There's been a few posts here about hornets lately and today I happened to look up at one of the tool sheds, and holy cow that nest was about as big as a bowling ball hanging down. They must put them things up quick. I never noticed it before and am sure I've looked up recently and all and it wasn't there until I looked up today. It was active too. I drug out a hose and left it coiled up around the corner and after the dogs were out for the last time around 11:00 or so when it was dark, I turned off the night lights on the poles and barns, stood around the corner and sprayed up at it tearing it up I know, but didn't drop it from what I could see in the pitch black of night. Used a spot light from the house a couple hundred feet away and could see was pretty tore up. Got up to use the bathroom about 3:00, put on shorts and boots and went out and gave it some more and could see in the dark a big wad fall down, but still could see some of the nest still up there. Won't know until daylight if the wad was the comb, a wad of hornets, or both. But didn't play around. Shut the hose off, and back up to the house. Anyone know? Hornets can see at night or not?
