I *hate* wasps, especially if one of these f-ers flies inside. We had a wasp nest when I lived in London in the roof space of the flat I lived in and they kept finding their way in in the bathroom somewhere. Not great when you're trying to go for a whizz in the middle of the night in the dark and then hearing bzzzzz around you.
We never did manage to get rid of the since the only way to get into that part of roof space was through the er.... roof. The attic entrance in the communal hall seems to have been bricked off from that particular area.
I don't mind bees - my dad has a few bee hives, so I am used to them and they are nowhere near as nasty as wasps. I did get 'grazed' by a bumble bee the other week while cutting grass and it did sting for a bit but nothing bad. I say "grazed" because it didn't leave a sting.
At our old house mum used to grow Passion flowers, all over the side of the house.
Every year another best would pop up.
It stopped being fun, when we had to pay the council to come out and "control" it, as the house was a council house.
Next door didn't like bees or wasps, so she put a complaint in about it.
Just as soon as one nest would come down, another would pop up.
At the time of moving her out from that house, we counted 5 nests in the Passion flower.
