Look what we found!!

Opened the summerhouse for the first time this year and this is what we found!



The start of a lovely wasps nest, it wasn't very big about the size of a golf ball but the work that went into it was amazing!!

Don't worry it's not there any more, we joined a few of the gazebo poles together, then knocked if down, a few angry wasps flew out but the nest is no more!

Couldn't have put it better

I am glad you removed it safely, so you and the dogs hopefully won't get stung this year.
