Old woman stung 1000 times by yellow jackets...

This is a window in our south bedroom.
Fortunately we haven't yet worked on it and made it useable.
Someone could have been sleepin in there when these critters decided to swarm.
They come in thru the sandstone window sill and then
dug thru the plaster wall to git into the bedroom.
This is the 3rd or 4th pile of 'em.
I have swept hundreds of them of the floor a few times.

next to our house with a push mower. Came too close to a ground nest of nasty little yellow jackets. I took off running after the first couple nailed me but three more got me before I got away. Went in and doctored the stings with baking soda paste. Then went out in the shade to cool off. I nursed my injuries and plotted vengeance. The mower was still running but finally ran out of gas. After things settled down I carefully scouted and finally saw their hole. In a brazen move I successfully retrieved the mower. I put a little gas in the tank and waited to strike. When things looked pretty peaceful I fired the mower up and cranked her to full power. Went on a dead run, parked the mower right over the hole, and kept on running. At a safe distance I watched for several minutes as the yellow jacket chunks flew. After a short while the mower ran out of gas. I waited until after dark to get the mower. Checked the battlefield the next morning. I don't know how many were in the hole but the carnage was staggering. Far as I know I got every last one of the little devils. If there were any left they'd decided to move on.

I still remember how much those stings itched, ached, and hurt. I can't even imagine what a thousand would be like. I hope the poor woman survives.
