“Could be worse....’THE GIANT LEECHES’”

A horror movie about Congress. That would be the scariest one ever made.

Found some interesting stuff made by an outfit called No Pest. When it hits, turns into shaving cream and they're trapped, until it melts down a bit and falls to the ground. Worked very well for a situation involving an open car port. Red wasps were nesting on one side, yellow jackets on the other half and there was daily gang war over turf that we were walking through the middle of that we didn't wanna get caught up into. Angry wasps buzzing each other all the time, so we no pested their asses and put an end to it.

I hated mowing hay as a kid. It never failed that I would disturb a bumblebee nest. I was funny to see the bees trying to sting the tractor, but they would seem to figure out that I was really what they were looking for.

While the paper wasps being attacked by the Asian giant hornet in the latest sighting might disagree, honeybees probably have more to worry about, the state agriculture department says. "These hornets may attack honey bee hives in the late summer or early fall," the department's news release says. "A small group of Asian giant hornets can kill an entire honey bee hive in a matter of hours."

You get pretty big necrotic craters where these asian giant hornets sting. Ive seen pics of folks covered with multiple stings and its not pretty.

Yeah - same thing with the log-skidders and cats.
But with skidders and cats, you could just drop the blade and bury ‘em!
