I love decorating my house at Christmas... and this year, I managed to get some nice streamers for the jades outside.
However, the black mud wasps weren't all that forgiving when I moved them.
They had returned and one of them got under my shirt and stung me through my underwear, under my arm - OMG! - did it hurt! I nearly stripped off in my carport! I raced inside instead and didn't find the culprit... but one of my neighbours did suggest putting vinegar on the bites, which worked like a charm!
There's a big red spot where it bit me today, and it doesn't itch like it would have.
Writer, poet, artist and prolific reader.... that's me.
I'm a collector of books, vinyls, coin purses and strange handbags... that's me too.
Otherwise, I love...
@brillomick They're looking better than last year because I've been watering them... and they're much greener than they have been last year too... the right hand one is over 6ft tall! I love it just because it's gotten that tall. I've grown them like this so I can decorate them at Christmas. :D
