Next time don't bee so stingy and hire someone to mow for you, then you can relax and hive a nice day. I would have swarm my ass off if those little buggers tried to attack me, that sounds painful.

Oh they do know, and they are coming for you, and then for the world...... I should stop watching cheesy monster movie shouldn't I?

Just let the mower run out of gas and stop on its own.

'cause hornets hate to see gasoline get wasted, I guess?

Go to home depot and buy the hornet killing spray that shots up to a distance of 27 ft so you don't have to be in contact with them. I wish you all the best and good luck killing these quitters.

..... Dude, trust me. They know.

What is this, a Michael Crichton book?

Don't most mowers have a dead man lever, so if you trip going up a hill the mower won't slide back into you. Or did you zip tie yours?

Now is your chance! Use your powers of hypnotism and take control of them! Use them to conquer the world! Wait that doesn't work...

Try a wet teabag on the stings, and a shoulder launched mini nuke for the nest like on Starship Troopers? ;D
