The pestilence of the earth! Arrggg!

WASPS! They serve no useful purpose other than being the 'pestilence' of the Earth! How dare they bite our sweet cherub Adelaide! Bad! Naughty! Wasps! Grrrr! Adelaide got '4' wasp bites...one her left thigh, two on her right thigh and one her left index finger. I failed to get a picture of her screaming, crying face....but I think you can use your imagination! Anyone that ever been bit by a wasp knows how bad it hurts and burns and stings all at the same time! :o(







Poor Lisa, she does not fair well when her babies are hurt, etc. I do wish I had some household ammonia or meat tenderizer. We sufficed with a baking soda paste, then that wonderful herbal aid cream and then a ice pack. Grandpa gave her a blessing too! It was just at lunchtime and close to nap time for Adelaide but I had Lisa keep her up for one hour to be safe. If she was going to have any type of reaction it would have happened the first 15 minutes. Twenty minutes later she was her 'little busy self' as if nothing happened.
When I finished up the first aid, I went out front just past my front door and to the right where I have a small flower bed and there sitting nice a sassy were two wasps. Not for long! They were dead in a few seconds as I hit them with wasp spray! That'll teach them! I keep it sprayed for nests but these two snuck in and now they'll not be bothering anyone ever again!
