Been pestered all day whilst sunbathing in the garden, lovely evening here in middle class suburbia, quaffing Champagne in the conservatory watching Godfather, not a fly or wasp in sight

Creature, are you from another planet?

Why do wasps suddenly appear, every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Why do fly's fall down from the sky, every time you walk by? Just like me, they long to be close to you. |

You were doing really well. You got "wasps" correct, then crashed and burned with "fly's." Never mind, a good try.

Wasps and flies go to night school to learn about punctuation.
Perhaps there is one near you Deptford. |

Quaffing champagne in the conservatory watching Godfather translates to Supping warm beer in the pigeon loft whilst flicking through my porn collection.

Wasps return to their nests at dusk, years ago you would put Arsenic powder in the entrance 30 minutes before dusk, as they return the fumes given off enters their breathing-abdomen and kills them,
Nowadays because of "patients care in the community", you cant buy this over the counter like you could 30 years ago. |

I've found two wasps sleeping in my fecking bed in the last couple of years, once we had a nest by kitchen window so assume it just got it's radar off a bit and thought feck it this will do, the other i reckon was caught out in a rainstorm and used my bed for a sleepover

By:
how do you kill them i have a hive at the side of the house
|
|
By:
dont kill them, they dont do any harm.

By:
Wasp's live in a nest not a hive, traditional method is to set fire to it after dusk when all the blighters are snoozing but beware the sentry wasp doesn't catch you or be prepared to get stung a lot. Best method is to phone Council or local Pest Control who will spray with some stuff that knocks em all down. The average mature wasp nest contains up to 4,000 (four thousand) wasps

But the porn collection is spot-on, right?

A Wasps nest can vary in size from 6 inches round to 24 inches round, in September when they get kicked out the nest, they will sting for no reason, only thing I have seen them eat are "daddy long legs".

Adult Wasps are Vegetarian, they only fetch meat back for the grubs which are carnivorous

Probably why they're so fking grumpy then, they'd calm right down after a nice hot-dog imo.

ant powder will kill em.
Had a nest in cavity wall entrance thro air brick a good blast with ant powder did the trick. |

Geoff is correct.
Don't waste money getting council or anyone else out to do it - they will charge you plenty to do something you can do. Had a wasps nest in the roofing cavity above the porch, could see them coming and going all day through a hole at the side. Spent £2-3 on some wasp killer powder, went out at night when their activity is lowest, squirted a few puffs of powder into the hole and then legged it, fearing an outpouring of angry wasps. No such problem, virtually no response so thought it hadn't worked, but next day and since then no sign of any wasps. Job done in minutes for £3. |

I stand corrected Slippy but like Kenny I note you don't discount the porn.
 We keep near finished jam jars three quarters filled with water at the back door. The remnants of the jam attracts them and the water drowns them. Kill them all I say. |
