Aggressive Wasp Leafleting Has to Stop
I know that wasps need to make a living just like the rest of us. Really, I do. I’m not trying to single them out and say “Hey, you! You wasp! Stop making a decent living wage! I condemn you to poverty for the rest of your natural waspy life.”
No, I never do that, honestly. I just don’t see why they have to be so aggressive with their leaflet distribution. Some days the whole family needs to get behind the front door of our house and push with all our might to dislodge the mountain of leaflets that the wasps put on our front porch. Sure, that’s only once a week or so, but it’s still a serious amount of work. Remember when Steve Binghamton wound up in the hospital from overexertion after trying to get his door open? These wasps are causing us humans serious injuries.
And the monthly leaflet disposal costs continue to skyrocket. I know the last few investigations didn’t turn up anything, but I think it’s time for another look into whether the wasps that distribute the leaflets have any connection with the spiny hornets that charge outrageous amounts for leaflet pickup. No matter how many times the city council finds them innocent, I’m still convinced that there has to be some kind of racket going on there. It’s just too convenient for both species, don’t you think?
So join me this weekend and install an automatic leaflet shredder on your front porch as well. Let’s show these wasps who’s the boss of what porch!
Take back the porches!
