No wasp nest protection?


The Wasps put Roger in the hospital. Holmes and Roger’s Mom go after the wasp nest, proceed to set it on fire, and stick around to watch it burn? I would have bolted, or at least slowly walked away. Not an expert on wasps or bees but I think there was a missing sense of urgency in that scene.

Been awhile since watching it but generally speaking it depends on the time of day.

They first discover the nest during the day but they do the burning at night. So you may have explained. Still, night or day, I light a wasp nest on fire I’m gona screw out of there asap.

It does. I have a problem with yellow jackets every summer. They do become less active after sundown but sometimes they surprise me.
