We also have these cool guys (though, freaky the first time you see one). Ichneumon wasp.

 

 

That looks like some kind of wasp-on-a-stick. Couldn't you just grab em and hold em by the giant stinger while you roast their heads/bodies with a lighter?

Yes, you probably could, lol. They are harmless though. I don't even think they can bite, they don't feed their entire adult life.

^ WTF is that long appendage the stinger??

Do the world a favor and kill as many of those fuckers as you can.

Fuckin weird.

 

I guess if they don't sting/bite, (and they stay out of my house/truck), I don't need to annihilate them.

Looks more like a handle to me. I'd like to catch a few of these live and stick em ass first into some dense foam or something...

Lol, or that's one of them "black wasps."

We have yellow jackets something fierce here in the summer. The new pup had her first encounter a couple of weeks ago, and her face swelled up for a few hours. Wife was freaking out, but every dog I've owned has done this on their first encounter. The Aussie/Border Collie and my late Chow/Spitz would chase them down and eat them.

It's an ovipositor. Just about all of wasps' relatives have them, but unlike bees, wasps, and ants, which use their ovipositors for stinging, ichneumon wasp ovipositors use their to lay their eggs in or on other insects. When the eggs hatch, the larvae eat the host insect.

WTF??? Seriously.

Super Soaker Rifle with water and Dawn dishwashing liquid. Works every time. Suffucates them (they breath through their body surface).

I'll kill anything In a ground nest in my yard or trails, and anything that makes a nest on my house except mud daubers. Mud daubers are docile, only stinging if handled. They don't even defend their nests. They also feed exclusively on spiders. I will never kill one of the iridescent blue ones; they feed exclusively on black widows. The black ones and black and yellow ones eat normal spiders.
