what attracts wasps?!? What makes them go away? I am so Fuc*kin scared of wasps!!?

Question

i saw one on the porch and ran inside!! I went back out and it was on the door!! WHAT DO I DO I CANT GO OUTSIDE ANYMORE!!

Answer 1

this particular wasp was maybe the guard on duty, they are amazingly clever. Try to learn to respect them rather than fear them and it would help.

i recall having a nest of them at our cottage and i tied a clotheesline to something and started hanging something on it. part of the clothesline went across their territory, their airspace. so the guard would fly right along the clothesline to the place where it was tied (far away, clearly outside their airspace) it would touch the knot with its antenas, inspect it very closely and it actually made clear attempts to untie it. then it got back to its post. whenever i crossed the invisible border, it would attack - not bite, just repeatedly bump the little head into me and even chase me outside their terrtory. this was rather disturbing, so i retreated and kept my distance and the wasp was calm. but i wanted to use the full lenght of the clothesline and as i was bumped into again, i made the wasp follow me in the house by provoking it a little and i locked it inside. i had some time then to work undisturbed, but after a couple of minutes they noticed the absence and another guard was put into service. this shows more system, purposefullness and organization than our Public Healthcare system, im afraid. Then they made a nest in the attic (or loft u call it) because stupid me, i left the window open one day. I closed the window. the cute creatures found it uncomfortable to have to fly through the narrow spaces between roof tiles, so they gradually chewed up their nest and took it away inside threir bellies to build it back elsewhere. This adn other encounters with them taught me to respect them. They were here before us, anyway. And maybe they will be here after us as well. Whenever i got a sting (couple of times in my lifetime) it was my own fault, not their meaniness.

i mean of course behave sensibly - if u provoke them by wavin your hands at them , u are askiing for it, if u eat fruit in a careless manner when plenty of wasps are around u are asking for a life threatening sting in the tongue, if there is a baby in a pram left without somebody directly watching it, it is a good idea to fix a insect net over the pram - who wants even a fly crawlin into the nose of a baby? yeah, u would wish to check the trash bin in summer if it is not oozing something sweet, and so on. But u cannot possibly kill all wasps, so anyway u need to be able to cope with them, the sooner u start, the better. If u happen to be allergic, it is twice more important. Fear does u no good. Start with watching a single wasp how it behaves, moves around - u will soon see it is minding its own business and will continue so until u mess with it.

How To Attract Wasps

Answer 3

Wasps tend to be attract to bright colors and fast movement. Together, these are a good recipe for being stunk.

If you know that you will be around a wasp nest, wear light colored clothes, whites and tans. Additionally, if a wasp approaches, stand still or move away slowly and smoothly. The wasp will likely be attracted to because of the salt on your skin, but they will leave. Finally, if you are stunk, move away from the area rapidly and wash the sting. Wasps tend to leave a chemical marker with the sting that aggressively agitates other wasps. Fortunately, wasps will not leave the stinger in you like a honeybee.

Have fun.

Answer 5

They are attracted to sweets mostly, to find a source of sugar. They are also always looking for protein sources. That's why they are always buzzing around food left outside and garbage cans. Also why they are attracted to soda and why you should check your open soda cans left outside before taking a drink out of them. Best way to keep them away is to keep food containers closed outside and just leave them alone and don't bother them if they are around.

Answer 6

If you knock the nest onto the ground, they won't bother you, but if you disturb the nest and it stays in place, they will come after you. Use a long stick. They can sense fear, and are attracted by motion.
