[QUOTE="slsh, post: 552474, member: 8"] Thanks, Starbie. I've been sitting here today, trying to type with marshmallow finger, thinking that I really don't want to be the one to try to get rid of the darn nest or hive or whatever it's called. Two stings have been plenty, LOL. Thinking a call to an exterminator might be the smart thing to do. Much as I love husband, he's not terribly adept at most DIY stuff around the house - he'd probably fall into the nest, and if *I'm* complaining about discomfort, he would be demanding hospitalization and general anesthetic, LOL. Garbage is kept in closed garage with- lids on - been there done that with- possums and other various varmints. *Nothing* gets at our garbage. It's too late to do meat tenderizer/mud/tobacco/baking soda, right? Stings were over 48 hours ago. I actually did try to get in to see a dr today, but of course impossible to do. I was up half the night - no specific problem, aching finger but shouldn't have been enough to keep me up. Finger is still swollen tight, and I can't tell if I'm having sweats or hot flashes today - will feel really stupid if I go into urgent care and they tell me I'm just having hot flashes, LOL. I dunno - will see how things look this evening when husband gets home. Seriously - for such a small insect, they really are a pain in the ... finger and elbow. :rofl: [/QUOTE]
