Two weeks after the
deer fly attack, I am still wary of using the hose reel that was the scene of the crime. This piece of equipment has been useful for many years, up until now.

Here is the villain, looking out of its residence in a small hole in the hose reel. I'm hoping there isn't a little family developing in there. Still plotting how to foil the deer fly long enough to detach the hose so I can get rid of the hose reel.

ReplyDeleteYou have located the nest. You can purchase an insect spray where you can stand a distance away and saturate the area. Then you can clean the area to get rid of any spray residue. I once had a wasp's nest which I got rid of in that way.
