The purpose is to sting the sinners for thier misdeeds. God made them to punish us!

Well I think that is jolly naughty of him and those who are in communication with him should have words.

If all I get for my sins is a mild sting on my right hand pinky-finger during a match that doesn't even affect my shooting, then I really have to rethink this whole karma/morality thing because clearly I'm being way too good.

I hear that in one alternative medicine practice they use bee stings on the hand to help arthritis.

a couple weeks ago I discovered there was about 9 wasps nest under the overhang of my house and a few more in bird houses(for some reason they love bird houses) lets just say it was fun watching taking our revenge.

Medals given to one and all. I would like to think that napalm was the weapon of choice?

How's about this story

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Kids throwing rocks stirred up more trouble than they bargained for when they dislodged a swarm of bees from an enormous hive built in the wall of a Southern California apartment building, authorities said on Friday.

An estimated 120,000 bees held residents of the apartment building and nearby homes hostage in Santa Ana, California after the children pelted their 500 pound (227 kg) hive with rocks on Thursday, Santa Ana Fire Captain Steve Horner said.

Several people, including firefighters, news reporters and a TV cameraman, reported being stung and at least two people were taken to a hospital with multiple stings, Horner said.

Firefighters cordoned off a four-block area to allow the bees to calm down and return to their hive. An exterminator later fogged the hive and vacuumed out 40,000 dead bees, then set a trap for returning worker bees, of which about 80,000 were captured, Horner said.

The quarter-ton honeycomb, which may have accumulated inside the apartment wall for years, was so big it was threatening the structural integrity of the two-story building, Horner said.

Sounds like the kids did a good thing in the end.

A wasp got in my full bi glase of porto of excellent quality 2 weeks ago.

Love to torture the little critters

I prefer arsenic in a spray bottle(bug spray), a few of them survive just long enough to suffer horribly(or at least I'd like to think so) while napalm would look cooler it wouldn't give me the satisfaction I feel I deserve. It's always fun to see the ones that go back(the few that were away tormenting humans at the time of the nerve agent attack) to the now uninhabitable hive soon after the assault fly around before killing them as well.

There are three wasp nests all inside an outdoor wall socket protector. There is at least 15 wasps in it and I am to scared to open it and spray raid everywhere so I'm wating until winter when they are dormant.

A killer bee the size of my thumb stung me on my bad knee. Since then my bad knee has just been my knee.

That said, I've been at war with the entire insect kingdom, minus only bees, since we were introduced. I yearn for the day when a mosquito-hunting retrovirus that noone has agreed to release for ecological concerns falls into my hands.

Muah ha ha, indeed.

RE the improvised flamethrower, WD-40 works GREAT in that regard, but I recommend a full fire suit and rescue workers standing by with fire extinguishers.

I got bit by a wasp some 12 or 13 times at camp once (after breakfast - guess my armpit tasted good. :/ - it actually paused after the first bite - probably tasting it...). (there were 2 species of bees there - hornets and wasps) But, they do pollunate plants, which help them to grow.

Yesterday, I was working on my car (a piece of junk Ford...), leaning over the bumper when I was stung on my knee - the wasps had built a small hive in the bumper of the car, and my knee was blocking their way. So I would be happy to join any conspiracy to get revenge against the evil wasps.

You don't have to wait for months, just got out at midnight on a relatively cold wet night, they ought to be fairly sedate. If you want some extra protection, dress the way you would if you were going downhill skiing (okay, you might not be able to do that if you're living in Georgia). If you're really freaked, tie two sticks together in such a way that you can hold and spray the can at the end of the sticks, giving you four or five more feet. Also, bees/wasps/hornets/etc get very amped up by CO2, so try not to breathe on or toward them.
