Evidently turtle wax works even on those little amc hornets.

A few weeks ago in the mig class I'm taking, one of the other students came over with the charred remains of a large wasp that happened to fly right into his rod (he was stick welding something) and pretty muched vaporized everything but his shell.

As for the spider by the door. looks kinda wolf spider-ish. I do home inspections and the last place I go is the crawl space. I tell people that I like to save the best for last. the funny thing is, is that I really like going under. The only time I backed out was because the crawl space looked like something from an indiana jones movie. the spiderwebs were so thick, I spent ten minutes clearing out a place to start from. I started smacking spiders on the ground and recognized them as distinctly resembling the brown recluse. I told the seller to fog the basement and have someone else clear out the webs before I went back in. that happened two weeks later.
