More stinging insects!

This is a brief explanation about leashing bees and wasps. First off, the things were everywhere and there are a lot of stories to be told. Leashing them consisted first of catching one in a plastic bag. The next step is to put them in the freezer for a while(at least until they stop moving). Next break into your mother's string supply. Take the wasp out and put him on the operating table. While it's still too cold to move, tie the string around its abdomen. Tada, you've got a leashed wasp! If you don't tie the knot before the wasp heats up, that's your problem. When your done playing, kill the thing or cut the string short to let it go, tagged for further study.

I always tell people about how you guys used to do that. It was crazy, but kinda funny, too.

I remember you guys doing that at my house. We had SO many dirt dobbers flying around because of all our ponds.
