Have a smooth, happy day....

Try this: fill a small brown paper bag up with paper or plastic bags and hang it near their nests. They think that it is a hornets nest and will avoid the area. It particularly takes care of wood borers.This ol' board is slowing down for the summer.
A fairly slow day for me, working from home.
Continue to battle with a horde of small wasps with sharp stingers -- at least according to my wife who has been hit twice and swelled up both times.
They seem to be everywhere -- I've knocked down a half dozen small nests under my porch after dousing them with poison spray. And I must have shot down two hundred out of the air with this foamy spray my wife bought, but I don't think you can beat them by killing them retail. That theory hasn't worked from the Chosin Reservoir to Khe Sanh to Fallujah. It looks like they've crawled or gnawed into a little seam between my porch and a new door I had installed into the house. I was going to seal that up with caulk, but I read that was a bad idea, that they would do more damage escaping from the tomb...Ah well. I'm very good at ignoring problems until they go away. We'll have a deep freeze here in 90 days or so. That'll take care of it.
Hope you all manage to ignore all your problems.
