It's been a great year for wasps. Not if you're a wasp though! Numbers significantly down.

I know... wasps are all part of nature's cycle, but why the hell must they be so aggressive? Take bees. They're equally able to deliver unpleasant stings, and for some unlucky people, anaphylactic shock, possibly fatal. But leave bees alone and they'll leave you alone and get on with their lives.

But wasps come to get you. They want to make you suffer. They want whatever's on your plate.

Forgive me then, despite declining numbers, for gloating as they squirm in my honey trap.

    Yeah... We had to "Actively discourage" three queens from setting up shop in our shed. Although to be fair, I don't think our spider population liked the newcomers either.
