There always is an "expert" around here so...does anyone know anything about wasps? We had a white mailbox where the post fit
over a stake of wood that had a flat surface where the actual box
was attached. Somebody (husband??) hit the mailbox with the car so it
was a little tilted and nobody could ever get it completely straight. Meanwhile.....wasps would fly around the box. We used
wasp spray (distance spray can) and saturated the whole thing.
Not. I called the exterminators. Not. Called again. Not.
Meanwhile the box began to rust so I ordered a new one.
New post does NOT use wood insert. Handyman dug deep hole (no
sign of bugs), poured concrete for metal support post. Installed
whole thing including a nifty looking plate on top of the box that has "glow in the dark" numbers. :smile:
Guess what. This is the 2nd day and husband tells me "I opened the box for the mail and there were five or six wasps there!"
The old stake/box is about four feet away as the trash truck is due this week. The old and the new are white. The new one is
installed where the old one is. What to hay??
How do I get permanently rid of the wasps? Help. DDD
