Thanks for all the fabulous peppermint oil info! The sugar ants have been a pain in my neck.
Tried to give Nancy and Linda acorns but I can't for some reason.
Paper Wasps are garden allies, pollinators and helpful predator all in one. I was horrified of them when I was young but we now have a live and let live relationship, as long as they stay clear of the doorways. I get stung at least once a year (mostly at work). The red ones have a brutal sting while the yellow ones ( Polistes exclamans ) don't hurt quite as badly (very relative, don't recommend either) but they're much more aggressive.
