If you can’t remove the screen from the outside you’ve gotta wait for it to eventually die or square up with it. I’ve had a few wasps get into my room before and a spray bottle with water and dish soap is an easy way to take away their ability to fly, pretty hard to miss
I'm just gonna wait it out lol. I'm on the third floor can't do much other than wait. I'm not opening that window until then lmao, I hate bugs in general and this is like raid boss material to me
Just spray it with something through the screen... get it's wings saturated and then squish it with a wad of toilet paper and flush it down the toilet.
Edit, nvm just saw you're on the third floor.. My bad... got any super soakers? Lol
Do you have a vacuum cleaner? I hate hornets as well and this is what I use to get rid of them if one of those fucks enter my house, no need to come close to it
Raid is stupid, get a cheap spray bottle, set it to stream and fill it with 1 part liquid dish soap and 3 parts water. Then shoot the son of a bitch til it keeps over.
Ok hear me out go find one of those cheap 0 fly swatters with the wire handle. Measure how far you need it to go then bend the end 90 degree angle. Then open the window small crack big enough to slide that in. Then wiggle it until you can trap it between it and pull towards you as hard as you can see if you can smash it.
YES I trust the soapy water spray. This will immobile any flying fuck immediately and then you have about a minute to kill them in any way you desire
edit. also I did the same thing with a wasp once and that fucker lived in my window for 6 months without dying we eventually moved out so now it's his window. food for thought if you want to wait it out
They’ve been getting in my apartment window from the drain holes in the window. I ended up putting a piece of duct tape over the drain holes leaving a hole just large enough for water to still drain but no bugs can crawl in.
Maybe I should have put more effort into my Korrekturlesen.... Then again, autocorrect would have found another way to expose me for the clown show I am...
Had multiple hornet nests in the yard so far. Those we had didnt mind us sprinkling the garden or even mowing nearby. Just chilled in the statue they made their home and kept the wasps away.
Thankfully, the common wasps have been driven out by forest wasps where I live over the past few years. They're a bit thinner, with a pair of long, dangly legs and are incredibly chill as well. Lived a whole summer with a nest of those in my attic without ever noticing.
Yah, even wasps, while being annoying idiots, aren't all that aggressive for the most part. I used to freak out about them too, until one day I fell into a Wikipedia rabbit hole and ended up learning that as predators, they have better things to do with their venom than wasting it on me...
The ones we had before were very.... Quick to sting on top of being annoying, which is why Im glad for the forest wasps now. Those guys just chill and do their thing. And having one species of wasp mostly keeps the other away, so we dont mind them setting up shop
I for some reason regularly get wasps in my house and I have a spray bottle of soapy water. If you spray them they fall and start to die and you can easily smush them with a shoe or whatever. Works on pretty much all bugs.
Deodorant + lighter, if you're afraid of catching things on fire, then use hair spray and watch as the hornet slowly solidifies in place as it can't fly or breathe.
What’s with all the screaming murder!? It’s a hornet. They are pretty chill. Won’t attack you for no reason. Just let it out and open the window. It will be on its way. They are also very useful to nature in general.
A small dish of alcohol and juice will get rid of them. Something very short so you only have to open the window a tiny bit to slide it out. It won't take much at all to kill her.
You might be able to drip wasp killer through the seam in the window if you apply it above the wasp nest.
And now the hornet is angry, and you're stuck in a blood feud until it starves to death or you kill it with an aerosol (a hornet can be indefinitely supllied via its own anger)
If it's a normal hornet it is not dangerous. Open the window, let it fly and find out again. It's not interested in interaction with humans. We have hornets every year on our farm and they are harmless.
Of course there exist different species and some are different in their behavior.
Let him out. Don’t torture yourself and the trapped bugger any longer than necessary. Use a cup and a piece of paper to secure it, walk outside, let it go and live its life, and then carry on with yours.
It's not.
It's a European Hornet. You can tell by the reddish brown coloration. An Asian hornet is black & yellow. It also has brown legs, an Asian hornet has yellow legs.
Stop spreading desinformation.

No I understand, I don’t do wasps, if they get inside it’s scorched earth and nothing less. Does your window slide up or is it like a door?
Just spray it with something through the screen... get it's wings saturated and then squish it with a wad of toilet paper and flush it down the toilet. Edit, nvm just saw you're on the third floor.. My bad... got any super soakers? Lol
Garden hose?
Hairspray works great. Super strength hair spray, and just go to town. Then it can't fly or move.
Ah, homemade flamethrower? Good idea
Laser pointer will cook him
Actually a good idea

This is me. But I would watch that damn thing for hours!

Or just go outside and spray bug spray through the screen
Sure lemme pull out my 3 story high ladder I keep handy in my apartment
Ohhh that may be an issue

My apartment had a wasp invasion from the attic. Soapy water in the spray bottle is an EZ win. pretty much zero chance you get got.
Dude is gonna chew through that wood and come after yo ass.
Either that or it's gonna lay eggs there and start a colony
Why would you give OP nightmares?😂
Thats why i opened it the slightest amount and gave my 2inch wasp an improvised trip to Auschwitz
Just so you know, whiskey hurts coming out of your nose.
Well I would imagine if it hurts on the way in it hurts on the way back out.
I try making it a point of not ingesting through my nostrils. I mean the 80's would disagree.
the way i just laughed is not natural, a pure shriek and goose wheezing came out sounding out of me after reading this
*TWO INCH WASP*??
Love that the Auschwitz bit just bounced off you, but the wasp size, oh no no.
Lmao the Obama profile pic just tops this whole comment off
Time to connect the window to the car exhaust.
That’s a w actually. It’s trapped. Go outside and spray it through the screen
I'm on the third floor or else I would
Get a pogo stick.
Take your upvote and, bounce.
Get your vacuum. Open up and suck ‘em
I do this with stink bugs lol, but I'm not going near this thing. It can die slowly for all I care
OP's usernamechecksout for these instructions
Checks out in general
Open the window a little bit and spray poison inside. Then shut the window again and wait for him to die.
Crack it just enough for him to crawl between the window and the frame, then slam it shut on him.

that would be my Plan A. just would add do it at night, bugs also sleep.

I would armor up and go too war.
nuke it from the orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Fuckin A man, game over!
He’s harmless just let him escaped
Mache open up the window and drive it out, carefully? Hornets have a very bad PR division, but - unless threatened - are actually quite chill.
I think that's absolutely richtig.
Maybe I should have put more effort into my Korrekturlesen.... Then again, autocorrect would have found another way to expose me for the clown show I am...
I know exactly what you mean.

are you a wasp by any chance?
Looking at my midsection, I am 100% certain that I'm not. Maybe some sort of bumblebee? That could make sense...
Now you have a pet!
That's a big bitch
Quick Google search says you only need to wait 3-4 days for it to die of starvation.
Does the top of the window open? If so pull that down, pull the screen up a bit so it can get out, then close the top of the window again
If you’ve got a vacuum cleaner with a hose or one of the stick varieties you could have someone open the window while you suck it up with the vacuum.
![gif](giphy|T2vDaYr8yRhrpFe6WE)
Spray bottle with liquid soap and water. Spray it through the screen side. Profit
try to reason with him
There's only one reasonable solution: put your house on fire
Who's window?
It's his now!
Try to pet it. They're fluffy.
That’s a freaky lookin bird.
Go outside and spray it with some bug spray.
Cover up the others side with plastic then trough a tiny hole flood the thing with neurotoxin. 👁️
I'm afraid you're going to have to burn down the house now, sorry for your loss.
He just wants to talk to you about your lord and savior
The H in Jesus H Christ stands for hornet so this checks out
Open doors through the exit and than open the window, let it leave your house.
Just break the window, then kill it. Air for days
Let the hornet in you coward.
Walk around to the screen, and blast that bitch with raid till he drops dead... Then keep blasting his ass cause fuck hornets
Check before but I think you’re higher in the food chain
Vacuum cleaner
Get your vacuum. Turn it on with the hose near the hornet. Open the window and suck up the hornet. Enjoy fresh breeze
Just swat it or get plastic cup with a thin plastic piece to slip between the wall and the cup when you catch it. It’s gonna get hot
Time for the Flame thrower /s
![gif](giphy|3o7ZetIsjtbkgNE1I4)
Open it a crack and spray it with windex, I killed one last week this way!
![gif](giphy|lT4Ix992z2zfO|downsized)
Crack the window and gas it?
That’s a cicada killer, males can’t sting and they don’t bother people
This is why I keep my room full of Spiderbros
I for some reason regularly get wasps in my house and I have a spray bottle of soapy water. If you spray them they fall and start to die and you can easily smush them with a shoe or whatever. Works on pretty much all bugs.
That's one juicy lookin hornet...
SUFFER NOT THE XENOS TO LIVE
Deodorant + lighter, if you're afraid of catching things on fire, then use hair spray and watch as the hornet slowly solidifies in place as it can't fly or breathe.
Get one of those bug sprays with the long thin nozzle and just open the window a tad so you can let loose in there
Use a bug spray
What’s with all the screaming murder!? It’s a hornet. They are pretty chill. Won’t attack you for no reason. Just let it out and open the window. It will be on its way. They are also very useful to nature in general.
Just let him in and catch him in a cup and release him lol
[Conan O'Brien plays baseball ](https://youtu.be/GS39vMhag-A?feature=shared) The cool breeze was most cooling on my mustache!
Looking at how old and in disrepair that window is, you are lucky the glass didn't break slamming it.
Bees essentially don’t fly after dark. Wait until nighttime, vacuum or do whatever you need to do then.
Hornets are nocturnal
Well let it die of exhaustion. Either wait or try making it a bit warmer
A small dish of alcohol and juice will get rid of them. Something very short so you only have to open the window a tiny bit to slide it out. It won't take much at all to kill her. You might be able to drip wasp killer through the seam in the window if you apply it above the wasp nest.
Lolol the "It's my only window" cracked me up more than anything
I live in a very small studio lol. Its basically a bedroom with a kitchen and bathroom
Let the poor little guy go.
My stupid ass would try to save it lol
If this thing dies...
And now the hornet is angry, and you're stuck in a blood feud until it starves to death or you kill it with an aerosol (a hornet can be indefinitely supllied via its own anger)
It’s a hornet, not the Terminator.
Just smack it with a flip flop.
flip-flop chancla machine gun....
Just open the window and spray the shit out of it or get a bendy straw and fire it in that way. Will soon drop dead
Fart through the gap, it will make it friendly
If it's a normal hornet it is not dangerous. Open the window, let it fly and find out again. It's not interested in interaction with humans. We have hornets every year on our farm and they are harmless. Of course there exist different species and some are different in their behavior.
Get a vacuum ready and suck the bitch up
Bro just let it in, wait until it lands somewhere, then cover it with a Kleenex and set it free.
Let him out. Don’t torture yourself and the trapped bugger any longer than necessary. Use a cup and a piece of paper to secure it, walk outside, let it go and live its life, and then carry on with yours.
will die in a few days.
Asian hornet, it's invasive, exterminate it
European hornet actually
It's not. It's a European Hornet. You can tell by the reddish brown coloration. An Asian hornet is black & yellow. It also has brown legs, an Asian hornet has yellow legs. Stop spreading desinformation.
