So I can certainly relate to poor Bandit's situation! I hate wasps; my mom says it is because I got stung as a baby.

Tough dogs, those heelers. <br />We have a plethora of wasps here this year- waaaay too many! My stud pen has a square tubing panel gate, and the hole where I slide the gate latch has wasps crawling in and out. We sprayed brake cleen in it, worked for a while but I noticed the other day they were back. We have a lot of nests to clean out of the woodshed before we load it up with out winter's wood.

I j...Poor Bandit...give her an extra snack for me! I just hate seeing my pets hurt. It is about as bad a sick child. As for bees and wasps...I have not noticed a large number of them but I have been no where to notice. That does not sound fun at all to get stung in the neck!<br /><br />Believe it or not, there used to be a wasp that built in the apple trees...always the Gala. And no, they were not a hornet...not even half the size of a hornet. Not a lot bigger than a yellow jacket...this one year one stung me on the back of my hand, my hand stayed swollen for days, and it hurt clear up my arm almost to my elbow...just right down in the bone. I have been stung by bees, yellow jacktets, other wasps, and a hornet one time...never a bumble bee...but of all those, that sting is the worst I ever had.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015780995837712115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4337291556128532535.post-4481408738850976812013-09-04T19:10:38.285-07:002013-09-04T19:10:38.285-07:00The poor puppy.
