Hold on.

Oh, it's flying.
Hold on.

It's going back
towards the nest.

Oh, no.
Wait, wait, wait.

Don't move.

Oh.

Did you get it?
- Yes!

Yes!

I'm Coyote Petersen.

And I'm about to enter the sting
zone with the yellow jacket.

Here we go.

Today, we are headed out

into the suburban wilds
of Westerville, Ohio,

to search for any species
of paper wasp, which can be

carefully caught and
ultimately used to give

me a good series of stings.

Welcome to another day in the
office for Coyote Peterson.

Coyote, are we doing
what I think we're doing today?

Oh, yes.

Today is Yellow Jacket day.

Now, you guys may
remember a little episode

called The Bullet
Ant Challenge where

I was stung by a bullet ant.

And then a subsequent video
called Bullet and Kryptonite

where I used a product called
Sting-Kill to help alleviate

the pain and the itching.

Now, Sting-Kill absolutely
loved that video.

And then they came
to us and said,

we'd love to work with you
guys and do a sponsor video,

but let's get you
stung by something

a little more commonplace.

You know, not many people
are running into bullet ants.

So they said, what if you
get stung by yellow jackets?

Now, we all know that
yellow jackets can be found

at your local park, maybe you
see them in your backyard,

sometimes they even
get into the house.

We know they're angry.

We know they're aggressive.

And people are often
stung every single summer.

So what we're going to do today
is actually build a bug vacuum.

A bug what?

A bug vacuum.

Bear with me here for a second.

So you see this?

I found this online, right?

Looks pretty cool.

Right.

The Extreme Bug Vac.

But unfortunately, I
have one opened up here.

This is supposed to
have a lot of suction.

Mark, put your hand out.

Yeah, no.

I'm pretty sure that's not
going to catch us any hornets,

but what I love about this
is the plastic capsule.

Check that out.

It's got this little
revolving door.

And you are supposed to be
able to suck a bug in there,

close it up, look at it through
the magnifying glass and then,

of course, it's
got a little screen

so that the insect can breathe.

What I want to do is
actually take this capsule

from the bug vacuum and MacGyver
something with a real vacuum.

Check out that suction.

Oh, yeah.
Yeah.

Suction power there.

Oh, yeah.

That's going to catch a hornet.

But what I need to do is
reconstruct this where I'm

going to actually
cut the hose and duct

tape the capsule in between.

Then I'll be able to use this
end with the nozzle, which

has great suction
power, and then I

think we're going to be ready
to go out and start searching

for some yellow jackets.

Oh, I almost forgot.

I am going to mount the
GoPro on it as well.

So where are we today?

We're in Ohio, right?

We are in Ohio.

We're actually
right in my backyard

here in Westerville, Ohio.

And I actually put in
a phone call and email

to a number of my different
friends in the area.

And I said, go out this
morning and look around

near the eaves of your house.

You know, like where the
gutter attaches to the roof?

And let me know if
you see any wasp

nests, hornet nests,
yellow jacket nests.

Anything that looks like a
stinging insect, let me know,

and we may come
and investigate it.

So we're going to kind
of go on a little bit

of a field trip today, guys.

Until we can find ourselves
some good stinging bugs.

Are we testing it out?

Yeah.

Yep.

I think it's going to work.

Last step.

Now, it's like a proton pack.

Oh, yeah.

This thing is awesome.

All right, well, if
you guys are ready,

let's go try to catch
some yellow jackets.

Let's do it.

Woo!

All right, well, we
might as well check

the park that we started at.

Great structures here
for us to investigate.

You see all these
eaves and overhangs,

perfect place for paper wasps.

Now, why do paper wasps
like these underhangs here?

Well, because
it's a great spot

to build a nest that's
out of the realm

of predators and the rain.

Let's see.

There are eight known species

of wasps that call Ohio home.

And many of them
can be encountered

right in your own backyard.

However, unless they are
intentionally, or accidentally

provoked, your odds of being
stung are actually very slim.

Let's go this way.

Come on, Mario.

Well, it's a fun
day at the park.

Yeah.

On the weekend.

Should've
brought a soccer ball.

Did you see
something fly out?

I did.

I think it was a honeybee then.

Now, honeybees, you
oftentimes see on clover.

Let me see.

There's one right there.

Look, look, look, look, look.

That's a honeybee.
European honeybee.

Yeah.

Now, that is not
what we're after.

Honeybees actually have
fur all over their bodies,

whereas yellow jackets
are completely bald.

Bees also have barbs
on their stingers.

So when you get stung by a
bee, its stinger gets removed.

You get stung by a
yellow jacket, no barbs.

So it can sting you
over and over and over.

If I was looking for honeybees,
we'd be in the right spot.

But unfortunately,
yellow jackets

do not pollinate clover.

All right, let's keep looking.

So why are we
looking at the ground now?

I thought we were looking up.

That's a good
question, actually.

Oh.

It could be perfect.

I see some ants in there.

A lot of times, yellow
jackets will actually

build their nests underground.

So if you see something
that looks like a mole hole,

just respect it
from a safe distance

because it's possible
that yellow jackets

have built a nest in there.

A cavity in a tree like
this is also fair game,

but there's nothing
in this tree.

I'm not sure we're going to find
anything in this park, guys.

Might be time to
take a road trip.

Let's see where else we can
look for yellow jackets.

You ready?

The bug suckers
are hitting the road.

Oh, yeah.

Well, it is 12:43, which means
it's officially lunchtime,

and we have a new plan.

Now, searching for
the yellow jackets

ourselves is not exactly
panning out very well.

We found some nests
that were vacant.

We found some honeybees
and some bumblebees,

but we haven't found the
infamous yellow jacket.

But what we're going to do--

bear with me here for a second,
is actually have a picnic.

Because oftentimes,
if think about it,

yellow jackets show up
when you're at a picnic.

So I'm thinking if we get some
soda pops and some ice cream,

we hang out in the sun,
maybe these stinging insects

will come to us and we will then
be able to use the bug sucker

5000 to just sit there
and go

and suck them up.
Give me this.

I'm going to go look in
the garbage can right now

and see if there
are any hornets.

Guys, we're really looking
hard for these hornets,

but, you know what?

They empty their trash a lot.

Check this out.

There's like nothing in there.

Can't exactly find
hornets if there isn't

a bunch of sticky stuff around.

What Mario did was he put--

look at that.

Ice cream in the
grass on top of a lid.

Maybe that will bring
in the hornets, and the

yellow jackets, and the wasps.

I don't know.

I guess we'll see what happens.

Mmm.

Pretty good, huh, Mario?

Mm.

I'm enjoying mine.

It's a beautiful
day for a picnic.

We'll see you in a bit.

All right, bye.
No yellow jackets, though.

Guys.

What's up?

We might be in business.

I just got off the phone
with my friend Jasper.

And I know at the
beginning of the video,

I kind of made a joke and said,
hey, I sent an email, a text,

to my friends that
live in the area,

and I told them to
go outside and check

around their houses to see
if any yellow jackets were

hanging out.

Sure enough, my friend
Jasper went out,

and he said, right on his back
patio there's a little nest

and there are three
yellow jackets.

I said, you sure?

He said, well, they're
yellow and they're black

and they look like
they want to sting.

So I think we may actually
be able to put the bug

sucker 5000 to the test.

You guys ready?

Let's do it.

And can we bring
our treats with us?

Of course.

Let's catch some yellow jackets.

All right, guys, well,
we are at Jasper's house.

Now, he has asked to not
be on camera, because he's

not used to being on YouTube.

So you won't get
to meet him today,

but he has given us permission
to go out on his porch

and scout for these
yellow jackets.

If they're there, we're going
to use the bug sucker 5000

to catch them and then go
to a controlled environment

so that we can get me stunt.

You guys ready?
Sounds like a plan.

Let's do it.

Gear up, you guys.

Grab your other cameras,
and we'll be ready to go.

You look happy.

You see that
corner right there?

Uh-uh.

That is a small nest,

and there are two
yellow jackets.

Now, Jasper has provided
us with a step stool.

He was thinking ahead.

So I'm going to
use this step stool

and get up close with
the bug sucker 5000.

You guys ready?

We're going to have to do
this quick, because I already

see that they are on the
alert with their wings

kind of propped out, ready
to swoop down and sting us.

So we really just
have one shot at this.

OK.

So what I'm going to do--

I love my ghostbuster pack,
but to really make this work,

I do have to take the
bug sucker 5000 out.

The moment we've
all been waiting for.

Let's put it this way,
it's either going to work

or we're all going to get stung.

The best.

Did it work?

Got one of them in there.

There's still
one on the nest.

Get the net.
Get the net.

Get the net.

Oh, it's flying.

Hold on.
Hold on.

It's going back
towards the nest.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Don't move.

Did you get it?

Yes!

Yes!

Shut the door.

Shut the door.

It totally worked!

Look at that!

Totally caught the yellow
jackets, both of them,

just like that.

Woo!

The bug sucker 5000 pays off.

Can you guys believe that?

Holy mackerel, we caught them.

Wow.

It was crazy.

The one was actually
climbed onto this thing,

and I was like, oh-oh,
we're going to get stung.

I was like, get the net!
Get the net!

But then it went back up to
the nest and, sure enough,

got it inside of the capsule.

It's all right, Coyote.

Now we have to go to where
we're going to get you stung.

Not at Jasper's house.

Yeah, now we're going to
go to a controlled situation

and we're going to get
these yellow jackets out

of the little capsule
and get me stung.

But what I'm going
to do for transport

is not take this hose apart now.

I'm actually just going to
place it inside of the bug net,

just in case they get out.

And just like that,
we're ready to go.

Nice.

Awesome.

High fives, guys.

That's so cool that that worked.

That totally worked.
Boom.

All right, guys.

And we're back.

Now, we do have the
yellow jackets on hand.

But first, let's
talk about the kit

that I have here on the table.

Now, as always, with
these sting episodes.

I have my trusty
entomology forceps here.

I'll be using this
to actually hold

one of the Yellow
Jackets against my arm

to induce a sting.

And just in case something
goes horribly wrong,

as always, the epinephrine pen.

Now, do you think you're
in the clear at this point?

You've been stung a bunch.

I have.

And you never know, every
single insect sting is unique,

and you never know how
your body will react.

Even a yellow jacket can force
you into anaphylactic shock.

So always have this just
as a safety precaution.

And, of course,
the star of today's

episode, Sting-Kill, who proudly
is sponsoring this episode.

And what we're going
to do after I'm stung

is try both of these
products on the sting

to make sure that
it can relieve not

only the pain but also
the itching that's

going to come after the fact.

You guys ready to see
the yellow jackets?

Let's bring them out.

All right.

Well, they did transport
safely inside of the net

and still inside of
the little capsule.

Pretty happy they
didn't escape in the car.

Yeah, that would have been
a bad situation, wouldn't it?

All of us in the car and then
yellow jackets flying around.

And sure enough, there they
are, inside of the capsule.

Now, what I need to do is
actually remove the hose

from the capsule so that we
just have this individualized,

and then I can carefully get
one of those yellow jackets out

of there.

Now, here's a really interesting
little fact to remember.

All hornets are
technically wasps,

but not all wasps are hornets.

How about that?

And anything that
is black and yellow

is technically considered
a yellow jacket.

So what do we have?

What did we find?

This, I believe, is what's
called a European paper wasp,

but because it's
yellow and black,

we're just generically
calling it a yellow jacket.

And is this what
we find at picnics?

Is this what's swarming us
when we're trying to, like,

eat our ice cream?

No, that is usually a hornet.

Now, hornet has a much
stockier-looking body,

a thicker abdomen and
a narrower thorax,

but these ones look
just like wasps.

You see the very pointy wings.

If you can kind of see there,
you see where the thorax leads

into the abdomen right there?

It's very narrow and indicative
of being an actual wasp.

But I think at this
juncture what we're

ready to do is bring the
bug net back into this,

place the capsule
inside, and work

on getting one of these yellow
jackets out of the container.

You ready for that?

So what's
the process here?

You're going to let
them go inside the net

and then grab them
with the forceps?

Yeah.
Here's what's going to happen.

So I'm going to place the
capsule down inside of the net

like this, keep it contained.

I'm going to open the capsule,
hopefully only let one of them

out, close it back
up, remove the capsule

and then go in there with
the entomology forceps

to pick it up, bring it out,
and place it on my forearm.

I'm Coyote Petersen, and
I'm about to enter the sting

zone with the yellow jacket.

Here we go.

1, [sigh] 2, 3.

Ow!
Did you get there?

Got me there.

Yeah.

Get you good?

Yeah, got me twice.

Is that the worst one?

Yeah, that was the
worst one so far.

Are you good?

Ah, he
got the stinger, like,

all the way inserted
into my arm.

Oh, my arm's starting
to hurt a little bit.

Hold on.
Let's do this.

You get back into the capsule.

[inaudible] back.

Yeah, there you have it.

You see all those welts?

I took several stings
all right in that area.

And look at this, there's a lot
of red coloration developing

right near the veins.

That is really
interesting looking,

and it burns, and
it's really warm.

Really warm right now.

I mean, honestly--

Yeah.

Yeah, it's
hot to the touch, right?

Yeah, you can
definitely feel the swelling.

Yeah.

Now, it was not
nearly as painful

as any of the other
stings I've gone through.

I was actually able to keep
the yellow jacket on my arm

as it was inflicting stings.

It did get me one time pretty
good right at the end there

and I had to let it go.

Of course, we got it safely
back into the capsule.

As you can see there,
there they both are.

They'll be released
here shortly.

But what we want to
do now is actually

use the Sting-Kill products to
see if it will alleviate some

of the burning in my arm
and, of course, the itching

that is almost certain
to come if I don't

use the Sting-Kill ointment.

You guys ready for that?
Let's do it.

OK.

Well, which
one do you want?

Do you want the capsules,
or do you want the--

probably just take both.
Let's talk about both.

We're going to
give a shot at both.

So this is the
Sting-Kill wipe, right?

Oftentimes used for
anything from a bee

sting or a wasp sting,
even a mosquito bite,

even a jellyfish.

If you guys are on the
beach and you're swimming,

you run into a jellyfish, this
is perfect for that, right?

So what I'm going to do is
I'm going to open this up.

I'll tell you what--

I keep myself pretty well
composed in a lot of this.

But now that the pain's actually
starting to set in my arm,

I do--
I get a little bit lightheaded.

So the Sting-Kill wipes
have a maximum strength

mix of benzocaine and menthol.

And I actually
really like these.

They're neon green.

Looks like Ninja Turtle
mutagen. Check that out.

And woo!

That is a strong
smell right there.

All right, I'm going to
put that on the sting.

Are you ready?

Yeah, sure, go ahead.

Oh, wow.

It's cold.

The menthol definitely
cools it immediately.

Yes.

Wow.

That really does have a pretty
incredible cooling effect.

Now, similar to the bullet ant--

I mean, I was in a lot of pain
after that, and it did help,

but of course, the bullet ant
pain eventually did come back

and lasted for nearly 36 hours.

I'm hoping that this
relieves much quicker.

Now, I do love the wipes, right?

And I carry the wipes in my
pack, but this right here,

the Sting-Kill capsules--
Those.

I like those.

Yeah, these are my
absolute favorite.

It's like-- OK, let
me open one up here.

Now, they are
individually wrapped.

See this?

Very cool.

And all you have to do is pop
the back end out like that.

And inside here
is a little glass

capsule within the plastic.

So all you have to do--

this is my favorite part, ready?

Shatter the glass on the inside.

And it has this
little cotton swab.

It's strangely satisfying.

I know.

It's like, oh, here
comes the ooze.

Yes!

Ah!

Oh, that is my favorite.

And that real thick
serum right there is

literally instantaneous relief.

I personally love
to just do this,

dab it right on the sting zone.

Woo!

And as you can see,
there is more liquid

here than you get in the wipes.

So if you have a
really bad sting,

or you're stung multiple
times, I definitely

recommend going to the
Sting-Kill capsules,

because as you can see, look
how much of the ointment

is actually coming out there.

OK.

So once again,
Sting-Kill saves the day.

Yes.

Sting-Kill has saved the day.

My arm feels a lot better.

In fact, there's also a little
bit of a numbing agent here.

So I can't feel any of
the pain at this point.

Ooh!

Arm is a little bit stiff,
but hopefully this formula

will also reduce any
potential itching that's going

to come down the road here.

Now, I know you're thinking
to yourselves, Coyote,

those were simply
yellow jackets,

and you've been stung by
tarantula hawks and bullet ants

and hopefully soon
the warrior wasp.

But keep in mind, guys, that
the yellow jacket is something

that is right in your backyard.

It's something you
can easily come across

and something that you
definitely have the potential

of being stung by.

Now, if you are
unfortunately stung,

remember, Sting-Kill
is definitely

going to help you out when it
comes to alleviating that pain

and any potential itching.

The
rainforests of Costa Rica are

filled with beautiful animals.

However, sometimes the
most stunning creatures

can also be the most dangerous.

Defensive appearances
are everything

on the Osa Peninsula,
whether it's

camouflage to keep you hidden.

Look at that gross bugger.

Ahh!

And I know everybody's watching
me right now saying, Coyote,

you're going to get stung
by the toe biter today?

Absolutely not.

- or bright colors

to warm predators that you
would be one toxic treat,

it's all about survival of the
best hidden or best dressed.

But what if you
don't care to hide?

And what if you were not born
with bright colors, but instead

one soft looking cuddly coat,
which conceals beneath it

an armor of venomous spines?

Get ready to meet the
furry puss caterpillar.

Holy cow, look at this.

Look at this caterpillar.

What are you looking at?

Whoa.

You don't know
what that is, do you?

No.
No, I wouldn't touch that.

This is what the locals
call a fire caterpillar.

You sure
that's a caterpillar?

Oh, yeah.
Watch out.

I'm going to bend this
branch down because I don't

want him to fall on my face.

I would be in pain for hours.

Look at that.

It looks like a mustache.

I don't exactly know the proper
name for this caterpillar.

This caterpillar

has many nicknames.

On the Osa Peninsula, it's
known as the fire caterpillar.

However, it's more commonly
called the furry puss

caterpillar because
it so closely

resembles a fuzzy kitty cat.

In the world of science,
this is actually

a flannel moth caterpillar.

But don't let their adorable
and cuddly looks fool you,

this fuzzy puss is covered
in urticating hairs.

And if you're unfortunate
enough to make skin contact,

these hairs can be
extremely irritating.

What's even worse
is that just below

the hairs are venomous spines.

Get a handful of those,
and for nearly 12 hours

you will be in
excruciating pain.

I'm pretty sure that
the little bristles

that will do you damage are
on the other side of this fur.

Let me take a look in there.

Oh, boy.

Can you see that?

Oh, yeah.

Look at that.

Those are what dig
into your skin.

And you go to pet it,
and you're like, ahh!

Your hand is on fire.

And actually, I
think I got a couple

of them that touched my finger
because my finger's starting

to itch.

I'm sure you guys
are thinking, oh,

come on, Coyote, just touch it.

No, no, no, no, no.

My hand will feel
like it is on fire.

Now, it's tough to tell which
end of this guy is the head.

I'm going to go ahead and guess
that this end is the head,

because as you can
see, he's eaten

a hole right through that leaf.

And we've caught
this caterpillar

right in the middle of dinner.

And I'm sorry that I had to bug
you in the middle of dinner,

Mr. Caterpillar, but
you were just far

too bizarre looking
for us to not

get in front of the cameras.

All right, let's
see if we can get

this fuzzy little caterpillar
to show us his underside.

Check this out.

Watch this.
Look at that.

He's dancing.

I just want to get
him off the leaf.

Now, watch.

Look at that.

You see his underside?

Kind of gross.

Looks
like a tremor, doesn't it?

See all those little legs?

Like suction cups,
that allows him to move

up and down tree trunks.

And his mouth is on
the end of his head,

and he gnaws away at the leaves.

Wow.

Just when I thought the
rainforests of Costa Rica

couldn't get any
more bizarre, we

come across this
obscure-looking caterpillar,

somewhere between a sheepdog
and a blond mustache.

I'm Coyote Petersen.

Be brave.

Stay wild.

We'll see you on
the next adventure.

These caterpillars

are venomous.

However, there are no
reported cases of contact

that have resulted in death.

If you are ever stung,
the best first aid

is a cold ice pack applied
to the location of the sting.

And antihistamines can
be administered to help

with the itching and burning.

All right, Donny.

We'll see you later, buddy.

Enjoy your leaf.

Lesson to be learned here.

If you see a caterpillar
that looks soft and fuzzy,

do your absolute best to
avoid cuddling with it.
