Your cat sneezes at wasps?
How odd.

I find a rolled up newspaper works as an efficient waspicide.

And it's nice and sunny up here. The sunset was particularly nice last night too, as the sky was free of contrails, had lots of dust to make it red, and the moon, Venus and Mercury were lined up nicely.

It was great
I tried to take photos but they didn't turn out too well.

Wasps are pretty slow, as flying insects go. Wait until it's buzzing around a window, then flatten it with the newspaper.

And when you squash them it attracts more!

we're such pussies
we're like 500x their size and being stung by a wasp doesn't even hurt that much

You are!

I would totally die in Battle Royale
I would have been the fat kid who panics within the first four minutes and accidentally crossbows the nearest person
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 16 Apr 2010, 8:54, Reply)

Pish!
It just means there's one fewer wasp to get worried about.

Jam attracts wasps. Dead wasps don't.

They do
It was on Newsround
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 16 Apr 2010, 8:50, Reply)

Ach
they're just trying to be goody goody and stop kids from killing wasps. And if they encouraged it, some kids would be stung and tell their mums that "Newsround told me to do it", then the BBC would be in trouble.

Wasp stings are a bit painful, but not that bad. I've been stung a few times. The worst one was by a queen wasp, on my big toe!

I'm telling you
That milkshake brings all the wasps to the yard.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 16 Apr 2010, 8:55, Reply)

Now this
is very true.

I remember sitting in a beer garden outside a Cambridge pub many years ago, trapping wasps. We had four of them buzzing angrily under empty pint glasses when we left. A tad unfair on the bar staff, to be honest!
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Fri 16 Apr 2010, 8:57, Reply)

I am bar staff in my spare time
I hate you
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 16 Apr 2010, 8:59, Reply)

It was a long time back
when I was young and silly. I wouldn't do that now.

Unless I was perhaps in a pub in Liverpool where Gary the barmaid was afraid of wasps... :-)

Wasp stings have pheremones which attract nearby wasps and make them aggressive.

I don't dare trying to twat wasps
because there's a 90% chance I'll miss and then it'll just be pissed off
