Get rid of them, spare no expense.
When I was a kid I stepped on a yellow jacket nest, which was just a hole in the ground….before I knew what happened I was covered in them swarming and stinging me.
Damn. I can't imagine. I'm 100% certain that sucked, big time. I only got stung by the one, and it was pretty nasty.
Update:
Ever since they sprayed whatever they sprayed, into their entryway off of my deck, haven't seen a yellowjacket.
I think the front eave's paper wasps are gone, and wife hasn't heard the alleged wall bees again. Can't help but wonder if it was just the new outside a/c unit pipe buzzing against the wall?
Last year's "skinks" have been all but non-existent so far this year, after me trapping a total of 19 of them.
Now, it appears I may have a mole situation...WTF?
Wife's ready to move...
