I'M GOING IN

[NuclearDem]

Massive wasp nests all over the front porch. Despite such a fear being completely irrational and probably clinical, I dread having to deal with it.

Music is on. Operation Rock N Roll Pest Control initiated. Will report back. If I don't come back, tell my family I love them.

1. Show those White Anglo Saxon Protestants you mean business

call the hurt line!

[NuclearDem]

2. Oh, if only I were actually referring to my annoying neighbors

But even they don't have the laser guided skin melting stingers these monsters have.

3. At first I thought this was a thread about GD (nt)

[hamsterjill]

8. Me, too!!!

[UTUSN]

13. Me 3!1 n/t

[Sherman A1]

18. Make me #4

I have abandoned that forum completely. Just seems to mean-spirited to me over there. The Lounge is much more pleasant.

15. My first thought also

4. I really hate the way they wait for their prey to be in the most defenseless

chrysalis stage before piercing their shells and sucking them dry.

So much about wasps that people don't know about.

5. Baby killing psychopaths!

[LiberalEsto]

6. Yeah, GD's been pretty nasty lately. nt

[Wait Wut]

7. !!!

Be careful! I friggn' hate bees and wasps. Bees only get a pass because honey is the most precious food on earth.

9. I'm not big on incesticides but sometimes it's necessary.

Get that stuff that squirts twenty feet and carpet bomb them.

11. I went dual wielding with two different kinds.

Their main staging ground is now completely sterile. There are no survivors.

Now I'm going to interrogate one that tried to get away to find the location of their hidden base.

12. Gah!

[dixiegrrrrl]

10. Turns out the mud daubers don't sting unless you grab them

the paper wasps, on the other hand, can be aggressive.

We have 2 kinds of dauber nests on the front porch, and leave them be, as they kill black widow and other not so nice spiders.

In early winter we clear out the nests, after the daubers go where ever they go in cold weather.

14. Found the hidden nest. How I got it wasn't pretty.

Captured Wasp: The more you tighten your grip, NuclearDem, the more nests will slip through your fingers.

NuclearDem: Not after I demonstrate the full power of this spray can. In a way, you have chosen the nest that will be destroyed first. Since you are reluctant to provide me with the location of your hidden nest, I have chosen to test this pesticide's destructive power on your home nest of Bugderaan.

CW: No! Bugderaan is peaceful, we have no weap--

ND: I grow tired of asking this, so it will be the last time. Where is the hidden nest?

CW: ...porch rail. It's under the porch rail.

ND: Ah, I knew you could be reasonable. Continue with the operation.

CW: WHAT?

ND: You're far too trusting. The porch rail is too remote to make an effective demonstration, but don't worry. We will deal with your winged friends soon enough.


And just like that, millions of larvae suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.

16. In defense of the Empire, Bugderaan was -not- peaceful.

And every citizen on the planet was armed to the teeth. And angry. And, well...wasps.

So to the Empire for ridding us of a planet full of wasps.
