Insects worse this year? Wasps and horseflys specifically

[Disoblige]

Wasp spray trigger on drone would be badass.

What happened to the bundle up in winter wear and plastic bag them in the evening method?
Or tiger torch depending on placement.

I got my tiger torch out but we figured the treee might go up... neighbour sprayed them with the stuff then got in his ski gear and bagged them haha

I would always just spray them at night when they are in and calmer. Never had an issue.

[dirtsniffer]

Im thinking about leaving them alone unless they bother us or the neighbors. Could be good to have a big nest in the tree for the next few years

Yeah if it's in a tree a tiger torch can easily end your whole house.

Ants. Holy shit, ants! There was an anthill out front, so I put an icing sugar/borax mixture out and they were gone soon after. Then some kid came door-to-door with a pest control plan. I declined. Next week trying to paint the fence, I thought they might carry me away. Hmm maybe saleskid released a few thousand and will be back....

I haven't noticed the wasps... but ants... man do I relate to this 100%.

I feel like I've tackled at least 10 ant hills throughout the front and back yard this year.

Living in Strathmore I'll say I haven't seen any increase in wasps or such.. but I do see a lot more butterflies.

But the one thing I'll say is that if you think you have an ant problem come out here.

Pretty sure this City was colonized on a damn ants nest from hell.

I had this scenario happen a few weeks ago. Ended up with two different kinds of ants.

Drone with flamethrower required.

“Don’t go out in the middle of the night and think about [using] spray foam or caulking or whatever,” Martin said. “We’ve had a couple calls this week already with people sealing the wasps in their house and waking up overnight with wasps chewing through their ceiling.”

Did this exact thing few years back but instead they started invading the house and the dead wasps were piling up everywhere.
Got an exterminator in and found this in the basement joints.

Sometimes you're just better to cut your losses...

Calgary man was taken to hospital with serious burns after attempting to get rid of a wasp nest with gasoline.

Which one of you was this?

[ShermanEF9]

This thread stresses me out. I'm allergic to wasps, and this is my nightmare.
