Noticed a big hornets nest (the black and white ones- mean as a snake) on the loader frame of an "inoperative" tractor. Called the guy who advertises that he picks up yellowjacket nests for free. He didn't seem too excited about coming out- said a hornets nest has to be really big to have enough hornets to be worthwhile, and that I should wait a couple weeks to see how big it gets, then call him back.
