    I don't care if they are not aggressive. They are huge and terrifying. Only way to kill them is fire. Burn the whole place/house/town/state down. EW! They remind me of the bugs on Fallout...

    I wonder, do they only come out the same 17 or so years that cicadas do?

    Nope they come up every year.

    My chemical attack worked and they are all gone now. 40-50 of them all dead and no more have hatched since. :Thumbsup:
    If anymore show up I have some great knock down spray. :sosp:

    I also filled a hole with Meth and set it on FIRE! YEAH :mad5:

    Drunk bugs....on fire...lol...
    Some regular yard chemicals might be a good idea...
    Remember when folks have lots issues with pests, there is usually a food source....
    An example is if folks have a skunk issue, the solution is to kill the grubs that folks have in a lawn (unless they are only around on trash day)... similarity, I would suggest if you eradicate the bugs in question food source, your lawn won't be a good place to set up their homes.....
    A good broadcast spreader and a broad based bug killer might do the trick....
    Good too hear you killed the infestation, but more will keep moving in if the food is present.

    I don't think Dave NUKED his ENTIRE LAWN....just the nest holes...

    I don't think Dave NUKED his entire LAWN (we all know he does things 110% but i doubt he took a flamethrower to his grass or the town might get involved).....just the nest holes...the bugs that provide the food to more wasp thinggys moving in live in the lawn...kill the food, the WASP-like things will find other places with food...no food...and nothing will want to live there.

    As dry as it's been in some areas.....it would not have been hard...
    Know it was a bit more moist last week when I was down in Intercourse PA area....doing the Amish country thing ......but still... don't think it's been especially wet with been lawns most anywhere in the northeastern US this year....

    Oh it was not my personal lawn I set on fire. :ihih:
    It was my wimpy neighbors because he screamed like a little girl when he was them. He yelled " Kill them with whatever you have to use I don't care!"

    Ok that meant fire was on the list of things to use. Yippie! :mad5::devil:

    I did treat all our lawns with a broadcast spreader with several insecticides and sprayed them with some very strong liquid insecticides.

    For the wimpy neighbors lawn for only one large hole it was triple treated with all the above insecticides and then I added a 1/2 gallon of Meth. (I love fires)

    A little bit of paper towel on a broom handle with a little fuel and I opened the Olympic Games on his front yard. :lol: Poof ..... nice 2-3 foot flame for 10- 15 minutes.

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Sorry, my parents are not cousins, and I graduated HS which in 12th grade in the North not 8th like it is in the South.

    My house does not have wheels and I don't have more dogs than I do rusted out pickups and cars in my yard.

    I know New Jersey is the armpit state under New York and not a separate country.
