Wasps are making me scared to go outside!!?

a few days ago i got stung by a wasp on my ankle and now i keep freaking out when i see them! i was almost in tears when there was 1 on my shirt today and i keep thinking they are on my arms and legs when they aren't . it also dosen't help that there are nests around where i live and i hate going outside because of them ! can anybody help me get over my fear of wasps!! please im going crazy !!! help?

Answer 1

If you know where the nests are, wait until its dark and spray them. You hold the flashlight and have someone else spray. They go to their nests at night and this way, you'll get all of them.

Answer 2

Get some wasp spray for the nests or call an exterminator.

Keep in mind, they usually don't bother people who don't bother them, but they are attracted sometimes to perfumes or open coke cans.

Answer 3

Wasps will sting when they feel that their nests are threatened.  You must have unknowingly gotten too close when you were stung.  The best thing to do would be to call an exterminator, they know how to go about getting rid of them for good.  If you can't do that, carefully look around to see where the nests are (you can tell from the activity coming and going), then wait until after dark (that way they are all on the nest and least likely to fly).  Have someone help you by holding a flashlight, and spray the nests with hornet spray - it kills them quick and also any that may be missed and returning to the nest (residue will kill them).

Answer 4

I know what you mean!! They are SO creepy.  I would call an extreminator to get rid of them. I wouldnt do it myself, they might try and sting you as you do.  In the meantime just stay away from them and they wont bother you. Good luck!

Answer 5
