OK so I’m sitting at my desk today trying to figure out somehow to get some interviews and get a web deisgn job. If only something would just show itself and I would recognize it as my big opportunity and take advantage of it.
So then while working at my desk in the basement rewriting my resume I hear this loud buzzing flying around me in the dark. With only a desk lamp on I turn on more lights to see what it is. Almost sounded like a hummingbird but more like a bee flying around. When I turned the light on this is what I saw:

I captured him in a cd spindle cover so to scale this bee he looks to be about one third the size of a CD. That’s a big ass yellow jacket bee.
Hey btw if anyone is looking for a good web designer please contact me.

I wouldn’t get carried away about your hornet problem, depending on where you live they shouldn’t be active much longer.

I called an exterminator about the giant bees at my house. He said they are European Hornets. Then said that I would have to find the nest before he could take care of it. Said they generally make a nest in a tree and can be difficult to find as their nest may be up high in the tree and just inside of a nothole. GREAT! Like looking for a needle in a haystack, I am surrounded by trees. I have stopped putting my porch light on at night, but I need to get rid of them or they might be worse next year. Any suggestions?

If they are cicada killers and from Australia they are a long way from home. Think about it climate change man taking over their foraging area where else do they have to go but following thier food sorce UofA does have cicadas in your area?

Oh, sorry, I meant we didn’t want the wasps/bees here; we do want the dogs and babies. Should have proofed before submitting. Thx again.

Hi,
I’m in central Indiana and saw the first giant wasp/bee in mid-summer. We speculated it was some kind of mutant bee. Yesterday I saw them in my front lawn; they are digging holes in the grass near the curb. I think they are the cicada killer wasp/bee, but we have dogs and babies in the neighborhood and I don’t want them or their ilk. We will probably call a professional exterminator. Thx for all the info.
