Attack of the Militant Wasps!

As I wrote the other day, since moving into the new flat, I've been surprised by the number of wasps flying in and we had found the cause.  After our kitchen being a little wasp highway straight to the sugar source that is our gingerbread hearts from the festival last year, I decided enough was enough.  These little insects had literally trained themselves to negotiate the window on tilt, to get in and find their little ways through the plastic wrapping to their prize.  We decided to tape up the holes in the plastic so that they couldn't get in anymore.  Did that stop them?  Nope, shortly afterwards, an especially big bug clapped itself onto the side and literally ate its way through the plastic!  We've taken the next step now and sprayed the whole thing with hairspray which seems to be doing the trick for now...just as long as it doesn't encourage them to explore other rooms in the flat again.
