So many of these stories are both horrendous and fascinating. The apocalyptic language, regarding evil and seals, was colorfully written, and I enjoyed the humorous story telling. Bravo to the writers.
The wasps in the battery story. All he had to do was connect the terminals to an outlet and the whole thing would have charged, killing the wasps. Even if they weren't connected there would still be enough of a bridge to send a current. (In theory)
On the other hand 'Mutant Acid Soaked Wasps' is now my go to name for a metal band.
The battery would have been ruined either way sooo, why not?
on the other hand "superpowered mutated acid soaked wasps"
The roach shute one made me laugh, very well written lol
Exterminator here, 15 yrs of experience. I had a bunch of cockroach infestation stories like the one told at the begining, one recently. It would be good to have a partner so at least he can stop roaches from crawl or fall down on me from the ceiling. Roaches know nothing about boundaries or personal space.
Diatomaceous Earth will kill ANYTHING exoskeletal. Itâs safe for kids, food, plants & pets. Great stuff, way underrated.
Crabs: well I guess I have bones now

Gotta correct you here! DE is great but itâs far from 100% safe! It is a known respiratory irritant! It can cause lung damage if inhaled so if your going to use it you need to wear respiratory protection. It can set up like concrete in your lungs which is a very bad thing.
Thanks
Not safe to breathe.
I was a dumb kid visiting my grandparents out in the country. Closest neighbors were more than a mile away. A hornet had just stung my little brother, and he ran inside crying. I had just been hunting rabbits that had been devastating my GM's garden. The hornet flew in a figure eight, coming closer. I looked downrange, as I had been taught, aimed, led the hornet by a little, and pressed the trigger. Obviously, I don't know what happened to the hornet. I confessed to my GP that I had missed the last rabbit, then disassembled and cleaned the 12 gauge. Kind of like the Monty Python skit of calling in a nuclear strike on mosquitoes. Even at 10, I knew that my behavior was ridiculous.
There's only one way to deal with hornets and that's shooting them with Dragon's Breathe rounds.
Actually, there are lots of videos of dealing with hornets in trees and other non-human structures. They all involve large amounts of explosives and flammable liquids.
i thought a bazooka would work too
Fire is the best way to kill insects
God, I never thought I'd wish I never heard some stories more than these. The worst I've had is spiders that my boyfriend catches and takes outside. I realized last year that I'm the person who has to take care of mice. My former roommate was too scared to touch them with his hands and didn't think a show box would contain one. I just started picking them up and yeeting them out into the snow, where I assume my froze to death. Then I'd wash my hands with hot water.
We have a cat but she's more in the business of torture than eating. BF and I one saw her smack a mouse so hard we heard the thump as it hit the wall. We haven't had any this winter, so I assume they know the horror that is the cat.
that cat seems more like the problem than solution lol
Well, that enough nightmare material for the night. I have ever seen a roach in real life, and all I can say is I'm glad. And I love when the narrator does weird voices. Funny.
I just took a shower and now I feel like I need another. Or to bathe myself in raid.
You definitely donât live in Texas then! đ I see the big roaches here everywhere during rainy seasons, even outside of new buildings in upscale areas. (Near the coast is the worst)
Another roach story. Went on an EMS run as a firefighter/paramedic in Los Angeles 26 years ago. The roaches peppered every inch of the apartment unit we were called to. The family was sitting on the sofa watching the TV flicking away the bugs crawling around them. You can see some fall from the ceiling. They were everywhere. Grandma, who we were called for, quickly walked towards us from the hallway yelling let's go! She was visiting from out of town and became sick after staying only two days at the apartment. After taking the patient to the hospital, we had to call building and safety. When you respond to a 911 call and see something like this, you have to make some phone calls after the situation you were called for is handled. My skin crawled at least an hour after that run. I will never forget the people sitting on the sofa acting like nothing was going on.
The spiders coming out of the crack probably looked like the scene in Totoro where Mei stuck her finger in a crack and thousands of soot sprites pour out of it
Not an exterminator, but I do have a spider related trauma, this GIGANTIC jumping spider jumped right at my face, and that's why I have serious arachnophobia
Tonight I had a rare encounter with a roach. Well, actually, my cat went into hunting mode, so I turned off most of the lights, lifted the shoe Gillian was stalking, and whacked it. It was no longer a cat toy, so I wiped it up and threw it away, and rewarded her.
I climbed a ladder about 30 feet up in air only to find a huge red wasp nest at the top. Never have I come closer to jumping 30 feet. They tore my ass up before I could climb down.
Fanboy in a gta like game is something I didnât expect today
Why couldnât he drive the stupid bike the right way that jumping makes me dizzy
Bug exterminators, have you heard of a magical item called a flamethrower?
I'd gladly sacrifice my house to the bugs
How to kill anything that swarms. Clothing thick enough for double the average length of a stinger to not reach you and NO GAPS!!
7:58 genuinely screamed "ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID" outload lmao
My cousin and I were trying to clean a tubing pad, like for water tubing. There were some ants on it, and we decided to try to deflate it and sink it. We lifted the flap covering the pump port, only for countless ants to come swarming out. My cousin screamed and ran across the dock while I fell over like a turtle. It was terrifying and hilarious. Lol
I have a fear of wasps, hornets, and bees, though Iâm much less afraid of them as the than the former
If I had to do this Iâd cry-
âBye buttholesâ best quote in the video đđ
Expanding spray foam insulation works well on gaps and cracks that bugs use.
Expanding foam is very sticky, messy, and hard to clean... wear old clothes and place protective covering (old newspaper, trash bags, etc) over nearby carpet, furniture, and valuables.
Walmart carries GE brand expanding foam for app $3.88 per 12oz (340g) can, many places charge $8 - $12 for similar products.
was in DC on an internship. i just got back to my apartment from flying home for thanksgiving. I was about to unpack when i say a 5-10 pound rat in my appt. I grabed my bag and keys and went the 6th floor. I ment to go to 5th because i knew someone there. 1230 am i knock on this random girls room. "hi, i live on the first floor. there is a five pound rat in my room. can i sleep here?"
"no one should have to sleep with a five pound rat. yes."
Mandatory not an exterminator, here's 2:
1- Dad has a many tool boxes, kits and bags, in one such bag (bc of a careless service employee doing the dishes in the vicinity) fell some food relatively frequently, on the outside nothing was out of the ordinary, but on the inside there was at least 20 roaches existing. I closed that bag AFAIC and then opened it again, just a tad. What followed was the appropriate amount of crazed spraying and subsequent closing of the bag at lightning speed... I stayed there for a good 4 minutes just listening to their frantic scratching of the walls as they desperately looked for an exit to no avail, and when the silence of death followed, I left. Schadenfreude...
2- (context: I live in an apartment complex, 5th floor, with a trash-chute that probably wasn't cleaned properly at the time.) I once went to the kitchen at midnight to drink some of water as you do. I found a small gathering of roaches besides the stove, it was like 6 just in the kitchen. I took my time and sprayed them all one by one and abandoned them as soon as they were legs up and writhing. Then I went to the bathroom and found another 3... More spraying followed. (triple-checked my room before sleeping that night.)
I have to say the narrator on this is pretty damn good the way he read the story from the bugs being in the garbage very very well read. I felt like I was killing those bugs with him.
The last story about the lady with dementia is very sad, she deserves sympathy and help
I watched this and then went into my garage for a drink (we have a fridge in there). I stepped inside and a huge roach crawled over my bare foot. I donât think Iâve ever screamed so loud.
That was the cutest "rats rats we're the rats" I've ver heard
Not an exterminator, but I have a good story for this one. I was apart of the Girl Scouts growing up, and we had two yearly camping trips. One was my troop by itself camping out, and the other where the story takes place was at a camp ground where there was normal camping activities and activities that the older troops set up and ran for the younger troops. Well given that this camp ground was in the middle of nowhere in rural Florida youâd expect a lot of creatures to constantly be around. On one of these trips me and my troop had already gone to bed, only to be woken up by screaming from a couple of girls from another troop we were sharing the site with. We all rush out to see what happened, one was hanging on to the railing of the stairs for dear life trying not to touch the ground, the other frantically flailing around trying to desperately get something off. We got sent back to bed well the adults went to help the girls. We learned later the follow morning what happened, the girl that was holding herself up for dear life on the railing found a really big spider. The other girl being her friend and (at that time) not afraid of spiders goes to step on it. The problem was that the spider was so big because it was female and pregnant, and the second the girl stepped on it it did kill the mom spider but all of the baby spiders burst out going everywhere including climbing up the girl and you can probably guess now why the other girl was hanging onto the railing now. I would say that after that the second girl is now terrified of spiders and those girls friendship was probably never the same. Oh and fun fact the following year at the sit we called treetops because the cabins were so high up it was basically a treehouse, one of the day the girls how stayed there saw a adult panther and itâs baby. Donât worry they stayed up and far away no one got hurt and I doubt the panthers even saw them, an$ the panthers left shortly after they got there after looking around a bit.
One day back in the 80s, my horoscope said, "Something you write will make someone happy." That Was the day I wrote a check to the bugman, he was happy!

7 Foot Rats, Rats along his Rats
I have one Story to ad
In the Summer of 2019 we had a Nest of Hornets in our jard.
It got to the Point that we couldn't get to our Cars without getting attackt.
So i got some spray Oil (Note: If you spray it and igniet it than it will stick to
wath ever you spray it on and continu to burn) and sprayd it in the Entance
of the Hive.
The Wasps cam flying out still burning.
I got stung.
They ended up setting Parts of the Garden on fire.
I distinguisht the flames with a Gardeninghose.
Giant flaming wasps/hornets thatâs insane. Only in Ohio
@@Nightlock93 of course đ
The backyard spider story would have given my mom a heart attack, sheâs a MAJOR ARACHNOPHOBE.
stink bugs.
Hundreds of dead bugs in our attic. probably a thousand baby stink bugs in my windowsill.
5:55 bro's a medieval era sorcerer banishing evil that is sent by the devil to his realmđđđđđ
for me (not an exterminator) but the random silverfish that appeared a few years ago when i woke up early to do chores
I have a story yet it was a time we called a exterminator
I was staying at a really nice hotel in Tennessee down in the smokey mountains or near there. It had a indoor and outdoor waterpark and we were having a really nice day, I WOULDâVE SAID UNTIL THE 2 DAY. An upstairs neighbor dropped a pizza box (with pizza still inside), I kid you not me and my mom we having coffee on the porch and look down to see a whole floor covered in roaches. These roaches were GIGA ROACHES. We called a exterminator and they needed extra days to clean, so we were moved to the upstairs porch. Never pressed charges unfortunately. (side note: we moved out at midnight)
The poor cat had me crying the poor mew mews đ
"Mother, save me!!!!"
5:51 sounds like a video game, storyline or a movie I kid you not Iâm just imagining the ancient seal in the legend of Zelda skyward swordđ
Our dog picked up fleas during a stint in a rented house while looking for something permanent to buy. I think we had to replace the whole inventory of soft furnishings and bedclothes after we were finished de-infesting the place. Fido was in the doghouse for a while...but we loved him.
My story was that me and my mom and I had gotten our first apartment after we immigrated. I was 7 at the time, and my mom got to choose either to choose an apartment either near the fields or near the park. And she decides that she was gonna choose the one near the fields fearing I would run away without telling her to the park, which is something I've never done. And it was the worst decision she ever made. The place was INFESTED with these tiny black bugs, which I can't recall what they were called. We would find them EVERYWHERE in various rooms, clothing, and even our own food. Once we called an exterminator, and they all seemed dead, but surprise, the gas did nothing, and the next morning, while I was looking at them, they randomly sprung up back to life. We finally did get an exterminator who had to bring the big guns to kill them, but the problem never resolved because apparently their nest was UNDER our apartment. And it was only our apartment. The neighbors didn't have this problem, neither the landlord ever mentioned it and wouldn't let us switch to a different one. After God knows how long, we just moved out and went back to Mexico. To live with my grandparents because we just couldn't live there any longer. It's been years since then, and I have no clue how we manage to live there. And hopefully nobody is living there now, cause that was fucking hell. May the landlord who never told us of the infestation get run over and split in two.
About story 7.
If you hadnât used that for a fantasy story, that would be a crime
I remember taking the trash out when i used to work at an auto shop. When i opened the trash can, thousands of maggots were in there.
So I work for B&D pest control company for haul out jobs. This one house we did swarming with rats and roaches. It was horrible they were everywhere. They made nice out in the open because these two people wonât do anything about it. Itâs not completely their fault. One of them is mentally challenged in the other is physically disabled, there was one room that was just full of tissues. There was a mattress in there that was a light lamp that was just on for God knows how long in the middle of all of it but the rats were horrible. We open the oven and there was rats in there the bathtub the bathroom, they were everywhere. One was in a box and I was carrying it jumped on me and then hit the floor and ran. It was horrible and the walls you could take a hammer hit the wall and you wouldnât hit the actual while you were just hit roach shit
Just liked the video because of your suggestion to donate extra food. 10/10 suggestion that could really brighten someoneâs day
7:04 Applebees! Bad spot for a commercial! đ
0:40 HAIL RATMA
Not an exterminator, but I will never forget my first Boy Scout summer camp. It was only a week-long, yet there was always be one thing that I will always remember. There was a bathroom near where our campsite was. When I went inside it wasn't too bad. Just your typical dirty bathroom in the middle of the Woods. But when I open the lid of the first toilet then I saw them. Daddy long legs, hundreds of them. And it wasn't just that one toilet. Needless to say I went to the bathroom in the woods until morning came to use the cleaner bathrooms. Last time I saw that one bathroom, there was a group of men and fellow campers standing outside of it.
Great vids as always
I work in the admin side of pest control for large national customers. Location of a dental chain keeps calling for bedbugs in the same areas but we couldn't figure out why....... there was a mattress store next door. The whole place was riddled with bedbugs and they were coming through the walls. I will never walk into a mattress showroom ever again.
I'm not an exterminator but I once had to deal with a pesky mountain lion
Howâd that go?
@@Wh1st3ler- you wanna hear the full story?
@@dutchvanderbilt9969 yes please, it sounds interesting
@@Wh1st3ler- well I was checking the fence around my property to see if anything needed fixing when I saw movement off to the side. I turned my head and saw the mountain lion running off. So naturally I rushed inside, grabbed the shotgun and came back out looking for it. After a bit of searching my dog starts to growl and snarl like I've never heard her before. So I bolt towards the sound and see her getting backed up against the fence by the mountain lion. So I took aim and basically mag dumped the thing.

Story 7 is just the best
EDIT: Was it a glitch on my part or did this video get taken down for about a week? Or was it 'cause of the music strike thing?
Stinkbugs once got into our air-conditioner there where dozens
The spider story's scared the shit outta me
I am having murderous thoughts for whoever is playing the background game, & *won't F++KING STOP driving into trees, wires, & buildings!!!!!!!*
Lived in a very old dorm for one year of college that was about a 5 minute drive from the main campus. Due to the age of the dorm building, there was always an ant problem in my room. I didn't mind the ants since they were just annoying. However, the ants attracted house spiders into my dorm. I am terrified of spiders and did not tolerate it nearly as well as the ants. To top this all off, the spiders attracted something as well. House centipedes. It was a dorm of horror to say the least. I'm glad the school sold off that building so that no one ever lives in those dorms again.
We dont need the biggest boat, we need da biggest bird
i think everyone has an incredible fear of maggots. its evolution.
Once ran over a nest of digger bees with the lawn mower. They were not happy with me. And my mother had never seen me run that fast while yelling. "BEES! BEES!! BEES!!!" Still ended up with some bee stings on my ass and the lawn mower sat out there for half an hour.
I live on the east coast, and whenever my pool opens, we always find at least a good 10 beetles, possibly Japanese in and around our pool. It was gross, and I would just take some flippers, and use the thin edge to crush them. I even remember eggs coming out. The smell was the worst part.
I worked at this place, in the May, I told my N/S managers about the rats at the compactor outside, They shrugged it off saying there are always rats. I replied not this much. Over the next 5 months they didnât do much and the rat problem grew. I stopped doing any shopping there, told my immediate family and friends not to buy any fresh food or produce there. Wouldnât say why. Then in late November /early December my daughter in-law calls saying some had dropped from the ceiling of the mcds In store, that night when I go in there are pest control,some even have rifles. No joke. Iâll be honest, we brought deliveries and watched the rats playing at most 6 ft away. We got that used to them. We were told you donât talk to anyone but someone spoke to the local paper.
I have found that the solution to bee/wasp nests is, indeed, fire.
If suitable for the scenario, anyway.
One thing I would say
"This is so fucking disgusting that it's beyond comprehension of a the capability of the human mind"
The hornets gas normally will kill them instantly but still be very careful
I know a person so afraid of spiders that she would go into shock from the fright of the seeing so many spiders!! I would never play a spider prank on her because I expect it to end really unwell if I did!!
Bruh giving me the heebie jeebies while Iâm trying to eat my yogurt in peace while finishing my accounting homework so I can finally go to bedâŠ
Boric acid powder mixed 1:1 with powdered sugar completely took care of my momâs German roach problem that sheâd been fighting for years.
I heard that method for ants too.
On huge spider infestation story, on the bright side at least that means the spiders killed off the rest of the insects that mightâve pest the land, which makes me wonder how a large amount of those spiders didnât eventually starve to death once they take over the grass and are all competing each other for food, I assume with that many predators around there food supply should dwindle fast.
it's funny how with the spider infested backyard one, in Australia that's the norm in some places
"its raining roach hallelujah its raining roaches"

That first one was no mere rat; t'was a Skaven!
Watching this at 3 am was a mistake and my skin is now crawling
Infinite bee glitch
Nothing nearly that bad, but we got a Christmas Tree one year that turned out to have a spider egg sack inside. When the tree warmed up in the shower before setting it up, the spiders hatched. My wife is arachnaphobic. She was not happy with the baby spiders living in our shower. Had to get a spray that would kill the spiders, but not the tree or our cat. I was skeptical, but it worked. Smelled like rotten citrus though. That was not among our better Christmases.
love these
Soon as I heard "one night" about dealing with the hornets I knew, ooh, this is gonna be bad. You wanna deal with hornets early in the morning, when they're sleepy because it's cold out. And you want to pour smoke into their nest, not seal it up. And I don't know where the guy heard oil kills hornets. The smoke makes sluggish the ones it doesn't outright kill, then you suck them up with a vacuum cleaner. THEN you seal the hive. (Or set fire to it, depending on when/where it is.) Most of our hornet nests were underground, so we poured smoke into the nest, used a vacuum cleaner to suck up what we could, and then piled earth on top of the entrance.
Wtf was background gameplay tho đ
GTA 5 with some kind of modded flying motorcycle.
3:46 đ. đ đ
The fact I got an ad for Ant-Man and the Wasp halfway through the video lmao
Last summer, our neighbors were evicted, 1week later the park manager looks in the place and immediately calls an exterminator. Three days after that my son and I are working in the yard when an exterminator pulls up and walks into the house, we here a loud "F*#K ME" and he runs out beating his clothing for any bugs. He then proceeds to start spraying our house and yard up to neighbors home, then the neighbors on the other side before he sucks up the courage to go back into the "hellhouse" to spray inside it. We had to fight a small infestation for a week or so but it could have been so much worse.
Sweet vid yo
at 06:38 in this video it started to sound like an action movie
3:30 the fucking SOUND I made when I heard the word cotton mouths, my god!
Oh thank God now I know Iâm not alone with the phobia of wasps
i literally felt itchy the entire time listening to this
Weâve had random giant house spiders going into her house and weâve been having issues with ants as well.
7:53 The Beatles xD
I am a huge bug lover so hearing some of these made me sad, i know they beeded to be removed but the hopefully side of me just wants them to be moved and not killed
0:45 JESUS, how big was that rat?!
I have no idea how I managed to listen to this while eating my sandwiches lmao
Poor lady in the last one
Had one in our old home and it only happened once but our whole attic was FILLED with flies. We have no idea why, because like I said it had only happened once.
The true nightmare in the story at the two and a half minute mark is being in Eugene. XD
Great! Now I can create horror stories
Dunno about WD-40, but I've had brake cleaner kill yellowjackets as fast as Raid. Maggot story: I was a trash collector until last year. Oceans of maggots were just a humdrum part of the job.
bro,story 7 was awesome it was like some dungeons and dragons type deal
Only 103 degrees in Texas?HA!It's 113 degrees in AZ
Hey Genius, I love your videos. Would you ever be interested in doing horror stories on Reddit like Dr. hollow? I would love to hear you narrate scary stories from Reddit.
Oh God damn cottonmouths
Baby cottons are kinda cute tho. They have a lure tail!
