Wasps and houseflies

[8cuttlefish8]

Bloody wasps lol :D.

Hmmm I might try those idears there mate, could you describe the wasp bag, it was just inflated and hung? Lovely views bro!

[Swipe650]

Yep, just a small white paper bag inflated and pinned to a wall or tree.

That house fly deterrent sounds a bit suspect. Is there any chanting involved as well? ; )

Kidding aside, I suppose it's worth a try. Only costs a few pennies, and you never know!

(might attract wasps, though).

I did a bit of googling and some people swear by it. I'll have to give it a go at the weekend. So far I've not had any wasps inside the house or seen any in my garden. I think my parents must have a nest close by.

Flies are like cockroaches, you cannot really get rid of them. As for wasps, I agree with fud, that burning the nest is a start. Great ride as always, thanks.

Thanks Mr C. I've had to modify my bicycle route due to a wasp nest. I drive past it every day in the car and make sure I keep the windows closed.

When I find a wasp nest, I burn it. It seems to work.

Not sure what to do about flies though.

I'll have to dig my flamer thrower out. My dad reckons they get drunk on fruit this time of year and it sends them crazy.

[Fudmottin]

Yellow Jackets are the worst of the wasps. They are just plain mean. Plus they will nest just about anywhere, including in the dirt.

Mowing over a yellow jacket nest is not an experience you want to have.

I know Fud. I got stung by one descending a mountain in North Carolina. My leg blew up double the size and it itched for days after. Very nasty indeed.

[brotherblonde]

Well thanks, S. :)Sorry can't help you with the deterrents.

[Swipe650]

No problem BB. Glad to hear you are well :)

[AnotherCopierOfM13]

I'm alright thanks, I usually find the best way to get rid of wasps is dynamite but it can devalue you property quite a bit. Worth a try though?

[Swipe650]

Good tip, I think I'll try it on my work's canteen patio first :)

[HondaMedic]

Man, that road is narrow! Looks like a fun ride!

[Swipe650]

Yep, they are what are known as B roads over here. They really the best roads to ride for my bike but they can be a bit bumpy in places.

[pedaway]

I hate wasps. So, so, so much.

[Swipe650]

Me too. They serve no purpose at all

Hey, it's going ok mate, cheers. (lol you said hi hows it going at the start) Can you ride up the welsh mountines in the video?

[Swipe650]

:) I have a few vids riding through them on my live video page but I mostly just vlog locally
