A welcome for the wasps.....:o)

LOL just the Job Janey :)

they are needed this week lol loads of wasps here

yes here to, all drinking out of my water feature,, i just run lol

lol sounds like here Sandra, i fill up the water for the birds and next thing i know its like a meeting place for wasps

Great idea.

exactly eileen, they are a pain in the bum

Ooh...not literally San....I hope! Lol......yes aren't they pests, just when you want to sit and enjoy your garden the little blighters won't leave you alone......:o(

Did you put Jam in it Janey ... last thursday we had a cream tea in a little cafe courtyard , very pretty until the wasps descended we were surrounded , it was frightening ...... you had to be very careful not to eat them on the jam ............

lol janey, no not yet he he .must get some of those, they look pretty to. poor you amy, doesnt it spoil the relaxed moment

That looks attractive Janey does it work!

Is it to feed them or to kill them ?

i think they die happy hywel, like the jam jar my nan use to leave by the door they got in but couldnt get out again

lol I remember doing that.

Oh, Amy, that's awful.......I put honey and water in it...the base is like a convex shape which goes up to a hole where the wasps fly in for their treats......they don't seem to be able to fly out though, I don't know why, there are a few in now, you can put jam or honey, anything sweet, it also stands on the table if you want. We went over to Beverley at the weekend and I got it from the Oxfam shop there......I've seen them at Garden Centres though. I bet there on Ebay too....:o)

Yes they're to kill them Hywel, but they die happy like San says...Lol!

Wouldnt fancy the job of cleaning it out Jane uggggggggg

Nice trap, we put apples in with water, when it goes mushy, the wasps love it and die very happy. Apparently apples works best, we tried all kinds of fruit. A tip from one of our newspaper gurus here in CDN. Yes it is a mess to clean out. A friend drank her cider & did not see one crawl in.....................guess what>>..........yup very chubby cheeked, I told her NOT to keep the bottle mouth open, did she listen................noooooooooo. I am paranoid about pop cans, beer, cider bottles in summer, just in case one sneaks in & then zap, gets kissed by one.

Wow...that's a terrible story Doon, it reminds me of Four Weddings and a Funeral, when Hugh Grant pics up a can from a table to have a swig and someone has popped a fag end in it..Lol! I'll try the apples and water.....

Good girl Janey, I did not see that one, was it good? I like HG as well, funnnnyyy man, likeable.

Yep...it was a girl's film...but sooooo funny, I think he's great!

I do too, such a gentle face & manner.

This year we have not seen any wasps, not that I mind, it has been a strange year weather wise. I do like your idea though.

We've had lots here on the east side Dd..... Yep strange weather....very hot yesterday but today cloudbursts and a cold wind!......:o(

Very windy here, still waiting for heatwave promised this weekend!!!

Mmmmm.......yes, know what you mean......feels like backend...as my Mum says...:o)
