few dozen stings I had hurt like death. After that, it kind of went away. It's different for everyone though. I have a friend who has tremendous pain from getting stung. It's like you describe. Like a broken bone. My cousin is allergic to bees/wasps. If he gets stung, he dies. I have a co-worker that is the same. mostlygray fucked around with this message at 13:24 on Dec 22, 2016 |

I'm sure the mechanism is different but I had a similar thing with mosquito bites as a younger lad. If I got bit enough during the summer (and I was pretty good about ignoring the itch) eventually a new bite would just be a little harmless bump.

zedprime posted:It seems like a fun fact sort of thing about the mechanism of the usual pesticide in the spray which turns all their nerves on maximum firing. If its 47kvolt it's a very boring biological 47kvolt. Some random reddit dude had this to say about wasp spray: quote:My understanding is that most sprays contain a chemical which deactivates an enzyme in the synapse (gap) between nerve cells which usually would denature neurotransmitters. In the absence of this enzyme, too many neurotransmitters reach the next nerve cell, meaning that the message being sent is sent too strongly, and so muscles being told to contract will contract with sufficient force that they are paralyzed. Insects breathe through expanding and contracting their abdomens to force air through holes in their abdomen, so when paralyzed, they (as my grade 12 bio teacher once put it) simultaneously have a heart attack, suffocate, and have muscles seizures.  I wonder if they poo poo themselves too with all the muscle contractions going on.

A little baking soda paste and the welt will be gone in an hour. I think another factor at play is if the stinger is stuck. I have been stun many times without major repercussion but once, when I was very young, I stepped on a bee and it was one of the more painful experiences of my life. I wound up going to the hospital after a couple hours because my foot had tripled in size, only to find the stinger was stuck in my skin and had to be extracted.

You do have to make sure the stinger is out. Best to use a fingernail or knife blade and scrape it so you don't inject more of the poison into you. I stepped on a bumblebee once, It was not pleasant.

Crotch Fruit posted:Some random reddit dude had this to say about wasp spray: Probably. The mechanism of action is very similar to how cholinesterase-inhibitor nerve gases work on humans, and one of the immediate signs of poisoning by those compounds is that you start shooting fluids out of everywhere that can produce them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SLUDGE_syndrome In fact, VX and GB (sarin) chemical agents were both developed out of a program that was trying to invent new insecticides. I'm not sure if organophosphorous compounds are still used to kill bugs, but they sure do a good loving job.

Organophosphate poisoning and nerve agents share a page on the CDC websites, so yeah they are that similar. There is some mounting evidence that they have developmental effects on kids that live near fields where they are sprayed, too. All in all, they are pretty toxic to humans and will probably be on the way out sooner or later as insects develop resistance, and less toxic more effective compounds are found.

I still don't understand how this guy walks away from that. It doesn't seem to be angled enough to do what it does, though the camera is uneven, so it has to be just enough. Who knows, maybe it took his ear off, I haven't seen the news story on it.
