Anyone know where to get really heavy duty gloves? The kind I used to buy from Kelley (before Mann Lake bought them) were heavy steer hide, a starched collar around the wrist ( non vented) then the usual canvas sleeve with elastic at the end. Can't find these now anywhere and the yellow jackets/hornets are kicking my ass! Appreciate it! Dan

WTH do you do with yellow jackets and hornets that require gloves?
This reminds me, I gotta go hit the yellow jacket nest in my pickup tailgate latch.

Thanks Doug. No, those won't cut it with the YJs. They sting right through the wrist area. Thanks though Welder's gloves and duct tape??? G, it may come to that!

Agree with the welders gloves. Use them here. Harbor Freight ones do fine.

I've used the rubber gloves from these guys for killing wasp nests and have had no problems. https://westernbeestore.3dcartstores.com/Gloves_c_16.htmlPut on the suit and gloves and go to town. No chemicals, just rip and crush by hand...kinda satisfying.
