Every summer wasps make similar little nests, smaller than my fist and hanging from the underside of the porch roof. The rarely bother us -- I have been stung when I inadvertently put a hand down on a wasp who was promenading along the railing. I'll enjoy watching these two.<br /><br />Judy B -- we have used the kerosene/fire treatment on yellow jacket nests in the ground that are likely to get walked over. Those critters are really mean.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-47956622760904335552012-05-08T16:48:41.138-04:002012-05-08T16:48:41.138-04:00Just catching up - sorry to hear you had a cold. ...Just catching up - sorry to hear you had a cold. hope you're much better now. You did well to feel like clearing closets out amidst the sniffles. <br />Isn't that wasps' nest a lovely structure? Whether you like the beasts or not, it's some clever feat that they can make that.

It appears that the nests are being built up, instead of the usual down. I've never seen that before.

It made me remember my grandfather doing battle with the waspers and yeller jackets. He really hated them. Sometimes he would pour kerosene on the nest and set the nest afire after dark.
