Just because a nest of ground bees isn’t stinging you don’t think they won’t. They may seem docile and carefree but jam the shovel into their hole and they may suddenly change. :doh:

I got a gallon of bleach, I’m going back over right now. They didn’t get me too good maybe 5-6 on my hands and left arm. They routed under a dead shrub and I cut almost the whole thing out without them bothering me too much.

gas is no good…if someone threw a cigerette on the ground I’d be in deep shit.

the bleach probably killed 3/4s of them…some were still around today.

I covered the stump with mulch too. that should do the rest of them in

oh yeah, this is at an office building…all of the above would certainly get me fired 😃
