I've had a helluva time with wasps around the property this summer. Today, I found this huge wasp on the screen door on the back porch. It was nearly 2 inches long. I swatted it with a fly swatter and then tried to crush it with my shoe (I was wearing slippers...nothing sturdy). The damn thing felt like I was trying to crack a pecan under my foot. I finally felt it pop and watched it as it was still trying it's damnedest to sting something.
Anyway, then I find this story on FoxNews tonight:

This is what I saw on the porch. One of these big-ass, cicada-killing wasps. I can't even imagine being stung by one of these guys. Apparently only the females have stingers...go figure.
