You can get liquid nitrogen at any welding store.

Saven Seven and a tarp. They'll be gone shortly.

But did you light it?

I disagree. My 'do nothing' approach was a result of laziness rather than any thoughtful planning or research. Just ask any woman: nothing more "manly" than laziness.

And sometimes, procrastination pays.

Of course, it helps that I'm not allergic to bee stings and even a yellow jacket is little more annoying than a mosquito bite.

Fire is good. I vote gas. Seems to work.

Seems like a perfect excuse for a DIY flamethrower.

Brake cleaner worked well on the couple nests that they attempted in my and the neighbours shed's. Is there anything it can't do?

Shop vacs work well when the bees are inside walls, along with some bee spray. Fasten the hose near the entrance to the hive and let it run for several hours. Bees leaving and returning get sucked into the vacuum.
