In the spirit of the world cup: 1 Qwaider:Wasps 0

I noticed a small protrusion close to the top of a window. Since it was very close to the roof of my house it has gone unnoticed for few weeks (months?)

I decided I'm not going to take any chances. Although I seldom open this window in the winter. Summer is here and I can't take any chances

I monitored the thing using my zoom lens (it was at least 4 meters high and would require a ladder to get a closer look)

There was no doubt. It looked like a small bee cones. Hmm bees? building a home on my window?

Got the ladder, and without opening the window got closer. This doesn't look like a bee, it's much larger. And the cones look disgusting and look like papyrus. So googling around, Ah-ha, this is a wasp nest. PANIC! I HAVE A WASP NEST! oh my god! what am I going to do. Wasps are more aggressive than bees. And in big numbers can be very scary. (not to mention painful and possibly deadly)

So I call a bunch of friends to come help me take it off. No one is available, a week later, still no one to help. Time to do it myself

Bought a ladder, and prepared for the attack on the "Wasp nest"

The night before, I flexed my Multi-Ladder got up with a pesticide, and sprayed the nest. Killing the BIG ugly wasp protecting it. Not to take any chances. I waited till the next day.

I got my gloves, a big Ziploc bag Climbed up and got the nest off! Woof, that's a relief!
