What I miss is the butterflies. Where have they all gone?

Can't remember the last time I genuinely saw one. I live in a rural area too with a lot of greenery.

Bees?!
The sad thing is that as much as we love to hate them, the reduction in Wasps will have a dramatic effect on the ecosystem. They kill a ton of garden pests and provide food for birds.
Don't even get me started on what the current lack of Bees will do to our environment in the long run... sigh.
Wasps are basically the chavs of the insect world, overly aggressive, make annoying buzzing noises when you're trying to chill out (think mopeds..), ridiculously stupid (the window is open, all you need to do is fly an inch higher you dumb ****) and serve no real purpose other than annoyance while the rest of society (bees) work their **** off!
I don't think I've seen a wasp this year! Plenty of bees though. Long may it stay that way. Bees are awesome in that you can happily eat and drink next to a plant full of them and they will rarely bother you. They just stick to pollinating flowers. Wasps just seem to go out of their way to **** everyone off.

What would you rather bee or a wasp?
It definitely tasted more... Stingy.
Its around September you want to be careful of wasps, they always seem to act more stupid around that time. Apparently its due to them drinking the fermented juices of rotted apples and therefore getting drunk. Lecturer told us that when we were doing a-level chemistry back in 97.
I think they've been in a decline in the past few years.
Used to spend many a happy lunch hour at Primary School kicking the litter bin to antagonise the "jaspers" gorging on an apple core or Um-Bongo carton, then batter them with a jumper as they rose to attack and tred on them. Repeated for an hour. Better than a PS3.

There we go, add that to the list of chav-like activities that wasps engage in. Getting hammered on cheap "cider" in the park, and then trying to pick fights with random strangers...
wasps must be the stupidest creature on the planet.
you can open a window wide and a bee will follow the air stream...
a wasp will just slowly go around all over the place and **** you off
This is not stupid behavior, this is an example of evil wit, the beast see's your frustration in its actions and messes with your mind by continuing with the charade, knowing deep down its driving you insane!.

Your Dad's a national hero.
Haha, brilliant!
Rofl so true.I would still take wasps over spiders anyday though.One Came at me 6am yesterday morning across the kitchen floor and he was BIG.He really took me by suprise and being 6am i had no hoover handy to do battle.
I ended up bashing him with a bit of skirting board but he was so fast i pooped myself multiple times.I never once had that with a wasp and they fade away in winter.
