Wasp hive inside a portable toilet. Someone will be in for a good fright one day.

The 2 wasps seemed pretty docile but I was a bit hesitant about moving in closer.

And for anyone who wants rid of wasps,(not supporting killing them for no particular reason) Dawn mixed with water, spray and stomp. It works very fast. We had to clear out about 30 small nests that were in and around our educational birds pens as they were being constantly bothered. It was also a risk to those caring for the birds. It was a safe way to get rid of them and not risk using chemicals around the birds. Spray right on the hive/nest, when adults are at it. They will start to fall immediately and U can stomp them safely.

Good tid-bit to learn.  Thanks Frank!  We suddenly have a bit of a Hornet situation at the back of the yard.  Little black and white stingers are loving the grape jelly we be feeding the Orioles.  Put out a few traps, no idea where their nest is.  So if any come up hear the house while we BBQ'ing, might have to spray them and then stomp them.

A birth certificate shows we were born.  A death certificate shows we died.  Pictures show we live.
