Careful...I Could Sting

Our home is located in the center of the Paper Wasp Universe. There is hardly a direction that I look that I don't see some nearby. I typically get tagged a time or two by them each year and it is never any fun.

This one got into the house which did not go well for it for I am a pro at dispatching them by patiently waiting for them to land and placing a bottle over them and then it's a short trip to the kill-jar and a staged focus stacking photo session from there.

Those that are less cooperative get the old "wack" with the fly swatter and the traditional trash can burial.

Thanks, these buggers are among those that I don't mind dispatching when they are around or in the house.
