I go to the outdoor storage where I keep my stash of C900's. I go to open a door, a colony of hornets have moved into the car's driver's side mirror. Horror! I got stung by one of these guys before and suffered for couple of weeks. (I don't react to bug bites very well.) Well, I heard WD40 works really well in killing them. I had neither that nor the hornet spray. I did have a left over Mountain Dew from Taco Bell from yesterday's lunch. I figured hornets are bees and bees like sweets. So splashed the Dew on the windshield. Quickly bang on the mirror and scoot out of the way so I don't get stung and lo and be hold, the hornets swarmed to lick the Dew. While they are busy drinking, I used the supersized Taco Bell plastic cup that held the Dew to wack at the hornets. Wack! 4 or five drop to the floor, other buzz around. I quickly run away to avoid their stinger. After about 30 seconds, they settle again. Wack! another 4 or 5 drop. After about 10 times of this, I don't see any bees. So I claim victory. MUHAHAHA!
Happy Friday folks!
