A wasp's stinger is like a ribbon. They don't sting once and die like a bee. It latches on and the stinger goes in one way and the other over and over. Nasty little bastards. I kill them and Vipers on sight.

I have never been stung by a bee that I didn't inadvertently pissed off in some way. Wasp on the other hand are menace. Have one of those fly into your shirt and you can have a dozen bites. Around the house I hang these. They run about eight bucks. They are essentially fly paper with a wasp attractant. I have had mine covered so thick you cant even see the sticky paper.

Nothing lasts, nothing is finished, and nothing is perfect.

Used that 20 foot spray can of hornet and wasp a few times, but never thought of WD-40 or starting fuel or brake cleaner. But I've got them all in the garage, back up arsenal . I love this site, full of useful information for everyday life!

Yeah, might even have a cure for stink foot. :woohoo:
I wouldn't waste good stuff on them. :lol:
Bees are bad enough, but wasps and hornets, even yellow jackets will make for one "F'ed up day". :evil:
Some guys are allergic to bee stings. Could be fatal. :dry:
