    Murder hornets and yellow jackets are a royal PITA. I just had to Raid a paper wasp nest that was setup on our BBQ grill last week! Not fun.

    Honeybees only sting as a last resort (which is usually fatal for them). Wasps and hornets on the other hand,can sting repeatedly.

    Looks like some of the new cars front ends. Wasps, my ultimate nemesis. Any work outdoors usually involved loud noises that wasps don't like, miserable ba$tards, honey bees on the contrary, get a bad rap from those ba$tard wasps, and my mom used to pet bumble bees in her garden. This one pictured is looking for a windshield to run into.:biggrin_2559:, Hate bugs, luckily, the hills here have very few bugs of any kind, a welcome relief from the upper Midwest.

    Driver just stopped next to me for a couple minutes and the honey bees are escaping.

    They weren’t all under the netting!

    He’s gone now but left a bunch of passengers behind.
