Give me some suggestions for dealing with this motherfucker that scared the crap out of my kids.

UPDATE 2: Thank you all for your creative solutions. Unfortunately I don’t think my parents would have been happy if I put gas or fire on their carpet, or blow darts in the floor and wall, but I will keep all the notes for (the hopefully never) next time! You all are true Canadians with how you do warfare.

UPDATE: I got paper under it and then made my brother throw it outside 💕 though I’m pretty sure it’s a goner due to how inactive it was and how cold it is outside unless we have a nest near

Idk what kinda wasp this is it’s been hidden in the room for days. Do they sting through paper? Will it remember me and attack? This mf appeared in my parents bedroom I was using days ago and then just disappeared. I quarantined the area living in fear of that room as he lived in the shadows. I went in today and saw him on the ground and cups him, I do not know my next steps.

Everything falls apart when I’m without it, though. If a wasp comes at me and I’m unarmed, or, god forbid, I come across a nest/swarm, I’m fucked.

A wasp somehow got in the kitchen, and I noticed it getting its nasty paws all over a measuring cup. I was freaking out because I did NOT have my death spray on me (Water, peppermint oil, neem oil, and dish soap), until I remembered that my dad bought a squeeze bottle of dish soap. Squared my shoulders, crept forward when its back was turned, and drowned it in The Slop. Watched it writhe before pouring it down the sink. A few years ago, I would’ve ran screaming for my dad

This dude was tapping on my basement door’s window. Holy shit balls it spooked me for a second. Haha. This is a European Hornet. They are more on team fuck wasps than you might assume. They are predatory and eat late pests, including yellow jackets! So go easy on the dude.

Spent some time watching though. It was wild to look at an insect that is 3 inches long. The level of detail that you easily see is really fascinating.

Also, killed the lights and that dude scrammed. I know the look like em, but remember they are an ally.

Second one today... DIE.

EDIT: Bc everyone here seems dirty minded, I am a female. keep the jokes to yourself lol

It's me.

I was taking it off to replace it and discovered several assholes inside had set up house. Fire, or poison spray people. You decide. I execute your desire.

From some brief internet research, it looks very similar in it's marking to a queen. Does anyone know?

Found on IG.

These jerks keep getting into my house somehow. I’ve never seen a nest. We have a crawlspace in the attic that we’ve checked out but found no evidence of wasps in. I’m so confused. I’ve reached out to an exterminator but wondering the ID in the meantime. Maryland, USA
