This is a first at my station....  a large Hornet Nest on the end of the
Boom of my lowest Hygain 105CA (5L 10 meter Yagi) on my 100’ Rohn 45 tower.

The nest is located on the underside of the end of the boom (24’ long) and
1st director, which puts the nest about 12‘ from the center of the tower
and 23’ above ground.

Does anyone have any experience successfully dealing with this situation?
I would appreciate learning how you killed the hornets and got rid of the
nest without getting hurt or doing anything dangerous.

Tnx & 73
