A wet/dry vacuum with a little soapy water in it works wonders.
These people… first hit by a hurricane, now Waspocalypse.
Climate change sucks.
North Carolina sounds like a hell scape.
For many reasons other than this. At least they're trying to do something about it. I'd rather be here than Florida or Texas.
floods and swarms of insects? are we sure that florida, with all of its blasphemers and heretics, hasn’t incurred the wrath of god?
Well that sucks. Usually all you have to do to avoid a swarm of yellow jackets is to stay away from public park shelter trash cans.
Write your local government and encourage them to get rid of these. It's out of control. Districts that have strict carry-on / carry-out laws without public trashes have some of the cleanest parks I've ever seen and you can eat without insect attack. Sounds like a hassle to not have trashes, but if you've experienced it, you'll likely agree it's totally worth it.
There may be some delay due to the buildings and parks being erased, however.
My God.
Disaster... THEN THE BEES?!
You think Republicans will get the hint once the frogs start raining down?
More seriously though, to the persons in North Carolina, bee careful, take precautions, and stay indoors where possible.
