Outside my house, by a window, is a Mr. Whippy-style wasp nest. And it's evil!
There's a hole at the bottom where they go inside, and they're all buzzing around it. Wah!
I put some pictures on the Net for you, so, er, yeah, take a look if you want.
I'll be calling the exterminator in the morning then...

(The random ligh/dark effects was a poor attempt at me having to make the picture lighter in order to see the nest properly)

Another of the hive.
There ya go!
And by the next day, they'd gone.
We had a bloke over, couldn't find them, but he cryptically said "they'll be back," leaving us a few beekeeper suits we had to wear when we slept for protection purposes. Then the bees came back that night, destroyed the house, swarmed our bath-tub and viciously attacked us, but we slept soundly thanks to our suits.
All of that story is true.
Apart from the beekeeper suits bit, we never really got them.
Oh, and the bees never really came back either.
But I still heed Barry from the Council's warning. "They'll be back..."

Argh. Yeah, I hate 'em too. I think most people do..
Another time I had a wasps nest in my garden. It was in a hole in the garden with tunnels and stuff. So I got a bt of pipe from the gutter, jammed it in the entrance and the started filling it up with water. Worked a treat. Couldn't figure out a better way. And it had to be done, I had small children next door.
If yes, then OH MY GAWD!
I hate wasps. Hate 'em.
Do you have to go out that way when you want to leabe the house?
This is the sort of thing they'd talk about in the Twilight Zone.

When combined, you get:
