Yellow Jackets

Yellow Jackets

Apparently yellow jackets find my Miata a perfect place for a nest. I
KNEW that I rolled both windows up, oops. Passenger side was down.

They had started on the rear view mirror, and this was going to be a
real problem.
Glad I didn't sit down into the car at night, I don't think that I would
have seen them from the overhead light.

Fast little buggers, the car only sat for two days.

Now I gotta wonder what else went in there, maybe I'll fog the car today
and kill 'em all, whatever might have taken residence in there.......

I often share my ride downtown in the morning with a bunch of mosquitos.
Must be some water pooled somewhere....

It seems like Dallas is getting more than its' fair share of rain lately.

I have also had those fun little guys once in a while. Living out by the
lake really gets the various critters to visit, and I park in a carport
that is not enclosed, so closing up the car is important.

There was a deer sleeping next to it the other morning......

Turning the floor vents on high and dropping the top gets the mosquitoes
out of there pretty fast once I get going.

Damn, Pat, I thought I had a problem with my Miata broadcasting state
wide signals, "PUBLIC PIDGEON BATHROOM". ;-)

What colour is your car? They like yellow and blue best - they tend to
ignore red, BRG and black.

For some obscure reason no-one can remember, they're called "jaspers" in
the English Midlands. "JASPER!" is far more dramatic than "WASP!"
