Mowing the lawn like normal, I suddenly felt numerous bites or stings. I guess I stepped near a nest and came away with six stings. Annoying little things, aren’t they?

I discovered a nest in my yard under a bush when I was retrieving some spare potting soil. They were VERY aggressive and I got stung. It hurt WAY more than the last honey bee sting I can remember.
That night (when they are dormant) I went out with a bottle of regular dish soap and squirted about 1/4 of the bottle in the hole in the ground near the bush I saw them coming out of earlier. That took care of the whole nest and I haven’t seen another one since that day. That was about three weeks ago.
