Heard the warmer winter is supposed to lead to an increased wasp population, anyone else hear this?
Wasps are all over I'm these parts.

Im at war around my house..... I love to see these things die. I juat sprayed my house yesterday since termites are swarming, and a few hours after my wife pointed out 3 wasps on ground "having seizures" . I was so proud of myself.

I hope for your sake, she was joking.

Something stung me on the back of the neck the other day when I was mowing the yard. Don't know what it was but it hurt like hell. Worst part is I didn't gain any superpowers or anything so I'm kinda bummed about it...

Stay away from New England. They're the worst up there.

I got stung a couple of times on my finger last weekend while cleaning out my gutters. I think I emptied 2 cans of wasp spray in that nest. I hate those frickers. First time I've been stung in a few years. I forgot how much that burns. The wasp have been all over the place lately

Killed a nest of 5 yesterday that had taken up residence in my bird feeder. Destroyed another nest last week. It definitely seems like they are more prominent so far this year, when I haven't had any issues at this house the previous years.
All you need is some warm soapy water. Kills them instantly. Almost as satisfying as squashing them, almost.

I kilt 13 of them bitches this morning. There was a small opening in some pipe at work. When I went to move an extension cord near the pipe two of them flew out so I grabbed some wasp spray. I unleashed hell on those frickers and watched 6 crawl out and die, then I looked in the pipe and saw 7 more laying down. Victory for me.

I keep a steady supply of wasp spray at the house and a can with my hunting stuff. Climbed up into my box stand a couple of weeks ago and there were two nests of guinea wasps . Luckily I didn't get popped. I went scorched earth of them with two cans of wasp spray and counted about 25 dead once the deed was done.

Same here, though wasp spray ain't what it used to be . Used to be you could hit them bastards from far away and they's instantly drop like a rock. Now they buzz around on the nest for 15-30 seconds and sometimes even fly away before (hopefully) suffering a painful death. I've drenched nests only to see them full of wasps again a day or two later. Even switched to Bengal and it's no better than the rest.
ETA: My shed is always full of them. If I need something out of the shed and it costs less than $20, I'm just buying a new one before I enter that damn shed.

There is nest in my attic..
As soon as I pull down the door 1 or 2 will fly into the house..
Would it be fine waiting for night and bombing the attic?
Not sure where nest is, and not one to really poke around attics after I came face to face with a Texas rat snake one time..

I kid because snakes don't bother me, but frick a damn roach. I kill roaches with 25 ft wasp sray. I won't get any closer. I hate wasps and love engaging in all out war with them, but I have an irrational fear of roaches.
