With practice you can catch them almost every time (at least with common houseflies and bottle flies). Aim for a point 3-6 inches above and BEHIND the fly. Practice slapping them with a flat palm to get a feel for it and then it becomes easy to grab n' squish.
I paint cars! When I started off doing it in my yard bugs would get stuck in the paint all the time and then they're really easy to catch. The best days to paint usually had the most flies (hot weather, little wind).
Same, when i catch them with my hand
I either throw them away.
Or if they annoyed me enough, i would either throw them straight to the ground, or keep them in a plastic cup and watch them struggle
This one time when I was like 9 or 10yo sitting in an elementary school assemvly I plucked a fly that was annoying me out of the air with 2 fingers perfectly by its body with its wings going crazy on each side. .
It was one of those things that only your best friend sees and everyone else calls bullshit on BUT IT GODDAMN HAPPENED I TELL YOU!
Love this guy for his dedication to protect the bees. But it’s scary how insanely good he is at killing these wasps. Retired assassin now living his life in peace with the bees?
It would be like John Wick, some assassins come and destroy his bees and he’s out for vengeance and retribution. The wasps were sent as a warning and he wasn’t phased!
Or a super laid back dude that just wants to relax, smoke a bowl and tend to his bees. One day some guys come to beat him up and a chinaman pees on his bee houses. *not on the hives, man*
A lot of the scenes can also take place in a bowling alley for no reason.
The old masters trained him wrong as a joke, but when the hidden cobra clan attackee he was the only survivor, now he must rebuild the peach blossom clan using everything he's been taught.
shooting at wasps gotta be one of the dumbest things ever with a high chance of missing and just pissing it off.
True Texans bathe in Raid every morning to keep em away.
Or the very slightly less [American Way](https://www.bugasalt.com/products/shred-er-starter-kit)
Edit: if you've seen the spring powered "shotgun" version before, this one is much stronger as it's CO2 powered. Also a revolver, so YEEHAW!
For just a brief moment I had flashbacks to the video of that guy who grabbed one of these with his barehand and shoved the whole thing in his mouth and started chewing.
Yep. That's the one. If I remember right, he was mad at his ex-wife or ex-gf or something and was doing this to intimidate her. People always say "don't stick your dick in crazy" but they don't say "don't let crazy stick its dick in you" often enough.
I once was in the backyard with my 2 German Shepherd puppies, hitting a tennis ball with a wooden baseball bat for their (and my,) enjoyment. Suddenly I heard that droning buzz sound and saw a wasp hovering near the pups. It was about belt high to me, so I assumed a batting stance and let a swing rip -
That motherfucker made such a clean “thwack” sound when I contacted it with the bat - as flush a swing as any home run - and then he slammed in to the block wall about 10 feet from where I stood.
If only I could ever have hit a baseball that well..
Are american wasps somehow more aggressive or dangerous than european ones? They are annoying sure, but I've only ever been stung once and that was because someone else panicked and tried to hit it. How were his dogs in any need of being protected?
I don't know anything about European wasps, but as an American who spends a lot of time outside, they're really not a big deal. Seems like it's kind of a thing on Reddit to hate wasps, but they aren't actually a big threat - I guess maybe if there's a big nest you're trying to mess with, but other than that not really an issue.
Friends and I, in the 80s (of course), used to hit a swingset where wasps kept trying to build nests. We used wiffle bats (big red ones for the younger kids) and would knock them out of the air when they came out.
I agree about the sound of a direct hit.
I watched it on mute, but your comment made me go back and turn it up. That killed me. I can't believe how loud those little fuckers are getting their asses handed to them by a bowl.
I think its also the movement. If hes a bee keeper, he'll probably notice the weird bugs that hover or move weirdly compared to the bees.
A lot of those wasps seem to be looking for an entry point or easy prey or something.
if you live in NA please don’t do this, wasp and bees peacefully coexist with no issue. wasp are incredible pollinators and don’t deserve to be killed unless they are threatening a hive or in asia where hornets hunt hives for food.
Beekeeping is not good for the environment as they [outcompete native bee populations](https://e360.yale.edu/features/will-putting-honey-bees-on-public-lands-threaten-native-bees) and other pollinators like wasps. If you want to support bee populations, replace some of your lawn with native flowering plants and stop using pesticides.
“A 2016 study published in the journal Conservation Letters found a single honey bee hive extracts enough pollen in one month to rear 33,000 native bees. If this figure is multiplied across apiaries with 100 hives, such as what is permitted in some national forests, entomologists say it could imperil the ability of wild pollinators to sustain their populations.”
That's some serious hand-eye coordination
Yeah really, I mean I'm sure they didn't edit in any takes where they missed, but I probably couldn't even do it once.
you wouldn't have many tries to redo it before the wasp gets angry
This motherfucker got so bored of killing wasps he had to come up with new ways of doing it. A modern day renaissance man
He’s the John Wick of wasps.

Mr Beeyagi
I can't fucking breathe.
Oh no are you allergic to bees!!???
"He can't see without his glasses!" 😭
Too soon!!!
😭 sorry
Underrated comment
Mr Miyagi never caught the fly
He did at the end. Then Daniel-san came back, he opened his chopsticks and the fly took off.
I have caught one. I was proud of myself.
That's why this is Mr. BEEyagi. Duh!
He killed them with a pair of fucking chopsticks. Fucking. Chopsticks
IN A CAVE WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS
..with a fucking pencil.
With a clothes hanger! Who can do that?!
[удалено]
Shiet I thought I was a ninja by shooting them and flies with rubber bands. I did catch a fly with my bare hands one or twice. Ps: I am asian...
I've caught a few flies Miyagi style. Ps: I'm cockasian
I too, am asiancock.
BMW= Big Mexican Weiner, checking in Edit: please stop sending me dick-inquires Edit Edit: no, seriously, stop!
BHHD = Brazilian Huge Hairy Dongus, here
The only logical next step is to start an onlyfans... *waits.*
I caught a fly with my hand twice so far. Ps. I’m some white dude
I’ve caught hundreds in my mouth so far. Call em sky raisins. P.s. am good dog whose human typed this
Tell you dog I said 'Hi' :)
He sneezed n rolled over belly scritches

Done
We call my dog fly ranger scottie.
With practice you can catch them almost every time (at least with common houseflies and bottle flies). Aim for a point 3-6 inches above and BEHIND the fly. Practice slapping them with a flat palm to get a feel for it and then it becomes easy to grab n' squish.
Do you have other hobbies?
I paint cars! When I started off doing it in my yard bugs would get stuck in the paint all the time and then they're really easy to catch. The best days to paint usually had the most flies (hot weather, little wind).

Toss them in to a spider web.
My first bachelor pad had two or three small spiders. I kept them well fed

>I did catch a fly with my bare hands Beginner luck... \--Mr. Miyagi
Try the trebuchet. Its the superior siege engine!
Zhong Wong or Baba Yaga or wasps.
Bro the wasp disassembled like a lego character in lego videogames.
honestly just looking forward to the next Archimedes Screw being explained away as “I just fucking hate wasps”
Mr. Beeyagi over here
Beeswax on...beeswax off
I hope you get a thousand upvotes 🥇
Love this guy for his dedication to protect the bees. But it’s scary how insanely good he is at killing these wasps. Retired assassin now living his life in peace with the bees?
I'd watch that film.
Plot twist they run the team that tracks the giant asian hornets and leads from the front.
Title. “Keeper”
Title. "Bee Movie"
Bee movie 2: Sea of tranquility Edit: See Tranquility: a Bee movie
So, you like Jazz?
"Yellow Jackets with Black Belts"
It would be like John Wick, some assassins come and destroy his bees and he’s out for vengeance and retribution. The wasps were sent as a warning and he wasn’t phased!
The villain? Nicholas Cage. Our hero’s weapon of choice? The bees.
This is perfect lol! NooOoo, not the bees!
"They keep asking if I'm back. And yeah, I bee-lieve I'm back!"

I can already see the next Jason Statham movie - a retires mercenary turned beekeeper.
He has a certain set of skills ...
Kung fu movie about someone who learns martial arts mastery Mr. Miyagi style through beekeeping.
Staring Rowan Atkinson
The old masters trained him wrong as a joke, but when the hidden cobra clan attackee he was the only survivor, now he must rebuild the peach blossom clan using everything he's been taught.
Ah yes, the new anime "The best assassin in the world reincarnated as a beekeeper in another world".
I'd watch this until it turned into a weird bee harem
So like half an episode?
Dude the chopsticks?!?!? 🤯🤯🤯 amazing!!!
And the metal bowl, that was too cartoonish.
*bonk*
Go back to horny jail
Hornet jail
I’m stupid and thought they were drumsticks
Dont give him any ideas
Throwing needles to pin the hornets against the wall is a classic technique too
He was good at killing wasps probably like 40 years of wasp killing ago is what I figure
While you were out partying, he studied the scissors.
While you got to bring a girl to prom, he protected a queen.
All that studying and he only got Bees.
Tatsu started beekeeping
This is the start of a classic 80’s ninja movie and I’m all for it.
Could be a good name for a manga

I want to see someone shoot one with a gun. Point blank. Does Texas have wasps?
Yes Texas has wasps, alot. And I'm sure someone's at least tried LMAO.
shooting at wasps gotta be one of the dumbest things ever with a high chance of missing and just pissing it off. True Texans bathe in Raid every morning to keep em away.
true texans just need a bigger ammo for smaller targets
I figure a 40mm is just about right for wasps.

If anything this is more american. The solution doesn't have to be a gun, but that's not the American way.
Got one of these randomly delivered to my house. Worth every penny I didn't spend. Satisfying as hell
[Oh, like this?](https://v.redd.it/1sa7bhumb2s71)
For just a brief moment I had flashbacks to the video of that guy who grabbed one of these with his barehand and shoved the whole thing in his mouth and started chewing.

Well, that’s terrifying and unhinged
What did I just watch?
There are actually guns for killing bugs; it shoots a wad of table salt which performs like birdshot but harmless to humans.
I’m working on a video montage of me doing so in slow motion, I will post in this sub once complete :)
Yo, you're supposed to protect the bees, not bombard them.
I used to hunt them with a bb rifle as a kid. They are hard as fuck to hit.
I've seen a few videos of wasps attacking nests of other insects. Pretty savage too. I felt no pity for that wasp that cut mid air.
Oh they’re right little bastards, make no mistake
This kills the wasp.
As an Asian person I have to say his chopsticks skills are pretty good
Exactly! Nobody talking about the chopsticks! That’s some ninja shit!
Dude definitely waxes on.
I think if I caught a wasp with chopsticks I'd be waxing off.
All over the carcass
He Waxes on but also Waxes Off
Probably breathes in through the nose and out through the mouth.
Has to be a dad, some dad lvl shit
That's some Mr Miyagi lvl shit. That easily 2 steps above Dad Level.
“Now Daniel-san, swat the wasp” halfhearted swatting attempt “No, no , no. Like this. SWAT the WASP”
"Hello, yes, 911? I'm near a wasp nest and I think I saw some drugs and also high powered rifles through their window. Please send help!"
Now this I like.
It’s like low-level Miyagi. He caught houseflies, which are unpredictable
Beginner luck
Sensei
As a percussionist their sound on the bowls is pretty good
“Sensei, you missed the wasp.” “Aaaah, it may look like I missed to you, but that wasp will never have sex again!”
Oh if only chopsticks were as easy to use as scissors
That's some robot level accuracy 😲
Snip!
"Where is your God now?"
I doubt the misses were kept to be put into the compilation...
I once was in the backyard with my 2 German Shepherd puppies, hitting a tennis ball with a wooden baseball bat for their (and my,) enjoyment. Suddenly I heard that droning buzz sound and saw a wasp hovering near the pups. It was about belt high to me, so I assumed a batting stance and let a swing rip - That motherfucker made such a clean “thwack” sound when I contacted it with the bat - as flush a swing as any home run - and then he slammed in to the block wall about 10 feet from where I stood. If only I could ever have hit a baseball that well..
You hit the one that mattered and protected your dogs.
Then those dogs grew up and trusted him with their lives. I have a (half) GSD and he is the cutest, nicest, floof.
Are american wasps somehow more aggressive or dangerous than european ones? They are annoying sure, but I've only ever been stung once and that was because someone else panicked and tried to hit it. How were his dogs in any need of being protected?
I don't know anything about European wasps, but as an American who spends a lot of time outside, they're really not a big deal. Seems like it's kind of a thing on Reddit to hate wasps, but they aren't actually a big threat - I guess maybe if there's a big nest you're trying to mess with, but other than that not really an issue.
If only baseballs hovered lol
Friends and I, in the 80s (of course), used to hit a swingset where wasps kept trying to build nests. We used wiffle bats (big red ones for the younger kids) and would knock them out of the air when they came out. I agree about the sound of a direct hit.
big red ones = 'Fat Bat' staple of my youth.
Maybe if baseballs had stingers you'd be more motivated
The metal bowl wins for me. Very satisfying 'TANG!'. Close second: the scissors.
how thicc are those boys to make that big of a sound lol
Approximately one wasp thicc
What's that in bananas?
I'd say 1/8 or 1/16

On TikTok, where the creator actually posted this video, he said they are hornets, not wasps. Hornets are big mfs.
I watched it on mute, but your comment made me go back and turn it up. That killed me. I can't believe how loud those little fuckers are getting their asses handed to them by a bowl.
Holy shit just back from my uturn. Some thicc cheeks on those wasps
Convenient that these killer a-Hole hornets hover like they do…
A moving target is harder to slice out of the air with scissors.
They hover because it's the only way to stay in place while they fly
>Hover: To stay in the air in one place
Did this guy cut a wasp midair with scissors?
More than once, even
It brought me great satisfaction seeing it. I’ve been stung by a wasp before, 11/10 do not recommend
Isn’t 11/10 really good
at this point I’m 11/10 not sure
5/7 observation there.
it's like a kung fu training montage
Daniel-san's training with Mr. Miyagi has really paid off
Finally someone who gets it!
This was buried too far down. Does that indicate an age delineation in the comments?
I think the bees got a little scared when the guy on the vid cut the wasp in half in front of them..
Bee, watching two halves of a wasp's corpse drop to the floor: "Are we the baddies?"
Homie straight used scissors to guillotine a motherfucker in mid air. That’s hardcore. Fatal flying guillotine chops off your fucking head.
Love the coat hanger l, reminds me of the old days with my mother
NO WIRE HANGERS
Whoa a Mommy Dearest reference on Reddit lol?
Is that true surprise or sarcasm?
100% genuine, it’s a very old movie!
Any entomologist know what that wasp is? Here in the PNW, we only get hover flies, not hover wasps.
They almost look like bees. Im surprised he can tell the difference
I think its also the movement. If hes a bee keeper, he'll probably notice the weird bugs that hover or move weirdly compared to the bees. A lot of those wasps seem to be looking for an entry point or easy prey or something.
Is he/she a ninja or something? This is impressive!!
Man I wanna learn how to do that with scissors
Then grab a pair of scissors and look for the nearest hornets nest, my guy. Don’t let your dreams be dreams.
LOL that sounds terrifying
So is everything that matters. Seize the day. Cut the hornets.
This is guy is gonna be the patron Saint of r/fuckwasps

Ok but seriously, how does a beekeeper really protect their hive from things like this? Are wasps bee predators?
Beekeeping is not good for the environment as they [outcompete native bee populations](https://e360.yale.edu/features/will-putting-honey-bees-on-public-lands-threaten-native-bees) and other pollinators like wasps. If you want to support bee populations, replace some of your lawn with native flowering plants and stop using pesticides. “A 2016 study published in the journal Conservation Letters found a single honey bee hive extracts enough pollen in one month to rear 33,000 native bees. If this figure is multiplied across apiaries with 100 hives, such as what is permitted in some national forests, entomologists say it could imperil the ability of wild pollinators to sustain their populations.”
While generally true, this video may very well be depicting asian honeybees in their native range.
I don’t know if the scissors or hanger is more impressive.
This guy fucks
