Of course all the kids got their own piece of wasp paper to keep as a memento. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Scuba1 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 What a work of art. I love those nests when they are built that well. Used to have quite a collection of them but gave them to a school. ATB Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy0211 2 Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 at school the other day there was a section of the car park closed off because bees had moved into an air vent type thing, it was right outside my form room, my mates afraid of bees so i opened the window lol but got told to shut it almost instantly by my teacher, the caretaker had a great big lifty up machine lol and cemented over it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
