I'm sitting here trying to avoid the stinging and throbbing sensation on my right scapula where a wasp stung me about 2 hours ago. This is the third sting we've had this year (twice for me already! Other sting was on my right foot where a wasp flew inside the house...I didn't see it and stepped next to it).
We're outside of Jacksonville, FL and have been here for 10+ years now, and never had such prolific wasps in our area. We live in the woods (literally inside the woods.) I found the nest that was built this morning (wasn't there yesterday) on the coop and hit it with the pressure washer. The birds were happy to have a treat when the nest fell into the coop (minus the parent wasps). Wasps are still hanging about but didn't get stung again, thank God.
Anyone else seeing an uptick in wasps in your area? We bought these traps and plan to put them in a couple areas that we've seen them the most. Anyone have anything similar they've used with luck?
