    Default First wasps

    My DH noticed that he hadn't seen any wasps yet this year. I am sat outside near my log pile and their are loads munching away at the logs. Another outdoor danger!!

    Where are you? I had one in my shed phoned a lovely man (company) he came first thing next morning and only charged £40... he even posed for pictures for our bug theme :-)
    My friend asked him about one she has underground in her garden he advised waiting until night and squirting ant powder into the hole they were using??
