Just want to say a HUGE thank you to Jucy and Sincebb1 who came to my rescue today with my WASP STING! Arrgghhhh!! I was freaking out, and asked for a remedy in the live feed discussion thread, and kinda hijacked it. (sorry, mods). Point being (ha!)... this place has become like family to me, since I lost my sister in February. I didn't want to mention it before, but today's incident reminded me how i have come to depend on this site and the people here for moral support, advice, and always a good laugh. So...thank you all SO much, you've really been a lifeline, especially this summer.

Really happy to hear how much you are enjoying it here, Rosem. I find that TVCH is so much more than just a reality TV site and it's the people here that make it special.

It's really kinda funny but with today's busy world I come here to relax.. and I find that I laugh/share/connect with most of you more than my IRL friends. Thanks to all of you!!

RoseM, if you have to remove those wasps, wait until the weather cools down so they are not as active, then spray the nest and wasps with a solution of dish soap (Dawn) and water in a spray bottle. The soap coats them so that they cannot breathe and the soap smell also discourages them from returning. It is not as fast a killer as the commercial products (wasp sprays) but it is safer if you get it on yourself.

I'll try that Bowl, thanks. I got rid of another one by just knocking it down at dusk, when the wasps were gone. But this sounds better, in case there's a wasp there that I can't see! I live in Florida...we could ride on the wasps here! My head is still stinging!!

If you have bees, it is best to call in an exterminator, because of the danger of bees swarming, but wasps I have removed on my own before.

Hey guys, if you get a chance, drop by the Calling All Lurkers thread and say hi to all the lurkers who are coming out of lurkdom and encourage them to keep posting with us. Thanks.

I am late to the party, but I have a remarkable thing to get rid of wasp or bee stings. Get chewing tobacco and put a good size pinch in water (someone told me you can chew it first, but I put it in water to wet it down) and then place on the sting. I got stung on my ear lobe and wow did that hurt and I tried it and not only did it take the sting out, it never even got swollen. Now I always keep a pouch of chewing tobacco around for such things.

I am mostly a lurker here but wanted to comment on this thread. I figured it would be the longest thread here since this season has been so boring. I am a bit surprised it isn't.

Country..I was going to suggest the tobacco juice but I felt that people would laugh at me. I live in Fl. during the winter and at the pool when someone gets stung, they ask my husband for help..he smokes cigars.

On the subject of weird cures... here's another. Ever try vanilla extract on burns? Seriously. From a little sunburn to second degree, it takes the pain away almost immediately and seems to expedite the healing process and the scar formation. When we were kids, my Mom always had a huge bottle of it in the medicine cabinet. It really works. And you'll smell like a cake. lol

I also did the profile, clear cookie thing, but I found that I had to close my browser first and then revisit this site for it to work properly.

Go to the top of this page, find Profile, and then scroll down that page and you will find a series of options. One will say that cookie bit.
