Hope your family is not affected though from the photos there's not too much to burn there. <br />Cheers<br />HelenHelsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136273834165751276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-77894294520535921812011-02-08T10:13:15.636+11:002011-02-08T10:13:15.636+11:00Oh Anne, hope the pain is starting to settle now.....Oh Anne, hope the pain is starting to settle now...You poor thing!<br /><br />Best thing I think, destroying the nest! as I hear they can also attack on mass, and that can be very, very serious!Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212441978380885401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-75289204244961261592011-02-08T04:43:52.289+11:002011-02-08T04:43:52.289+11:00Our british ones are bad, but they are not as agre...Our british ones are bad, but they are not as agressive as the european ones, which are bigger. We had a nest of europeans in our roof last year. Like you, I hate destroying anything, but the nest's location was making coexistence impossible. Only upside of a nest of wasps is that they are good at eating the caterpillars and other grubs that like my cabbages.<br /><br />I've not heard of the onion or dung treatment, but we always say vinegar for wasps and bicarbonate of soda for bees. Hope you don't have the problem again and your hand is better soon.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12458243149834190714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-18266051119046219012011-02-07T22:08:29.946+11:002011-02-07T22:08:29.946+11:00Hey Anne, hope all is well now.

Sounded like a very painful encounter.<br />They are such a nuisance, they usually appear here around March, but with all the rain I wonder if we will see many. I have been told they make nests in creek banks and this year they would've been flooded.<br />Hope the rain you received didn't cause any problems. We had 136mls over the weekend. Today was lovely, no humidity and cool enough to have a couple of blankets overnight.<br />Love your crocheted bunting, gorgeous colours.<br /><br />Have a great week,<br /><br />Claire :}Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742003349610251189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-80864238989099164612011-02-07T02:53:31.439+11:002011-02-07T02:53:31.439+11:00Hi Anne, thank you so much for your visit and love...Hi Anne, thank you so much for your visit and lovely comment!
