umm... isn't that the point of allergy shots
But yeah, I generally don't mind bees all that much, but that many of them would be really creepy. In 5th grade, there was one of the underground nests, and someone I knew stepped on it and kept his foot there for like 5 minutes... those bees (yellowjackets? wasps? I can't remember...) were not happy...

If a person is allergic, just 5 bees could send them into anaphylactic, which could lead to death if not treated quickly. Some carry an epinephrine quick syringe just in case.

I hope that your fellow student was wearing a shoe. If they were yellow jackets they would have taught him a lesson.

Yikes, that's like something out of a horror movie, and sounds like it might be even worse than the bee stories posted here a little while ago. Gives me the willies just thinking about it.

I've been attacked by a small swarm of yellowjackets for absolutely no reason before (bees, I don't mind; wasps, they're just plain mean), but I was only stung a half dozen or so times.

Gotta say, though, my personal biggest creep-out are those giant wasps they have in Japan--saw one in person once, and the thing was like two inches long. Still makes me shudder just thinking about that monstrosity.

2 cans of Triflouroethane (TFE or DFE) aka canned air. Flip it upside down, spray into the entrance. That should freeze enough of them to block escape, then you pump the other can in, light it, and watch all the oxygen get sucked out.

axe and a zippo.
