Sunny and warm ....
9th July 2025 (Wednesday) 08.30 .... it's a lovely sunny morning; more like summer time! Iain has been spraying the wasps nest with Rentokil spray; the wasps are few in number now. I'll give them another spray tomorrow. I'm not keen on killing hard working insects but wasps can be a pain (literally) in the Autumn. So they must go. I always think of a single wasp in New Zealand when I do this. 'M' had a big underground nest in the garden and they were starting to annoy us. We went to the garage and got half a bottle of petrol. Then... Last thing at night you (take the cork off the bottle) push the upturned bottle into the nest entrance then seal it with earth. Just as I was about to shove the bottle into the nest entrance, the single wasp that think about, went into the nest. It would have died anyway, because the petrol fumes killed off...
