Wasps!

They are the biggest nuisance. The psychos of the insect world.

However, on my housing estate, we are over-run by ants every summer. Reckon it's like one of those schlock horror movies - the estate was build on a giant, sacred ant graveyard, or something.

Having said that, I was terrorised for a good half an hour by an ENORMOUS bee, the size of a golf ball, the other day. No idea how it got into the house, but the dozy bugger spent ages dashing itself against the walls and trying to fly in a wobbly way (concussion, I expect). It was as noisy as a lawn mower. Eventually I managed to guide it out of the house by wafting at it with a copy of The Times.

Bees. Gotta love em :-4

We get the 'skeeters, flying ants, regular ants, wasps, and *shudder* spiders. Every morning some damn, unnatural f*cked-up creepy nasty spider has spun it's web somewhere on my bike. I go grab the aerosol hairspray and a lighter and watch 'em fry. It really starts my day off nicely!! :yh_bigsmi
