They will move right over.
"Zotnottable"?
My method is to open three bottles of cold beer and one at room temp. Pour the room temp one in several saucers then begin pouring the cold ones into yourself as you wait for tomorrow to cut the grass. I never hurry nature, especially when it helps me to procrastinate and sit on my porch to watch the hurrying world go by.
Four syllables. I think 3 is the max for catchiness.
The opposite of ZOT - TOZ!
Call in the SWAT team.
Toz-worthy.
I like it.
OK, that's cruel.
What did you do to create such a rage in the poor little insects.
My judgement is that they heard about Bush talking about islamofacists, and they are rioting.
My advice is to get ahold of koffi.
Hmmm, you've given me an idea, use a MOAB bunker buster!
First, ID the suckers, though the protectiveness of the ground strongly suggests some kind of yellow jacket. Saucers of beer MAY calm them down, might drown a few, and certainly would be kind in any event.
But your obejctive is to locate their nest. Then, when you are confident that you know that, and when you've procured one of those instant knock-down sprays -- usually malathion (BAD for honey bees) and pyrethrins -- wait until dusk. Most of this kind of critter uses the sun for navigation, so they will home at night. Drench the next. You do NOT want to be using a flashlight because they will think it's the sun and be very upset and concerned (like Daschle, even though they're bigger than he) and they may share their feelings with whatever is near the flashlight and open to dialogue. You'll find them good at making a point.
***at night and kill them all***
man, I can't type
Using a electric leaf blower, feed a small can of Sevin Dust into the intake and you have a instant yard fogger.
If you are real ballsy, you can use the same blower with the leaf bag attachment and suck up the critters and release them into someone else's backyard. *Works best if you can run real fast.
"Hold your Zot!"
Airstrike. Make sure your air-support has these.

Have you tried hittin' 'em with the lawnmower?
(the second part is a serious question)
In Bee-for the Zot.
Seriously though...
You need a spray container that you can attach to your hose, like this one:

Fill the container with water and add about 1/2 cup of dishwashing soap. Spray lawn - wait a day, then mow.
