Wasps

[JWAN]

I'll have to disagree with OP, FUCK Wasps, the bastards.

Wasps are a vital part of the ecosystem. They keep the bee population down. However, that doesn't mean i enjoy their presence, but i do appreciate them. Except the sparrow wasps of japan, where i fuckin live. Fuck those things.

BUT THE BEEEZ ARE DISAPPEARING!!!!! [http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/apr/21/bees-decline-uk-scientist-funding]

THIS IS MADNESS!!!

That made me lol. I absolutely agree, if they decide to plant themselves in my yard they can expect me to personally make a fuel air bomb and light their hive up like Hiroshima. I mow lawns for a living and read my previous post because I'm not going through that again.

I really like bees but wasps? Wasps are evil sods who when I was about 6 ganged up on me and 3 of them stung me on the knee at the same time, now I kill them whenever I can.

Im not a huge fan of the wasps, although it was fun watching leinster tear them a new one back last october....silly cipriani thinking he was good....

Hell all this stuff about wasps deliberately attacking people is nonsense, I always make a point of picking up wasps if they're trapped in a bus or car and I've never been stung once.

I was in my bedroom and one landed on my hand. Having always heard the "don't attack them and they will go away" lie i followed instructions. The wasp wandered about my hand for a minute before stinging me. My hand swole up and was quite painful for around 8 hours.
Yes, wasps will sometimes sting for pleasure unlike bee's who only do it as a last resort. I don't hate wasps but i will kill one in my vincinity as it poses a feasible risk.

I fucking hate wasps, and take pleasure in destoying them. That is all.

I love all of the hymenoptera one of my favouite categories of insect if not my most favourite

I am truly scared shitless of wasps, bees, and pretty much anything that looks or even sounds remotely like them. I would be pleased if they didn't exist because then I wouldn't have to freak out whenever a bug buzzed past my ear.

However, wasps have a niche in their ecosystem(s). They have evolved to do well in their situation, and have just as much of a right to live as I do.

If an insect is suffering, put it out of its misery. Otherwise, let it go about its business.

Wasps are fine by me, long as they build their nests in/on other people's houses. Had a few bad experiences with 'em, including one when I was small and sat down on an ancient chair with a nest under the cushion. I don't really hate them though. Just stay the fuck away from me and we're alright. Sting me and enjoy fiery insect death to you and your whole colony.

"Well they're just horrible scavengers" and "They're just useless".

Are you sure they were talking about Wasps and not WASPs?

I run a business
I mow lawns and do other yard work. You want to see what a hive of pissed off ground wasps look like? run a mower over their hive.

I once ran a hover mower over a hive. When I noticed I quickly moved it back over the exit they were coming out from. Oh, the sweet sounds of wasps getting slaughtered...
It didn't stop the surviviong ones from pestering me whenever I mow our lawn though...

 

[headshotcatcher]

They're so annoying, they always come when I have a barbecue, no I don't feel like eating meat with a wasp burrowed into it..

 

[Blackmagic1515]

I understand that wasps have their own important role to play in the eco-system. As long as they do it away from me it's fine. I don't hate them, but they do annoy the hell out of me. I've never been stung but I almost drank one once and now I never leave my drinks outside uncovered.

 

[ThaBenMan]

Eh, I think they're something of a pest and would be glad to be rid of them. They make nests under the eaves of my house in the summer, and I do my best to douse the bastards with spray to get rid of 'em.

 

[Pimppeter2]

People say to ignore them and they wont bother you, but they do. Psychologically

 

[Mullahgrrl]

How do you know she wasn't talking about White Anglo-Saxon Protestants?

Would be pretty hard to pick one up, in a bus no less, no?

They never have the correct change, and wasp insects pay only in fear

Or how about the Rock Band WASP?

some people find them objectional.

yea You can usually do that but when the other wasps come back and they smell their breatherin getting killed they get cranky.

I have ways of breaking their will
remember that nature is all about survival of the fittest and if the wasps want to live they should
A. not make a home in my yard
B. make their hive out of something less flammable.
