drunk wasps

[russbushpig]

Since I changed my company t-shirts to almost hi vis "orange" ive had a few more close calls with the little blighter's im wondering if they are attracted by the colour !! might have to change back to black (or paranoia), had one land on the back of my wrist a few weeks back....i froze thought about it..........and bailed :flybye: I know what a big girl !!!, was left we a 1 inch scar on the top of my head from the last one.

 

Apparently they cannot see the colour red http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2406094/Want-ward-wasps-Wear-red-trousers--tie-paper-bag-nearest-tree-And-DONT-wear-aftershave.html...

I thought that they could and were more likely to go for raspberry or strawberry jam than marmalade partly because of the attraction of the colour.

They dont like black and yellow for deffinate.I was in a customers garden the other day with a black t shirt with yellow writing and was instantly attacked by several wasps.Very agitated.One went straight for my leg but swatted straight away.I was with a mate who does pest control and he noted it.Turned my t inside out and they lost interest.

Something in it fer sure.
