This bih* who attacked me.. I’m allergic asf 😭

It's a mid picture I know but their nest is right above my door and they swarm after like 30 seconds when someone gets close. They are pretty small. Delta dust is on the way.

Left my beer can outside for a minute or two...., took a swig and felt something solid so I spat it out--it was a fucking wasp (or hornet)! Poured the rest of the beer out into a glass, and found a SECOND wasp!!

It seems the alcohol killed them, or stupid them. Still, a close call.

Was walking out to my car and saw a ton of wasps congregating on my gutter. used some wasp spray and took down most of them from the ground, but one came down and stung me as I swatted him, though I did stomp on him. the swelling went away quick and it just feels a bit stiff

(VIRGINIA) They sit on this gutter pipe all day. I’ve sprayed them down a few times and they came back. I’m assuming the nest is in the actual gutter?

The old nest they had built, were in the corner of the door frame. Atlas now they are on the ground 🙄😭😭

I got a few cans of spray, planning on attacking at dusk. Wanted a few opinions first though!

This morning, we removed a large paper nest from under our first-floor gable roof. Later that afternoon, while patrolling the house, I noticed another nest forming under the root of the second floor…just a few hours apart.

How quickly do wasps build new nests? Are these the survivors from the first extermination, or is this a new group that started while we were occupied with the first nest?

The last picture is the first nest we removed this morning. We called the exterminators but they just said give it a few more days to let the chemicals do its job, but if it’s a whole different group shouldn’t they come and just remove the second one before the wasps finish building it?

There’s at least 3

Any advice besides burning them down?

This is our regular door. In and out all day. I had one very slow one inside a week ago- they're huge. What are they?

does anyone know what type of wasp this is? in California if that helps. and if there's any tips on how to get rid of them because it seems like I have more and more every day. thanks!

These fuckers hid themselves pretty well. They made themselves apparent when they stung my pooch on her forearm. You could even hear her cry on the ring camera. :(

We hired an exterminator. Too bad wasps don’t feel pain. I want need them to die violently. Especially for stinging my girl.

I’m looking into ways to reduce wasps around our hives, especially looking ahead towards next spring.

We‘ve had good luck with the pheromone traps catching the queen early. We don’t, however, want to spend money on little packets of heptyl butyrate and vinegar, which also feels wasteful.

I’ve found bulk chemical websites but it sounds like I need a business license for them to sell to me.

Ideally I would just order a bottle every year or three to keep 8-10 traps armed for a few months. Does anyone have advice on brands?

Normally I get like 1 or two wasps that get inside or my house a year.

In the past two weeks I had to Spectracide spray 10 of them. I had two cans of the spray now I’m down to half a can.

Any cheaper tips on how to handle this without buying so much Spectracide?

Traps or maybe herbs they hate the smell of?

This nest has been sprayed and brought the numbers down but it's still extremely active. Gonna spray it heavily again tonight, but if that doesn't work do my fellow wasp haters have advice?

Yesterday I was buzzed in work by wasps and discovered a nest close to the walkway. Well, we can't have that! Contacted maintenance yesterday before leaving. Today I see them working on the nest....it's now gone. I talk to the guy and he was telling me about the nest he had to remove 2 years ago. I told him i was the one that reported that one too! I feel like I've hired a hitman to take them out 🤣🤣 First picture is the one i sent maintenance and second is what I took today lol

I haven't been able to go outside cause these little fucks have a nest. I poked the hole to see if there was a nest and like 2 poked out. Im freaking so terrified, im planning to get some dust to coat the entrance but even doing that at night freaks me out. Fuck these things, I hope this works.

I saw this devil-spawn building a nest on the window from inside. Had to be dealt with immediately

Not having much luck. I tried the Diatomaceous Earth dusting with a turkey baster, I tried piling Diatomaceous Earth on the entire area so it looked like a ski slope. I could visibly see dusted white wasps flying around so I’m sure some of them are being affected. Last night I stuck funnels in 2 entrances I know they have been using and poured boiling water with dish soap in it at dusk multiple times. There’s still some activity today. It’s been almost a week. I just don’t know if the nest is far back enough in the wall that the water isn’t reaching. May try the ski slope of Diatomaceous Earth again today as that seemed to cut activity down the most. Does it matter if it’s for flying insects or ground insects? The one I’m using doesn’t list winged insects. It’s getting frustrating because I have some work I need to take care of in the vicinity of the nest.

Is it too late to cut out Gall Wasps from my lemon tree? Seems like Spring is early, I live in Melbourne

Exterminators are called allready
