running away, preferably indoors is always a good plan… Even batting with a hand is dangerous…..

sometimes they hide and make you think they’ve gone, then come at you when least expected.

do you rekon they can plot?

yeah!

the hover flies that impersonate wasps may look a little bit like wasps but dont have the same menacing movements or intimidating behaviour aspects.

makes me think wasps have personalities and plot to threaten all humans

I’m allergic to the fuckers, if they sting me its a blue light journey to the nearest Emergency Department :yakk:

Therefore I have a zero tolerance policy to wasps, they are killed on sight the moment they become a threat…

thankfully I only encountered two last year (they were big ones, although by the time the chemicals had got to them the had shrunk quite a bit).

heres a strange fact I learned, some wasp sprays are based on the same chemicals found in insect stings, so when you kill a wasp you are in fact stinging it…

wasps are very intelligent for their size and have defined social structures…

the reaction I get is that allergic shock/swelling reaction – some of my family (but not all) have this problem as well…

around now the queens will be out, looking for places to nest.

yeah the weather is ace, if it’s this hot now, summer is gonna be boilin! good news for smokers come july, i’d prefer to sit outside with a pint n a fag in the warm sun than inside anyway!

wasps are crafty little buggers. the only downside to eating/drinking outside. you can catch them in glasses though, as they ain’t the fastest :weee:
