WASPS!!! HELP!!!!

WASPS!!! HELP!!!!

Last week I found a wasp in my bathroom, in my toliet (he was drowning, my DH saved him and put him outside...he can't kill anything, but that's another story).
Anyway, I was hoping it was a one time thing, I'm terrified of these things.

Well, today, there was another one walking around that very same bathroom, on the floor!

I'm freaking out!!!!!!!

The window screen is secure, the only thing I can think of is the two vents in the bathroom.
I want DH to call an exterminator, but he thinks he can do everything...so right now he's up there screwing around with the vents.

I should call an exterminator, right?
(I'm worried DH won't really find anything, but they'll still keep coming in).

Anyone else have to deal with wasp nests?

I have never dealt with them but you do have to be careful with them. Your DH knows the risks of their stings. IMO I would call an exterminator especially since they are finding their way into the house!!

Good luck!

Kathy-

When we were children we had the oddest thing happen. We started to hear buzzing in the walls of the house. Kind of weird. My parents figured they would take care of it the next day. At around 10pm, the buzzing got worse and wasps started entering the house from the air conditioning ducts. My dad did not know what to do. He started hitting them with a hammer. Then they started entering faster from other spots. My mom, sister, and I had to evacuate the house and they had to call a 24 hour exterminator. Well, the entire night, THOUSANDS of wasps invaded the house. It was like that movie Birds. The exterminator was in shock. He could not believe what he was seeing. They had to bomb the entire house. They literally were taking it over.

OMG!!!

In my DHs previous life (before he became a veterinarian) he was an exterminator, but only for a year, and that was like over 20 years ago!!! He was just a kid, so I don't think he really knows what he's doing.

I'm calling one tomorrow, and if he whines, then I'll move back to my parent's home until this situation is resolved, I'm freaking out!

I would call an exterminator...especially if you have pets in the house.

Oh, my I found a couple of Wasp's in my house! We called an exterminator and someone is coming over tomorrow. I can't risk Andrew or myself getting stung. I'm allergic to bee's. I'm not sure if I'm allergic to wasps.
