| | | Hate Wasp
Getting everything setup this morning for the party. Finish the large tent in the back when out of nowhere I got stung by two large wasp, one on the nipple and the other on the arm pit.
Let me tell you, plain and simple, getting stung on the nipple SUCKS. These were big wasp to, I've been stung plenty of times before but those two packed a wallop . Might have been mud dobbers? Bastards

| | | I am very proactive in spraying all eves and undelying areas monthly around the house (including bushes), as these wasps/hornets in Florida are quite aggressive. Be careful as they can make you quite sick in some cases .... |

And they seemed quite larger then normal wasp, which is why I thought it would have been a mud dobber but apparently those rarely sting even when aggravated but heard if they do it hurts like hell.
Just be glad we don't have the Giant Japanese Hornets here, now that is a bug you do not want to get stung by.

They must have replayed it, tell me that wasn't nutz. I watched it over a year ago, I remember they were doing interviews with people who had been stung by them (those that survived since one can kill a man), one had been shot before and said the sting was more painful then being shot.
If I saw a Japanese Giant Hornet I'd run screaming like a girl lol.
