Hello Everyone, I am very allergic to wasps and so dread the summer months. With the excessive heat I thought that there would be a lot of wasps about, but fortunately so far, fingers crossed, I have not seen many. Has anybody been bothered with them this year?

Oh, and I've not seen so many this year either.

No time for wasps(or hornets if I can tell them apart)
plenty of time for bees though.
A wasp and I presume hornets know they can sting several times
and still sting to sting another day.
Bees know once they have stung its off to the bee hive in heaven.
