There's actually words in mine, but good luck guessing what they are.

Screenshot the area where you type a comment, cropped out everything but the text box, droppered the color of it and wrote a sentence, saved it then posted.

Hi all

 

[Prinza the Hunter]

'ello, 'ello, what's goin' on 'ere, then?

 

[DeletedUser108047]

I was going to write in lemon juice on the screen... but it didn't work... now my screen is all sticky Definitely not holding a candle up behind it to read it

 

[Prinza the Hunter]

Mind the wasps, too.

 

[DeletedUser108047]

do you mean incidents? Have they escaped ?

 

[vikingraider]

Is it just where I live, or there not as many wasps about as there used to be?

 

[DeletedUser110195]

I have plenty of wasps here, occasionally one of them decides to commit suicide and get in arms reach of me. Crush it before it can try to sting you, and you don't get stung. Easy peasy. Also had some try establishing a nest inside my home. They got rewarded for their efforts with a spray of raid.

 

[Prinza the Hunter]

Not many wasps around this year, or last, I think. Are they in demise for the same reason as bees?

 

[joesoap]

wasps are far less annoying than the same stupid fly that keeps landing on my feet

 

[DeletedUser110195]

And that Jo, is why I keep a flyswatter handy(which I also use on the wasps if I can). The thing that really irks me are the god damned gnats that zip around you and on every surface, including the inside of my blasted coffee pot.

i got fed up having to clean up dead flies

 

[DeletedUser110195]

I think my strategy of tolerating the cellar spiders that've set up shop in all the corners is paying off, almost no pests, flying or otherwise these days. Of course my tolerance has limits and when they leave those corners and come near me, it's cullin' time!

 

[Prinza the Hunter]

Spider Hideouts in clear view, eh?

 

[DeletedUser110195]

Yeah they don't really hide out very well, I occasionally see them stupidly set up their trap in my bathroom sink, or even my shower...which prompts a squishing, or a drowning, depending on how cruel I feel like being at the moment.

 

[Prinza the Hunter]

I mostly trap them in my bath. There is a window over the bath which is slightly open most times and they try coming in and out the house through it - and fall into the bath, from which there is no escape.

Should this conversation be moved to the bugs section?
