Someone should have popped an H on that shop vac so everyone knew it was full of hornets

They thought the H was for honey.

Eventually, but they hadn't smoked it out yet.

Do dumb shit, bad things happen.

Unfortunate that those hornets are all very likely dead.

A shop vac is a pretty common tool with professional nest removal

They can last a while in there. I used my shop vac for spotted lantern flies. They didn't die.

Not necessarily, you can easily modify the things to not harm them.
