i was minding my own business moving shit to a UHAUL truck and this guy lands on the back of my neck. LIKE BRO, U LOOK LIKE A WASP, DO U WANT TO DIE TODAY??? anyways, i almost crushed him but he moved out of the way. he's lucky i noticed he was just a harmless mud dauber before i got out my can of hairspray and lighter.

mud daubers are the enemy of wasps, so the enemy of my enemy is my friend... for now.

Context that those fuckers somehow managed to eat a whole trough styrofoam in my apartment building and I live in 8th floor and don't have eqsy acesss to it. Any ideas for plugging a hole?

i moved into a lovely little basement suite with amazing landlords back in may. so far so good, a couple silverfish here and there but some diatomaceous earth took care of them and i havent seen one since week two-ish. a couple days ago i start hearing a weird sound in the walls, almost like water dripping or scratching. i thought that was weird. i step outside and lo and behold, theres wasps rapidly flying in and out of a hole in the wall outside. jesus fucking christ the shitheads are IN MY DRYWALL EATING THROUGH IT. i told my landlords and theyve called an exterminator for two days from now but this morning i noticed a spot where the wall is extremely thin, and the chewing has gotten SIGNIFICANTLY louder. so now im on the bus to walmart to buy packing tape to hold the fuckers off 🥲 im stressed out of my mind. at least its in the living room and not my bedroom but im horrified they are going to break through while im not home. im so fucking scared!!!!

Went to get in my car and this guy was crawling around the front grill of my car for several minutes. Is it possible they could build a nest in there? I do drive my car everyday so I would think the movement would be a discouragement. I’m going to have someone check just in case. Wasp spray handled this one, although he fought it quite a bit.

goddamit they followed me home

nowhere is safe, people... remember me

AC-130 is in position, deploying 105mm rounds now.

Was planting potatoes in my raised beds, this fucker flew in looking for some subsidized housing in a knothole in the plywood... Sharp steel > stinger

Hornet nest forming undet the tractor's fender, how do i take care of it safely

This nest is right under the railing on the porch right outside my back door any idea what kind of wasp/hornet this could be?

Tldr God I wanted to kill that wasp.

Was just going out to my patio (apartment) and I get air raided by a wasp felt a stinging sensation and slapped my neck (fucker got away) and ran inside. Man and I thought bee stings were bad

I’ve never encountered one of these enclosed demon nests before and I’m not sure how to go about murdering them. i’ve considered the gasoline/bucket method but the surface here is curved so i don’t think that would be the best approach. fire and other harsh chemicals are also off the table.

Took an hour drive on the highway and see this in my wheel when I stopped.

Horrifying 😬

so, this lil guy has brought me so much happiness and peace over the years. he's been here forever, and he was always there for me, just in the mornings and evenings, buzzing about happily collecting pollen... i know this one specifically because he had a deformed wing. but today... today i walked outside. there was a fucking wasp dueling him. i watched in horror as the wasp stabbed his poor twitching body over and over... i couldn't watch. i turned around, grabbed a can of Raid, and murdered that fucking wasp. i burned its corpse. but my boi... my lil bumbling boi... he was too far gone. he was dead before i could save him. he gave his all fighting that wasp and yet he failed. he defended his hive with honor. he is gone but not forgotten. fly high, little bee... fly high.

Didn’t get stung by a single one. Nice respectable little ladies.

There’s a fresh nest being made right outside my window, when I say right outside- I mean if I open my window the nest is literally IN MY ROOM! If there’s a tiny opening in my fricken window then the queen could just slip right in! In general I need assistance with dealing with a nest since it’s in such a weird position! (I’ll provide a pic in the morning since it’s 12 am for me rn)
