WASPS!!! what wasps? noboby mentioned WASPS before ,it s bad enough coping with mozzies now it seems there is a WASP problem of biblical proportions! I dont think i will tell the wife about this as she not to fond of the natural world and treats me as her unpaid pest controler. I can picture it now two weeks on standby, clutching a rolled up newspaper waiting for the command to KILL IT NOW, and me a nature lover not to mention the loss of sunbed time
There are always wasps about when we go in late August /September. I have only ever been stung once though. They only seem to be a problem when you are trying to eat and they keep buzzing round your table. I have kept my sting roll on thingy I bought after my sting just in case. It helps to relieve the sting.
only once eh? and "only " when you eat - sounds pretty inconvenient to me
It's the natural order of things in San Stefanos!!
Yes you get wasps - I have been going since 1983 and never been stung by one, nor do I know anyone who was.
Unlike the british variety, these are not very agressive at all.
They sometimes arrive as you eat, DO NOT jump up - start screaming - flapping your arms or get emotionally disturbed!!
No need!! - just casually wave them away, unless you have jam / honey / fruit juice on the table,
they tend to get bored very quickly and go!!
The problem is really not too bad and we have been there every month in the season, over the years.
They are a little worse late August onwards, but remain calm - - wave them away - -no problem - Really!!
