Unwanted Visitor
 

Climbed up to my stand yesterday and noticed a wasp nest hanging on the armrest. Well after I climbed down, I knocked it off with a long limb. Now it seems that they're hiding out under the foam on the armrest. How can I get rid of them? I know gas kills'em on contact, but it's overhead, and I don't want to contaminate the area. Any suggestions?

slinginarrows,here in tx thats a big problem.use a good wasp spray and try to get em under the foam.if your season does'nt start for a while the smell should be gone.i dont think a deer would associate the smell with danger and after a rain it shouldnt present any problems.do it in the mid. of the day as to not spook any animals.

spray em and then tape the sides of the foam down it will keep them from getting back in i take the foam off my stands alot just because of how quickly it deteriorates

thats God's way of telling you to move the stand 70 yards down wind to where that big 180 class 12 pointer has been sneaking around your set up.
