Something really creepy happened to me last night...

[Christiansmommy]

A neighbor of mine was getting rid of a Little Tikes work bench (a play bench for my son to play with his play tools)...so i picked it up from my neighbor and loaded it in my car ( a small Honda Civic) (it was dark outside at the time)...i am driving home and i look over and there is a wasp walking on it!!! Mind you, it is in the passengers seat and i am in the drivers seat, and my son is behind the passengers seat...so i drove faster...and i see 2 wasps!!! So i am thinking, "oh no, there was a hidden nest on here" (my neighbor kept it as an outside toy, and it hadnt been played with for some time.)...so i race home, my heart pounding and praying that they dont fly on me or my son...i throw it out of the car and see not 1, but 2 nests on it, with WASPS IN THEM!!!! 5 wasps total...i am SO thankful we didnt get stung...i had the creepy crawlies all night!! So it is outside in the the same postion as i left it last night, out in the grass, on its side. I might go out there in the rain today and see if they have flown away during the rain and flick off the nest...but ONLY if i am totally sure they are gone!!

We are all lucky we didnt get stung!!!

That was one scary car drive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God I don't know how I would be able to drive with a wasps nest next to me! Glad no one got stung.

I know...if it wasnt in my own neighborhood and i wasnt like only 2 minutes from my house, i would have jumped out and threw it out on the road!! I didnt know for sure there was a nest when i was driving, if i did, i would have, for sure, been screaming and running from my car like a crazy woman!!

Oh geez, that is pretty scary. I don't think I could have drove home, I would have stopped right then and there, especially if my son was in the car. Knowing him he would have grabbed one and stuck in it his mouth lol. I am terrified of wasps, bees I can stand. And that's only because I know that if they sting you, you die, and it really doesn't hurt that bad. But wasps can sting multiple times, which is why they scare me so much!

Glad you two are OK.

Yeah, when i realized it, i was about 1 minute from my house...and i drove fast!!! I really am lucky we didnt get stung...i prayed that we wouldnt!!!!

Oh my! Knowing me, I would have probably freaked and gotten into a wreck. Glad y'all didn't get stung. Scary. I hate wasps. One morning I went into the ferret room to feed the ferts before work. Just as I was about to open the cage, I notice a huge wasp crawling on the comforter on top of the cage. I have no idea how it got in there. I freaked and ran into the bathroom to grab a can of bug spray. That only ticked the wasp off. And I'm running screaming around the house like an idiot with a ticked off wasp after me. I swear it took a good 5 minutes for the spray to work before the wasp finally croaked. So not how I wanted to start my morning. But I sure was awake after that!

I would have been a totol mess. Probably would have had an accident while freaking out. You handled it a lot better than I would have.
