I pulled the tarp off my 67 to start work on it, and about 20 wasps flew out to greet me.

seems like the forgot the smack down that I gave them last year. I own the darn car. I paid for it and have the title, now I just need them to realize it.

I just have to remember to not use the portable propane blow torch on thier raid soaked nest when there is no water around. :doh:

Are these the dangling leg types or those big black and white rascals that build the big egg shaped paper nests ? Here in NC, in the "Hornets Nest" region as its called, I think they arose from some mutated strain of backwater delinquent hornets. Theyll chase you. Hordes of them. When they catch you theyll poke more holes in you than Tupac at a stoplight. When I was a kid, I was climbing a tree, one (thank GOD it was only one) got on my hand and started walking.. And stinging.. I couldnt let go, so he nailed me about 4 times before I could grab another branch and escape. I came back madder than , well, a hornet :rlaugh: . Except I had 2 cans of Hornet killer. I only smoked 2, there were more (it was a fig tree, and they were getting lunch.) but in reality I just wanted to look at one. I kept the 2 little hornet carcasses for a few weeks. If you ever get a chance to see a dead hornet, the black and white kind that look "armored", they are truly fascinating. Beautiful in every way. In retrospect I regret killing those 2 ,I was in their lunch tree. But hey, I was a kid.
