Wasp Nearly Got Me-Look Out This Week!

I panicked and started to flail my arms madly. My heart instantly was racing and I felt trapped. Instantly wasp control became my top priority for survival.

Wish I Had Wasp Control For My Truck!

There I was on Wednesday just minding my own business about to leave the Home Depot parking lot. The sun was shining for what seemed like the first time this entire Spring.

I had started my Bug Zapper service truck and rolled down the window to take in some of the warmth and smells of spring. To my horror, out of nowhere came a wasp buzzing up to my open window.

He was so close to my face that I could see his angry eyes twitching. He looked MAD and I just had this awful feeling that he had only paused a moment to decide where to stab that awful harpoon stinger deep into me.

I could feel those beady insect eyes (however many he had) boring in as he picked his target. Was it going to be my arm, hand or face?

I’d already put on my seatbelt so I was a sitting duck…

In a frenzie and mostly out of a pure adrenaline rush I failed my arms as the beast effortlessly buzzed around them faster and faster. It was kind of like when a heat sensor missile looks coordinates on you and you know you’re a goner.

At that moment I’m just a little sheepish to say I lost it. All my pest control training went out the window and I panicked.

I’m so used to living without wasps at my home (I’d shut off my water before doing without pest control at my house) that I’d forgotten the dread and terror wasps can inflict on their victims.

With some beautiful sunny days predicted for next week, here are five tips to help you protect yourself.
