Strangely enough, though I know that what you are saying WH is supposed to be true, isn't (at least, my observational experiences differ). I have killed tons of Wasps (Yellow Jackets, to be honest) in my lifetime. I kill them on sight. I have never, ever witnessed others directly nearby becoming violent, or more aggressive as they normally are, when one is killed in their immediate vicinity. In fact, they just continue as before. Which makes killing them much easier. So either they ignore such pheromones, or for some reason do not release them upon death - otherwise I am quite positive that I would have been the victim of many stings many times. At one bar-b-q I had a small pile of dead Yellow Jackets stacked, just so I could count how many had tried to crash the party - upwards of 40 within 3 hours. I use various methods to kill them - I prefer the flyswatter, of course. It has the highest kill ration and success chance. The second best is the hand - swat the wasp violently to the ground when it is in flight, and then step on it as it lays their, stunned. Drowning in my beer is the last resort - I hate it when they do that! :mad: Note that I do not kill bees - bees do not tend to invade a picnic or bar-b-q like Yellow Jackets do (and do not aggressively attempt to take part in said activity).
