    wasp eating birds?

    Are there any birds in the SE that eat wasps? We have a pool and it's a freakin wasp magnet. I put a couple of bird houses in the back yard in hopes that it would help solve the problem but nobody has moved in yet.

    if all else fails there's always the wasp traps at Home Depot.

    i've had significantly better luck with the one is a plastic bag over the more expensive platics tube with a cone inside.

    Hmm, it seems odd to me that the wasps like the pools.  Generally, they like decks and other wood objects.  Are you sure it isn't yellow jackets?  If it is yellow jackets, fill a nice big tub full of mountain dew and soap.  They'll land in it and die because of drinking the soapy MD.

    If it is wasps...weird, I can't help ya there.
