Killer wasps in the house

    Hi,

    I'm not sure if this is the right forum. I am new to boards. Anyway, in the last two weeks I have found two big dying wasps crawling on the floor in my house. It's not a big house and I just can't figure out where they might be getting in...

    It's freaking me out...does anyone know if I need to do anything or could there be a nest or something somewhere?

    You could try telling them to buzz off

    You wouldn't think they'd be about this time of year.
    Then again we had an invasion of houseflies for a week after christmas but they just disappeared afterwards.

    Worlds gone mad :eek:

    Convert them to Catholicism and they will be saved!

    I've not seen any wasps or flys so far this year.. they're most likely mutants that turn you into paralysed zombie growth vehicles.. like these

    thanks for the advice...if you do call in the experts will they check surrounding areas outiside or just your own garden as I'm in terraced house? The nest could be anywhere around..

    oh and yeah il ask them to buzz off too!

    I'd imagine they prefer staying Protestant.

    Have you considered you might be freaking the wasps out, asking questions like this?

    And yes, you came to just the right forum.

    Oh, it slipped me by.
    Glad I didn't see your post beforehand. The pressure would have been enormous to handle. I might have cracked under the strain.
    Really looking forward to your 10,000th now.

    Maybe the toilet snakes opened the door for them.
