Wasps: You're Next!

    The fcuking pricks are back at long last, haven't seen one for over a year then yesterday I'm there lying on my bed and one lands on my desk. In one move I leaned up managed to grab a book and SMASH! I got the bollocks on the bollocks. I was lucky, it could have killed/tickled me ;] Then again today I was lying on my bed checking out Boards and what do ya have? A wasp flys in and lands, very Nam style, beside the crushed dead wasp. I got a bit freaked out and got out of there as quickly as possible. But I had to leave my big massive bowl of Wheetos behind.

    I'm going to arm myself with a few wasp sprays, and then that fcuker that's trapped in my room will get it, in the face.

    They're back, and they're coming for YOU!

    Normally I love all God's creatures, but seriously, someone was a teeny bit moody the day he invented those little b*stards! I mean, WTF? I watched one drown in my (untouched, grrr) orange juice for about half an hour on Friday. It was wrong. But so right...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 517 ✭✭✭greatgoal

    Whats the big deal? sure they are annoying if you are at a picnic but just leave some food aside for them and let them have at it.

    When i was an extra on King Arthur they were everywhere... rather than swipe at them and make them angry i would put icecream or something on my finger and let them land and eat it. Started with just one called fluffy and i named them fluffy1, fluffy2 and so on. Fun times.

    Be thankful it was not a Giant Hornet

    It gets very warm up in the attic, so i have to have the windows open all the time.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    I was in my room about half an hour ago, about to get in the shower and in the nip.

    When!!! A fcuking wasp lands beside me, so I went over to my guitar halfstack amp, plugged in my phone and blared Common People by Blur.

    That wasp won't be coming back =]


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,737 ✭✭✭BroomBurner


    I hate wasps, they are evil little killing machines that can fly.

    My first time driving, thought a wasp was in the car so started flailing about wildly, completely forgot to control the car. No driving allowed for a little while after that :(

    If I was that wasp I would have stuck around for the duration of the song! (Tis by Pulp though, not Blur).
    German wasps are fückin huge, was in my room chatting on skype at about 2 in the morning one night, window was open cos it was roasting, next thing i feel something on my back, swatted it away and look down...... HUGE FUPIN' WASP!!! Everybody else in the house was asleep as I let out the loudest "Fücking Hell" of my life. I eventually trapped it in a Burger King cup and dealt with it later. As time went on I tried lots of different methods for the final solution to the wasp problem.
    Best way to keep them away from you is to leave a small bit of something like Fanta Orange in a cup or open container by the open window, or somewhere in the room far away from you. The wasps will find this attractive and go investigate.
    Now the following options are open to you:
    1. Scissors (My personal favourite):cool:
    2. Pellet gun from point blank range (doesn't always work and can get messy)
    3. Good old can of Lynx and a lighter

    Sorted

    Beware of Backup


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,456 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    I don't see the big deal with wasps, they never go near me. Also there's nothing to be afraid of that a rolled up newspaper won't handle

    Did you not see the link to the Giant Hornet's?.. those feckers would easily disarm you, throw you to the ground and give you a good thrashing with the paper themselves... *from personal experience*

    How does that work then? They're not going to sit still while you set fire to their nads with the lighter. Do you use a lynx can with that lighter or do you just like destroying the evidence after you squash them?

    I have a phobia of the little sh1ts ever since I got stung on my face by two giant hornets in South Africa while playing hide and seek when I was 4. If one flies around me now I run around, waving my hands like a gobsh1te until it's gone

    They do settle eventually, but not always on something you can squash them against. (for example the lip of a mug) the lighter takes advantage of this... a quick blast to stun them and make them fall off, onto something more flat and solid where they can be squashed with mister cd case.
    I've used the lighter maybe twice... but it's a definite addition to my wasp-hunting tool belt. (*considers actually assembling such a tool belt*)
    If they don't hang around long enough for that to happen, and they piss off back out the same window they came in, then we're cool.
    It's the crazy dying ones towards the end of August/September I find stick around the longest and settle on things... bumping into lamps and falling all over the place like they're just home from the pub.

    I'm not the fukcing son of Rambow: I'm pretty sure I did scream like a little girl. Not that I can remember, that was over 20 years ago and all of my memories of that trip were wiped out by the horrible life-changing experience of getting stung by those black and amber bastards. Up the rebels this weekend. Revenge!


  • Registered Users Posts: 799 ✭✭✭Indie18


    i hate them little f***ers too but i heard some were that if you kill them that some how attracts more so your better off getting rid after you do them in.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    Hmmm there's a crushed one beside me now, malfcukas.

    One of the Kilkenny supporting, flying Limerickonians woke me up today. We didn't brawl though.
