Oh boy, I know what you mean. Those wasps can really be a bother and you have to spray and spray. But I had never thought of wearing throw away gloves. Great idea.

Rita.

The gloves are a great idea! I hate getting that spray on me.
Also, if you get a nasty wasp or yellowjacket indoors, you can kill them very nicely with a heavy spray of rubbing alcohol. I wait till they land in a window and soak them down. The alcohol kills them as well as the poison spray and dries without leaving a residue or odor. (Well, I guess the dead wasp could be considered a residue! ) I always keep a spray bottle of alcohol on hand!

Great idea woofie!

It's something I discovered by accident one day when all I had on hand to take out a wasp was a spray bottle of alcohol. I was just trying to wet it's wings so it couldn't fly; surprised the heck out of me when it killed it! I'm forever having to deal with them in my greenhouse and the wasp spray was just not something I wanted to use around edibles. The straight alcohol will burn some plants, tho, so now I just don't put plants in the window where the bugs like to land.

Kewl!

If you rinse the alcohol off the plants right away I bet it would not harm them. I use alcohol on plants to kill bugs sometimes & rinse afterwards & have never had one be affected.

Heh, usually I'm not thinking rationally when I have to deal with wasps in small, enclosed spaces.

Both gloves and alcohol are great ideas! Thanks ladies!

Good idea! Also liking the alcohol idea, good to know.

I keep a box of disposable gloves in my work truck, they're really economical and come in handy for all sorts of things. Sevin comes to mind as well as filthy grease guns. Pharmacy departments offer all sorts and prices, I never spend more than $5-6 for 100. Great for first aid too, you never know when you might need them. Never really considered it until I used the pair that came with my first aid kit and decided to replace them. Solid little investment.

What a great idea to keep them in the glove box Wes.
