Wasps mean nests. I am allergic. I would try and find the nest, then call someone to deal with it. Then no more wasps. I wouldn't want to take chances.

I kill them. If I could let it outside without killing it it would be great but I am usually just interested in getting it out of my face as soon as possible. I just dont know about wasps. I clearly do not want to get stung by them. They are not the
most dangerous of stinging insects, but they are still bad in terms of that.

If I can kill it YAY! Otherwise I try to suck it up in the vaccuum and then take the canister outside and dump it & hope the wasp was in with the rest of the items sucked up in the canister when you tossed it. Usually that's what works for me.

I try to kill those wasps. If I am not able to kill it I will open the door so that it can go outside. It is a very painful sting. Have a great day

Hi jugs...I do the same thing..kill them!
Who has the time to try and let them outside. I have a grandaughter that lives with us that is allergic to their sting. I have a epi pen I keep here to give her a shot right away if she does get stung.
I have always heard if you kill one then others will smell that you have killed that one and will come in a bunch. I don't know how true this is as it has never happened to me.

As an apartment manager of many years, I learned if a wasp is around there is a nest nearby, they don't go far from the nest like bees do. I used to kill them as there were many kids out playing. I had the exterminator over for another problem and he taught me to get rid of them all, by freezing the nest at night when they were all there! they have a spray that shoots a freezing liquid a great distance, I used it a few times over the years and it works good! tdemex
