Wait, this is a common occourrence? It's normal to see wasps on pastries?

[–] vxx@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I'm from germany, and it indeed is in summer, even in large cities. Wasps come in with the customers and wont leave.

Do German wasps attack you unprovoked like ours do?

[–] vxx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Apparently that's a myth according to every source I could find about wasps in the US.

They seek out your breath, so people start panicking swinging wildly and running away, which in return might be considered a threat for the wasp.

Hold your breath and walk away.

Killed wasps on the other hand attract other wasps out for revenge, if the nest is somewhere nearby.

The nest is my primary target. Cover up, knock it down, destroy it, walk away for a bit, they all leave. Fuk wasps.

Hmm. When you consulted "every source I could find about wasps in the US" apparently you chose to disregard the direct feedback of people on the front line. Hmm.

  • it would be illegal to go after the nest in Germany. At least generally. There are of course exceptions, but you’d need to get the authorities involved and a specialist remove them.
  • you’d often need to dig, because the most annoying wasps (common wasp and German yellowjacket) often have their nests underground

Thanks for the perspective.

[–] vxx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Yes, I value scientific research over some subjective random comment on Lemmy. Weird, I know.

[–] dbtng@eviltoast.org 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Cool. Have you laughed today?

[–] vxx@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Yes, a lot. And you?

[–] crazyhotpasta@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, if you leave them outside at summer. No wasps in bakeries or coffeeshops in Finland.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

God I love the Finns. Finnish coffee sounds amazing too.
