<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I agree it means we are in for an early and hard
winter. The wasps and yellow jackets are extremely agressive right now, looking
for ways to feed the queen (the only one to survive the winter). The dish soap
remedy is helpful, but even beter is a bit of raw meet suspended above a tray of
water. Those dang things are carnivores, and eat until they fall down and drown.
Honey bees and other pollinators aren't carnivorous, so it doesn't kill
them....Also, that ground wasp nest? A bit of beer in a saucer or a near empty
beer bottle next to the nest....they are natural alcoholics, and drink 'til they
drown. Knocking down their nests and letting the ants have 'em is great if you
have lots of space to stay away from the carnage.... </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On the other hand, the wasps just love some of the
pests that eat our greens (aphids, leaf miners, and even slugs), so getting rid
of all of them might be detrimental---mostly, I'm willing to risk that in order
to avoid being bitten by the nasty beggars!</FONT></DIV>

clearing out some dead bushes and trees from the bank behind the house. I ran
in to a nest of yellow jackets.By the time I made it to the house I had about
12 to 13 stings. Six or so came in the house with me. I had a few more stings
before I killed them. I stayed inside for awhile and watched out the window.
The air was full of them. My right eye is still about half closed. I do not
remember yellow jacket stings bothering me that much. These must be some
hybrid version.<BR>I am not sure where their nest is, so I am done with that
project until it gets cold or until next
year.<BR>Roger<BR><BR>=======================================================<BR>List
