Wasps around my house are terrible this time of year. Usually I just stay inside when they're out but this year another idea came to mind.
The wasps like to lay in that 90* corner where the rafters meet the rim joists so I light them up with a flashlight and wack them with a paintball gun. Started 4 days ago and the wasp population is reduced by about 80% plus it's really fun to see them splatter and die. It actually feels a little bit like hunting but I don't have to leave my land.

I thought this would be a White Anglo Saxon Protestant thread. Guess not. I'll check in anyway.

You could get a marlin garden gun (smooth bore .22) and shoot bird shot at the insects
We use that (or an old 22 H&R revolver) to shoot bore bees. They are a menace to log homes. It is (or used to be) cheaper than emptying a bunch of Raid at them, and it's more fun. Live in a very rural area so the shooting is not an issue. |
