Keeping Safe With Wasp Control Measures For Polistes Humilis In Autumn

As the warm hues of summer fade into the crispness of autumn, it’s not just the leaves that change – the behaviour of insects shifts as well. In Australia, one of the notable transitions is the heightened activity of Polistes humilis wasps. These social insects, commonly known as paper wasps, can become a nuisance around homes and gardens. However, with proper preparation and proactive Wasps Control in Geelong, Brighton and Mulgrave you can effectively control their presence and safeguard your living spaces.

Understanding Polistes Humilis

Polistes Humilis, commonly known as the Australian Paper Wasp, is a species of social wasp endemic to Australia. Identified by their slender bodies and distinctive paper-like nests, these insects thrive in urban and rural environments alike. As autumn approaches, these wasps tend to become more aggressive, seeking shelter in protected areas. Unlike solitary wasps, Polistes Humilis constructs communal nests, typically under eaves, in roof voids, or within shrubbery. Their nests, typically constructed from wood fibres and saliva, can house hundreds of individuals, posing a risk to human inhabitants due to their painful stings.

Behaviour and Threats:During autumn, Polistes Humilis colonies reach peak activity as they prepare for the colder months. These wasps can become highly aggressive when disturbed, posing a significant threat to humans and pets. Their stings, while painful, can also trigger severe allergic reactions in susceptible individuals.

Lifecycle:Understanding the lifecycle of Polistes Humilis is integral to effective control. In autumn, colonies reach their zenith, with the queen laying eggs that will develop into new workers. As temperatures drop, these colonies may become more defensive, seeking refuge indoors, thus increasing the risk of human encounters.

Implementing Preventive Measures

Before implementing control measures, it’s essential to identify potential nesting sites around your property. Inspect areas such as roof overhangs, outdoor furniture, and dense vegetation where Polistes humilis may establish their colonies. Early detection allows for timely Wasps Control in Brighton Geelong and Mulgrave, minimising the risk of infestation. Some of the important preventive measures that on can opt for are as follows:

Sealing Entry Points:Seal any gaps or cracks in the exterior of your home to prevent wasps from entering. Pay particular attention to areas around windows, doors, and utility openings.

Removing Attractants:Keep outdoor dining areas clean and free of food scraps, as these can attract foraging wasps. Additionally, secure garbage bins with tightly fitting lids to minimise access to food sources.

Trimming Vegetation:Regularly trim hedges, shrubs, and trees near your home to reduce potential nesting sites for Polistes humilis. Pruning foliage also improves visibility, making it easier to detect and address wasp activity.

Safe Nest Removal Techniques

In the event that a Polistes humilis nest is discovered on your property, it’s crucial to proceed with caution to avoid provoking the insects. Consider the following safe measures for Wasps Control in Mulgrave, Geelong and Brighton:

Night time Removal:Wasps are less active at night, making it an ideal time to remove nests. Wear protective clothing, approach the nest quietly, and use a flashlight with a red filter to minimise disturbance.

Deterrent Sprays:Several commercially available insecticide sprays are formulated specifically for wasp control. Follow the product instructions carefully and apply the spray directly to the nest for effective eradication.

Professional Assistance:If dealing with a large or inaccessible nest, consider seeking assistance from pest control professionals. They have the expertise and equipment to safely remove the nest without putting you or your family at risk.

As autumn unfolds across Australia, the presence of Polistes Humilis wasps poses a tangible threat to homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts alike. By understanding the behaviour and life cycle of these insects, along with implementing targeted Wasps Control in Geelong, Brighton and Mulgrave, individuals can effectively mitigate the risk of encounters and safeguard their surroundings. Whether through proactive nest inspections, professional assistance, or environmentally conscious strategies, mastering autumn in the face of Polistes Humilis challenges is within reach. Stay vigilant, stay informed, and ensure a pest-free season ahead. Remember, for comprehensive wasp control, always prioritise safety and consider consulting with pest management experts like Pest Free Nests for tailored solutions.

How to Get Rid of a Wasp Nest in Sussex

Sussex, with its picturesque landscapes and serene countryside, is a place many call home. However, amidst its natural beauty, one common nuisance that residents encounter, especially during the warmer months, is the presence of wasp nests. These nests can pose a threat to individuals and pets, making their removal a necessary task. Wasp nest removal in Sussex is a common concern for many homeowners. Fortunately, with the right approach, getting rid of such nests can be done effectively and safely. In this article, we'll explore some strategies to tackle this challenge head-on.

1. Identifying the Wasp Nest: Before embarking on any removal process, it's crucial to identify the location of the nest of a wasp. Wasps typically build their nests in sheltered areas, such as under eaves, in trees, or even inside wall cavities. They can also be found in garden sheds, attics, or any other secluded spots around your property.

2. Safety Precautions: Safety should always be the top priority when dealing with wasp nests. Wasps can become aggressive when their nest is disturbed, so it's essential to take precautions to avoid stings. Wear protective clothing such as long sleeves, pants, gloves, and a veil or mask to shield your face. Additionally, make sure to work during the cooler hours of the day when wasps are less active, typically early in the morning or late in the evening.

3. Natural Remedies: For those who prefer a more eco-friendly approach, there are several natural remedies to consider for wasp nest removal in Sussex. One method is to use a mixture of soap and water sprayed directly onto the nest. The soap suffocates the wasps, causing them to die off. Another option is to hang decoys, such as paper bags or fake wasp nests, near the actual nest, which can deter wasps from building in the area.

4. Commercial Wasp Sprays: Commercial wasp sprays are widely available and can be effective in eliminating wasp nests. These sprays contain chemicals that quickly kill wasps upon contact. When using these products, be sure to follow the instructions carefully and apply the spray from a safe distance to avoid getting stung. It's also important to note that some sprays may contain harmful ingredients, so consider the potential impact on the environment before use.

5. Professional Pest Control Services: In cases where the wasp nest is large or difficult to reach, or if you're uncomfortable handling the removal yourself, hiring a professional pest control service is a wise decision. These experts specialising in pest control in Sussex have the knowledge, experience, and equipment needed to safely remove the nest without putting yourself or your property at risk. Furthermore, they can help prevent future infestations.

6. Preventive Measures: Once the wasp nest has been removed, it's essential to take preventive measures to avoid future infestations. Seal any cracks or openings around your home where wasps can enter, and keep outdoor areas clean and free of food debris. Consider planting insect-repelling plants such as mint, basil, or marigolds around your property to deter wasps from nesting nearby.

Conclusion: Dealing with a wasp nest in Sussex can indeed be a daunting task, but with the right approach, it can be tackled safely and effectively. Whether you choose to tackle the removal yourself using natural remedies or commercial sprays or prefer to enlist the expertise of professionals like Knockout Pest Control, prioritising safety is paramount. By taking preventive measures to discourage future infestations, you can ensure a wasp-free environment and enjoy peace of mind in your home.

The Bee ‘n Boo Ch. 1: The Apiary

Summary: The Core Sides go to a nice vacation at a nice bed and breakfast along Brighton beach. But there’s something about the place that doesn’t sit well with Virgil.

Chapters: 1, 2

It began a couple weeks ago, just as Logan began getting less tense around the Sides. It was a mixture of not being attacked by Phantom after the initial scare, and Logan getting some actual decent sleep for the first time in months. Roman was bored and creatively stifled and complained about it to just about anyone who was in ear shot to hear his plight.

Needless to say that everyone was fed up with it and thought it was a good idea to get the Core Sides away for a bit. Joan rather helpfully gave them a link to a bed and breakfast in Brighton and they booked a trip for the weekend to stay there.

Logan and the Sides packed their bags into Logan’s fully fixed car, and drove for an hour or two to Brighton. Virgil in the back seat with Patton, and Roman in the front with Logan.

“This trip will be exactly what the doctor ordered,” Roman sighed, sunglasses perched on his head.

“Interesting enough, Dr. Iplier helped us find reservations,” Logan agreed as he kept his eyes on the road, “so that statement is not inaccurate.”

“Exactly,” Roman grinned. “Warm sun—”

“We’re going to burn,” Virgil warned.

“That’s what the sunscreen is for, you will all wear it,” Logan reassured. “There are no exceptions.”

“—the beach,” Roman continued to list off.

“We’ll be eaten by killer sharks,” Virgil cut in.

“Statistically unlikely for them to kill us,” Logan reminded. “We do have superpowers, after all.”

“Why can’t you two just enjoy this, it’s a vacation,” Roman huffed in exacerbation.

“There are some crazy mixed reviews for this place,” Virgil said instead of answering his boyfriend. “Apparently it’s been up for a couple months now.”

“What’s the name of this place again?” Patton asked, leaning over to get a look at Virgil’s phone.

“The Bee ‘n Boo,” Virgil instinctively tilted his phone away. “And that’s with an apostrophe-n, not the word “and” for all the grammar freaks in the car.”

“I saw the name in the email,” Logan reminded through clenched teeth, glancing at Virgil’s smile in the rearview mirror “I know how it’s spelled.”

“I think it’s cute,” Patton was on his own phone looking at pictures of the place online. “The little bees are adorable.”

“Yeah, apparently it has amazing atmosphere but is awful if you’re allergic to pollen or bees, or are afraid of bees and wasps.” Virgil rolled his eyes.

“So long as they don’t sting my gorgeous face, it’ll be fine,” Roman gestured to himself.

Logan hummed in recognition. “I had to make sure and sign three different waivers that none of us were allergic, apparently there are live bees on the premises.”

“Awww,” Patton said.

The Sides continued traveling until they got to their destination, a little bit off schedule because of traffic but not missing their check in time thanks to Logan’s anal retentive planning.

“Alright I’ll check in and grab a luggage cart,” Logan told them. “We’ll start with the essentials and then come back for the rest of Roman’s belongings he insisted on bringing.”

“Excuse you,” Roman huffed out as he began pulling out three huge red suitcases full of clothing, makeup, shoes, and his hair care products. “I only packed the essentials. The rest of you philistines came Spartan at best.”

Logan stared at him, arms crossed, not commenting that Roman wasn’t even going to use a third of what he had packed. “I’ll be right back with the keys.”

The logical Side took a deep breath and surveyed the bed and breakfast. It was a couple floors and the doors had an emblem of a bee with two horns going upward, and another set curved underneath the bee like ram horns. Etched in gold was the establishment’s name.

Walking inside Logan came to a halt. He wasn’t sure what he expected when he saw pictures of the place. He knew there was an apiary. It was a huge selling point of the bed and breakfast.

But right in the center of the first and second floor with skylights towards the roof was a huge apiary, the receptionist’s desk right in front of it. Colorful and fragrant flowers carefully laid out and bees buzzing around inside the protective area.

Logan walked up to the receptionist desk, the person at the desk cordial and professional.

“Hello,” they greeted with a warm smile. “Welcome to the Bee ‘n Boo, are you here to check in?”

“Yes,” Logan tore his attention away from the apiary. There would be time to observe it later. “It’s filed under: “Sanders”.”

There was a bit of typing from the receptionist and Logan’s attention drifted back to the apiary. The bed and breakfast was well designed, but it was the apiary that held Logan’s attention. It was clearly a labor of love and the entire floor was covered in flowers. It housed a couple beehives, all with the establishment’s emblem carefully erected into the front of every hive. A thin wall of magic barely visible that kept the bees inside the enclosure and the humans out. There were walls of pure magic with a sign on a pillar that read: “Do not interact with the bees. For your own personal safety. -Bee ‘n Boo Management”.

“Logan Sanders?” The receptionist called out and Logan’s attention turned back to them.

“Yes,” Logan answered.

“Everything seems to be in order,” the receptionist hummed and began preparing four keycards. “We just need you to look over and sign this final document. It’s standard at this time of year, with the fireworks and everything,”

The receptionist slid a paper towards him.

Logan sped-read the document. It was a single page front and back with the usual information about the pool and the breakfast bar. But there were three whole paragraphs that immediately drew the logical Side’s attention. It read as follows:

Fireworks and other incendiary type explosives are NOT permitted anywhere on the Bee ‘n Boo premises irregardless of any religious or national holiday. Either within the building or in the parking lot of the premises. This excludes cigarettes, vapes, and cigars that are allowed in the smoking sections of the Bee ‘n Boo. Along with the lighting of candles are permitted both in and around the Bee ‘n Boo premises.

Failure to follow this regulation may result in police and other law enforcement being called and the fireworks will be seized.

The owners and operators of the Bee ‘n Boo, Mr. and Mr. Underscore-Beloved, apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

The document was signed with two signatures that were the owners’ names: Tubbo and Ranboo Underscore-Beloved.

Logan found the terms agreeable as they had no plans on lighting fireworks or flares, so he signed the document and a copy of the document was given to him.

With that he was given four keycards for the room and Logan thanked the receptionist, remembering to grab a luggage cart on his way back out.

When he got out there he was watching Virgil and Roman lightly bickering about the suitcases. Virgil looked over to Logan as he approached with the cart and immediately noticed the paper with Logan’s scrawl on it.

“What’s that?” Virgil asked. “Thought you signed for everything before we got here?”

“I did, this was just an agreement not to light fireworks or road flares,” Logan said.

“Shame,” Virgil commented, “Patton was excited for a fireworks show.”

Logan picked up his duffle bag and followed Virgil to where Roman and Patton were moving their bags, “Well we are in Brighton so we wouldn’t be seeing any big shows here, we can make a short drive on our way back to Gainesville on Sunday.”

“Yay,” Patton cheered and the group began taking several trips to take all their things upstairs, Logan pausing a bit when they paused the apiary. Expectedly the other Sides froze in awe of it, but Logan was truly captivated by it. After they’d gotten all their stuff upstairs and the car locked, Virgil checked the fob twice to sate his own caution.

Logan went back to their room and barely had the self-control to unpack his computer before he was walking back down to the apiary.

He sat down on a bench and just stared at it. He had never considered magic to be used for such a purpose, but he supposed it was a mistake on his part to assume that magic was so fleeting and bombastic when all he had to go on were the heroes and villains that made up the city.

The logical Side wanted something like this, but not with bees, they didn’t currently have the space for a suitable habitat for them. Maybe ants would be better suited, and he supposed with enough bribery he could get Roman to help him construct it. But for that he needed to know how it was constructed. Did he need materials or was it a purely magical creation from the ground up?

So he requested an audience with one of the owners, figuring that if anyone would know that information it would be them.

A request that was only answered with a half-promise from the receptionist. “Mr. Underscore-Beloved should be in today, I can ask him if the owner is still here.”

“That is more than amenable,” Logan told them. “If they are too busy, I understand.”

After the conversation he waited a few minutes before he was told one of the owners was able to talk with him and it would be another couple of minutes before he was able to come down.

Logan was too busy observing the bees when the owner did come down, but Logan heard the conversation from where he was sitting.

“Hey, Lee, you said someone wanted to talk to me?”

“Yes they’re right over there.”

Logan looked over at the young man talking to the receptionist.

“Hey there,” the tall man greeted Logan as he walked over, he didn’t meet Logan in the eyes. “Ranboo Underscore-Beloved.”

“Sanders,” Logan greeted in return. The young man had a face mask covering his mouth, he looked human with one green eye and the other was red. Logan figured the man had to be around seven feet tall and had hair that was white on one side and black hair on the other. “I wanted to speak with you about the construction of the apiary you have, it’s quite well made.”

“Oh yeah, my husband constructed the enclosure,” Ranboo explained. “He loves bees.”

That surprised Logan, he hadn’t noticed a ring. But it was clear from the expression on Ranboo’s face that he was fond of his spouse so Logan held his tongue about marriage statistics and causations with age.

“Built the hives himself, cast the magic himself,” the young man explained, smiling at the enclosure as if his husband was standing in there.

Then Ranboo’s phone trolled and he immediately dug it out of his pants pocket.

“Pardon me,” he held up a finger, pulling out his phone and turned away. “Hey Bo, you saw my message?”

He paused at whatever answer he was receiving, “Yeah he is . . . no, yeah I’m in front of it . . . yeah, got it.”

Ranboo pulled away from his phone, “He’ll be here soon, he had a couple errands to run.”

“Oh, I don’t mind the wait,” Logan reassured. “I quite like looking at the apiary.”

“Yeah that’s,” Ranboo looked around. He reminded Logan quite a lot of Virgil. “Alright, we’ll just wait.”

And so began one of the most uncomfortable stretches of waiting Logan had dealt with in some time. If they’d just been waiting in silence it would have been fine but there were moments of quiet where the proprietor — or at least someone who Logan thought was the real owner’s son — was quiet and Logan got to concentrate on the apiary and the calming magic that came from it. But then there was the rest of the time where the young man tried to fill the dead silence with nervous small talk.

If Logan hadn’t been so used to communicating with Virgil and Eric he wouldn’t have known how to handle the situation.

After fifteen minutes of awkward, stilted waiting, the other owner showed up. He overlooked him at first because he was expecting someone older.

Someone much older. But Logan had been very much mistaken.

Wearing the same outfit as Ranboo, was a young man with dark brown hair that covered his eyes, and burns on the right side of his face. Where Ranboo was nervous, this young man was the opposite. His gait and stance betrayed someone with experience and confidence well beyond his years.

Logan thought the tall owner looked young but this shorter individual didn’t have the benefit of height to pretend to look older. He didn’t look older than nineteen, and Logan thought that he was probably much younger. This was a minor. Whoever had given these two a business license must have seen something great or lost their minds.

What caught Logan’s throat in his stomach was the papery-looking burn on the right side of his face. They looked old and Logan had to fight his more scientific mind to determine the origin of the burns.

He didn’t want to pry into the young man’s personal affairs.

“It’s, uh,” Ranboo paused. “Mr. Sanders, I believe?”

“Yes, that’s correct,” Logan answered.

“Thanks, bossman,” the shorter man walked over. This made the pair an Englishman and an American, which wasn’t an unexpected pairing in a city like this. “I’ll take it from here.”

“Mr. Underscore-Beloved?” Logan forced himself to say, he thought it was a completely ridiculous name but if it was his legal and more importantly preferred name, Logan had no choice.

“Yeah, you like my bees?” He asked. “They’re my best creation.”

“They certainly have the mark of an expert’s skill,” Logan complimented.

“Oh yeah,” the owner smiled. “Gettin’[1] the queens was the hardest part, actually.”

“You certainly spent a lot of time and energy into the habitat,” Logan commented while abjectly staring at the apiary. “Is it all magic or did you have the beehives constructed?”

“Built them myself,” Tubbo boasted proudly. “Planted the flowers with my husband. Poppies, mint, basil, foxgloves. The bees love them. Built this place so the bees and flowers can get some fresh air without makin’[2] the place drafty or lettin’[3] ‘em[4] out.”

“That’s quite ingenious,” Logan told him, looking back at Tubbo.

Ranboo had stepped away from the conversation when the receptionist called over to him, and then stepped outside for a bit while they were talking. Tubbo occasionally glanced over to keep tabs on where his husband was.

When Ranboo came back in, he was hot on someone else’s heels, another individual following the two.

“He’s talking with someone right now,” Ranboo warned loudly. He was talking to Quackity, a young man with a purple hoodie following close behind them, his hands buried in the pocket of his hoodie.

“I just wanna talk to the kid,” Quackity smiled. “Been ages since we caught up.”

“Quackity, you know you can’t just waltz in here,” Tubbo spat back, stepping in front of Logan. “If you want to talk then you’ll have to wait, I’m in the middle ‘a somethin’.”[5]

“Is it business?” Quackity smiled, staring right into Logan’s eyes. “I love talking business.”

“Not that type ‘a[6] business,” Tubbo glared at him. “We were talkin’[7] about my bees. I don’t step into your casino and talk about my bees there do I?”

Quackity frowned, finally looking away from Logan to Tubbo, “No, I guess you don’t.”

“Come on, he’s—” Purpled began before his companion cleared his throat.

“No,” Quackity interrupted. “Tubbo’s right, this is a paying customer and we are here on other business. I’m sorry we interrupted your little conversation.”

Logan wasn’t sure what to actually say at first but eventually managed, “It’s quite alright, a misunderstanding, I’m sure.”

“Yeah,” Quackity agreed, but with a tone that reminded Logan so much of Janus, but in all the wrong ways.

So Logan excused himself and left, trying to be calm but the instant he was out of sight of the group, he found himself running and hurried to their room. After a moment of fumbling with the keycard, Logan threw open the door and loudly shut it behind him, trying to steady his heart.

“Logan, what happened?” Virgil immediately demanded, looking Logan up and down for any signs of a fight.”

“You okay, Lo?” Patton asked at almost the same time.

“I think the owner of this establishment just saved me from the mafia,” Logan admitted.

“What?” Roman shouted in alarm. He and Patton just stared at him.

“I was talking with one of the proprietors of this establishment and another individual walked in to talk with him as well and he began to get . . .” Logan paused, unsure how to phrase his next words. “He began to get confrontational before the owner made him back off.”

“When was this?” Virgil demanded.

“Just now,” Logan answered. “I thought it was best for me to come back with the rest of you. The apiary is quite lovely, however.”

“Were you accosted? Does your honor need avenging?” Roman demanded.

“I am undamaged, but I feel it’s best if we remain together for the time being,” Logan told them.

“Of course, of course,” Roman smiled, walking over to stand next to Logan and hold out his elbow. “A nice, romantic vacation together, however will I cope?”

“Are we even ready to leave yet?” Logan asked as he linked arms with Roman.

“Nope,” Roman smiled. “But you’re mine now, come along my dear, we’ll go to the beach first and then what say you do some people watching. I know you love it.”

Logan and Virgil initially rolled their eyes, but neither of them could wipe the smiles off their faces. The logical Side felt safe and protected with his boyfriends around him, and that was all he needed right now. They were together, safe, and most importantly: alive. Logan could feel Roman’s pulse under his fingertips, hear him speaking. He was content. They were together and that was what mattered.

After they were finished packing their swimming bags, they went to the beach. Patton was quick to rush into the water as Logan took a seat on one of their towels and just watched Roman and Patton roughhouse in the water. Virgil flipped next to Logan, sprinkling some sand on Logan who gave him a look and dusted the sand off of the book he was reading.

“Have you put on sunscreen yet?” Logan asked. “Your skin is so pale you’re sure to burn.”

“Yeah, just want to make sure you were alright,” Virgil told him.

“I am sufficiently calm,” Logan answered, Roman and Patton walking over.

“You sure?” Patton asked. “This vacation is as much for you as it is for us.”

“I find it hard to relax,” Logan admitted as he leaned back on the beach towel, his book propped on his chest. “After the attacks and everything it seems like I should be braced for some attack . . . some adversary. And the illogical aspect of it is confusing me.”

“You’ve been our pillar for so long, maybe you need a bit of a break?” Patton reminded.

“To let you all do whatever you want with no voice of reason?” Logan chuckled, “as if.”

“Ehhhh,” Roman smiled, chewing on one of the ends of his lens frames. “We tried.”

Logan gave a little chuckle and all the other Core Sides felt at ease at the sound. It had been quite some time since they had heard the logical Side give an honest chuckle.

“Maybe this vacation is a good idea,” Logan decided, sighing deeply. “Perhaps I am tense because I’ve been on edge for too long?”

Virgil ran his fingers through Logan’s hair, “Leave the worrying to me, nerd. You can tell me all about how things are fine and we’ll both feel better.”

Logan smiled warmly at him, closing his eyes softly, “That seems like a good use of our time.”

The other three Sides smiled back at Logan before they began to well and truly relax for the first time in a long time.

What is your favorite thing about Mac computers? >> I don’t have a favourite thing about this era’s Mac computers, but my first computer was a Macintosh and I liked how easy it was to master the ins and outs of the OS. They used to be very simple and straightforward operating systems; don’t know if that still holds true, since I haven’t used a Mac since the great Apple overhaul.

What is your favorite thing about PCs? >> It used to be the level of customisation you could do -- Rainmeter was a lot of fun to play with when I had WinXP and Win7. They cut that potential with this Xbox-y interface, though, so I don’t really have a favourite thing about Windows anymore. I use it because it’s what’s most accessible, and because I like to play PC games.

What are some errands you need to run soon? >> ---

Have your parents ever tried to convince people there was something wrong with you, when they're "diagnosis" wasn't accurate? >> Not that I know of. My father just believed the shit that the crack psychologists in the city hospital told him, because he didn’t know any better. Which wasn’t necessarily his fault, but god, did it suck for me.

What was the last really good book you read, and what was it about? >> I liked Everything is Fucked by Mark Manson. I think he has interestingly pragmatic things to say.

What year do you want to go back to? >> No.

List 3 of your best memories, times you wish you could go back and repeat. >> No.

What color was your high school graduation gown? >> I don’t remember. I barely remember graduating.

How many graduation gowns have you worn? >> One.

Are your parents' dreams for you life different than your own? >> Obviously my parent had a completely different child in mind whenever he thought about me. He had no concept of who I actually was or who I might become.

Do your parents' dreams for you life change? >> ---

Have your dreams for your life changed? >> I don’t know if I ever had any actual, concrete dreams for my life. Fantasies, sure, but not like... aspirations. And I still don’t.

What are your dreams now? >> I dream of having good, mildly eventful days, and of being strong enough to weather the bad days with grace and self-compassion.

What was your dream as a child? >> Like I said in the question before last...

Are you offended at anyone right now? >> No.

Do you feel safe in your country? >> More or less. I mean, no one’s actively coming to kill me or make it impossible for me to live, and I’ve never really had that experience, so I guess I feel safe.

If applicable, do you feel safe at your school? >> ---

Would you ever want to learn sign language? >> I am learning sign language, incidentally.

What color is the sweatshirt you wear the most? >> I wear hoodies the most.

What's the last thing you had for dinner? >> A veggie burger and chips, because variety is apparently not the spice of my everyday life these days. (Not because I don’t enjoy variety -- I very much do -- but because variety is a bit beyond my capabilities at this time.)

How many meals do you eat a day? >> Two, on average.

What is your favorite Irish song? >> I don’t particularly have one, but there’s this one song I heard on youtube a while ago that I really, really enjoyed. It’s called Óró Sé do Bheatha Bhaile and you can listen to the version I heard here.

Have you ever performed a solo dance in front of a crowd? >> No.

Have you ever sung a solo? >> No. I am a passable singer, good in a choir and great at karaoke, but not the kind of singer that you’d go to if you want a solo.

Which insects are you afraid of? >> Wasps and suchnot.

Do you think it's silly to be afraid of an insect, when it's so tiny? >> No, I don’t think it’s silly at all. Tiny insects kill big humans all the time. Infinitesimally small microbes do too. Size is no direct indicator of threat.

Do you sleep with a teddy bear? >> I sleep with two teddy bears, a dog, a space turtle, and an otter.

Who would you like to talk to right now? >> Neh.

When was the last time you had a deep conversation with someone? >> I don’t remember. What even is a deep conversation anymore? I’m losing my ability to hold one from sheer lack of practice. But outworld aside, I do have them with Can Calah all the time.

Do you feel like anyone really knows you? >> Aside from inworlders, no.

What are you waiting for? >> Hm?

What do you feel the most at home doing? >> *shrug*

Are you a free spirit? >> Sure.

Living amongst the middle class and middle class-adjacent has definitely proven to me that despite the socioeconomic struggles, there is nothing about me as a person that would be improved by being middle or upper class. Maybe if I’d grown up that way I’d feel different, but that’s the thing -- I didn’t.

FA Cup: Brighton v Coventry City - can the Seagulls' story give the Sky Blues hope?

Coventry City’s long-suffering supporters can be forgiven for still having one eye on the past when they head to Brighton on Saturday in the FA Cup fifth round.

As the recent passing of ex-player Cyrille Regis[1] reminded the football world, it is now 31 years since the Sky Blues famously won the cup, in one of Wembley’s most fondly recalled great finals. And the intervening years have not been kind.

After a 34-year stay in English football’s top flight, the Sky Blues’ slide since exiting the Premier League in 2001 has been one of football’s most bewildering, yet upsetting sagas.

Three relegations, three home grounds, three different owners, 13 managers, countless mistakes, too many lost games of politics with a supportive local council, a temporary exile 33 miles away in Northampton, a briefly uplifting return to the Ricoh Arena, a change of landlord – and almost a decade now of protesting by their fed-up fans.

They head to the south coast playing in the fourth tier for the first time since 1958-59 and, at ninth in League Two, are the lowest-ranked side left in the competition.

But, if ever there was hope for a brighter future, they only have to look at this weekend’s Premier League opponents.

Exactly 10 years on from Coventry’s greatest day at Wembley, Brighton were on the brink of experiencing their darkest hour – and in danger of going out of business.

<!–

Had they lost at Hereford on the final day of the 1996-97 season, they would have been plunged into non-league football.

With half an hour left at Edgar Street that would indeed have been their fate, but Robbie Reinelt equalised in the 62nd-minute and sent the Bulls down instead.

Brighton lived to fight another day, even though they still lost their Goldstone Ground home to redevelopers. They had to suffer two seasons of doing a 150-mile round trip to Gillingham for home games, a journey that now almost makes the Sky Blues’ fortnightly jaunt to Sixfields for one season in 2013-14 seem like a breeze.

By the time Coventry themselves left their own long-time home Highfield Road to move to the Ricoh Arena in 2005, Brighton’s home was the meagre 8,850 capacity Withdean Stadium, a converted athletics stadium.

Not ideal after 95 years at the Goldstone Ground, but certainly an improvement on two seasons of making that trek to Priestfield. And, all this time, the relentless fans carried on campaigning, eventually got listened to, attracted interest from worthwhile investors and finally had a new 30,000 all-seater stadium built for them back in their own town.

The fact that promotion to the Premier League soon followed was the icing on the cake. But it is a dream for Coventry fans, like 52-year-old Moz Baker, to cling to.

What is the current state of Coventry?

With the prospect of having no home ground for next season, last week’s announcement that the club will be staying at the Ricoh[2] for at least another 12 months, might appear to be a positive development.

But Baker, chairman of the fans’ group the Sky Blue Trust and a Coventry supporter for over 42 years, fears the club will not progress under their owners of 10 years, Sisu.

“If the club is to start moving forward the current situation is not sustainable,” said Baker.

“Mark Robins is doing a great job as manager but there’s neither the ambition, inclination nor interest from our invisible owners to support the team’s efforts.

“The recent agreement to play another season at the Ricoh is a welcome relief to many City supporters fearful of having to repeat the disastrous period in Northampton, but a long-term deal to remain in Coventry, at the Ricoh, the only show in town despite any propaganda to the contrary, needs to be established very quickly.”

‘The relationship with fans is toxic’

<!–

As Coventry have slid down the divisions, the disaffected fans have also voted with their feet, which is a problem for a club who, as Wasps’ tenants at the Ricoh, raise money from matchday ticket sales but not those of food and drink at the stadium.

Although the Sky Blues top League Two’s average attendances charts this season, at 8,843, that figure is boosted by the 28,343 recorded for Saturday’s defeat by Accrington for the club’s community day when over 14,000 tickets were given out free.

“The relationship between owners Sisu and the fans is so toxic that it’s beyond repair,” said Baker. “Many lifelong fans have drifted away for ever. Some will only return when Sisu have gone. Some will only go to away matches regardless of how well the team perform at home.

“Under Sisu, home crowds have struggled to get anywhere near the 9,200 break-even figure.

“Last Saturday against Accrington we had a League Two record attendance of over 28,000. A fantastic initiative from the club, but 14,000 of those were free tickets given to local primary school children, whilst others paid only a fiver.

“A good number of those who went did so to help demonstrate the club’s potential fan base but won’t be back for the next home match against Lincoln nor further games whilst Sisu remain at the helm.”

Who will buy?

There is interest in buying the club, with former Sky Blues vice-chairman Gary Hoffman leading a consortium who have had several offers rejected[3] by Sisu boss Joy Seppala.

“The time has come for realism and pragmatism,” added Baker. “Seppala needs to accept that whatever figure she believes she has invested in the club, no potential investor will touch a club with few assets for the sort of crazy figures she has bandied about.

“The club’s future lies with investors who care about the future, with the financial acumen to move it forward, who will work with supporters’ organisations such as the Sky Blue Trust to allow fans, the people who love this club, the chance to invest and help return it to something approaching its former self.

“Anyone looking from afar can surely see the vast potential of a club with a rich history and a huge fan base, many of whom are lying in wait, ready to return.”

The Seagulls’ perspective – ‘don’t lose heart’

<!–

If a set of fans appreciate what Coventry supporters are experiencing, it is those of Brighton.

“The similarities between these two clubs are huge,” said lifelong Brighton fan Paul Samrah, who was one of the driving forces behind the Seagulls getting the Amex Stadium as part of the ‘Falmer for All’ campaign.

“Coventry are a club that have gone by the wayside, and you really feel for them. If they happened to win on Saturday, we would still be rooting for them in the next round. Brighton fans love an underdog.

“The key for them now is not to lose heart. Fan power really can deliver. Don’t resort to ridiculous tactics. Do it in humorous ways that can catch the eye. You never know who might be out there to take it forward.

“Look at AFC Wimbledon. I’m sure they never dreamt they could be a Football League club. And, 20 years ago, we never dreamt we could be a Premier League club.

“The darkest moment for me was the eve of our game at Hereford in 1997. You know that, 24 hours later, you’re either still a Football League club with no ground or a hopeless non-league club, that it is outside your control and that you’ve done everything you can.

“As it was, we won that day and it was the dawn of a new beginning. From the depths of despair, it’s amazing what you can achieve.”

How will it go on Saturday?

<!–

Coventry have so far disposed of non-league clubs Maidenhead and Boreham Wood, and were followed by almost 8,000 travelling supporters as they won at League One side MK Dons in round four to reach the last 16 for the first time since 2009.

But they have also already accounted for one Premier League side, having disposed of Stoke City in the third round, a defeat which cost Potters manager Mark Hughes his job.

And, after going out in the fourth round at then non-league Lincoln last season, Brighton boss Chris Hughton will be wary of striking the right balance between keeping his regular Premier League side fit and fresh for their fight against relegation and being strong enough to get past Coventry and reach the quarter-finals for the first time since 1986.

Brighton are on a four-game unbeaten run, which includes their fourth-round 1-0 win at Middlesbrough, having seen off rivals Crystal Palace in round three, both thanks to late Glenn Murray winners.

Coventry, meanwhile, go into the game off the back of three successive league defeats.

But this is the FA Cup. And upset though it would be if Coventry were to win, victory at a such a seemingly low point in their history would, after last season’s Checkatrade Trophy triumph,[4] in fact leave them one game away from Wembley for the second successive season.

‘False widow capital’ of UK adds country’s most venomous spider to pest control list as high numbers are found in Brighton homes

A named the UK’s fake widow money has employed spidermen to clear them from houses that were peoples’.

Citizens in Brighton have documented the absolute most issues with the venomous.

Britain’s many venomous spider may be the fake widow and appears to be growing in figures

Aliens don’t always land in America, but when they don’t there’s a superhero on vacation where they do

In Journey Into Mystery #83, strange rock men from Saturn invaded Norway only to be bested by the newly-minted Thor. This week, we’ve got much less interesting-looking fiends from the planet A-Chiltar III invading Greece, and being bested by Hank Pym and friend.

Well, I say invading, but it’s more of a scout mission to determine if Earth is worthy of invasion...Same difference.

Their scout mission consists of 1. kidnapping Grecian sailors and probing their minds to see if humans are intelligent enough to offer up a fight, and 2. building a 60-foot tall robot Cyclops to scare the locals away from their base of operation.

Rumors of this monsters don’t scare the vacationing Ant-Man and Wasp, who are visiting the country because they are just so good at superheroing that there is absolutely no crime to report of back home.

The Cyclops picks up their boat - the heroes meanwhile shrinking down to their insect sizes - and delivers them to the alien base. Doing so, the monster looks right in their direction, but doesn’t acknowledge their existence. This is apparently strange - I guess the whole ‘giant monsters can’t see you if you stand perfectly still’ schtick from Jurassic Park can’t being applied thirty years before the movie comes out.

When it comes to vision, as it does with many other things, It’s not only size that matters.

But let’s start with size, anyway.

Like all waves, light* bends when it travels through a hole/slit (or when it passes an obstacle). This phenomenon is known as diffraction, and the waves can constructively and destructively interfere with one another while they travel, to create a pattern on a future surface (like a wall, or a human retina). If the hole is circular - like with a camera’s aperture or a human eyeball’s pupil - that pattern is a series of disks around what you might consider the ‘original’ beam (the image below is of laser light). The dark areas are where the waves destructively interfere:

This pattern is called an “Airy disk”, named after the man who first wrote a paper explaining the physics behind the phenomenon. If you have two light sources (e.g. two stars) entering the same circular hole, the patterns will overlap and - if they’re too close together - you might not realize they’re actually distinct objects.

Whether or not the objects can be identified as separate is defined by the Rayleigh Criterion (named after the man who also gave us why the sky is blue). In words, that is:

“2 sources are resolved from one another when separated by a minimum of the radius of the Airy disk.” 

In pictures, that is:

In symbols, that is (Math averse people, shield your eyes):

θ = 1.22 * λ / D 

The θ (the greek letter “theta”) stands for the angular resolution of our optical device in question (so, an eyeball), and the distance between the peaks in the “Rayleigh Criterion” curve above. The λ (the greek letter “lambda”) stands for the wavelength of light entering the optical device in question. And the D (the greek letter “you know what a D is”) stands for the diameter of the optical device in question’s aperture (so, the pupil width).

Let’s use a human example. An average pupil has a diameter between 2 and 9 millimeters depending on lighting conditions. White light is made up of a range of wavelengths - roughly 400nm (violet) to 700nm (red). Using median values of 5mm and 550nm we get 

θ = 1.22 * 0.00000055m / 0.005m = 0.0001342 radians, or 0.007689°, or 27.68" (that’s arcseconds, not inches)

That means that under the most ideal conditions, any eye with this pupil size looking at this color light cannot resolve any objects that are closer together than ~28 arcseconds (This is a small number; it makes sense that it’s a small number because we’d all be walking around like we needed high-powered glasses, otherwise). The bigger the θ, the blurrier the image.

A Cyclops eye ten times bigger than a human’s would therefore theoretically be able to differentiate two objects ten times closer together than a human would (from the same distance).

But the human eye is not, as we call it, “diffraction limited”. Visual acuity in the most perfect eyes is also limited by the density of photoreceptors actually capturing the photons, and the density of ganglion cells that relay that information to the brain. Both are densest in a 1.5mm-wide depression in the retina called the fovea, where it’s exclusively populated by smaller-than-usual cones. There, each ganglion reports info from only a few cones. Further away, ganglia are responsible for far more photoreceptors (now rods instead).

The actual density varies from human to human, but the average fovea has about 150,000 cones per square millimeter. The further you get away from the fovea, the number of cones drops exponentially - rods take their place, but also drop in number as you get even further away. This is why your eyes have to move when you read - the amount of space your fovea covers is very small, so your eyes constantly have to move to get a clear shot of the next words.

Some bird species actually have two foveae in each eye (though not equally dense), so they don’t have to look at an object straight ahead to get a good view of it.

Speaking of birds...

The largest bird eye belongs - perhaps unsurprisingly - to the ostrich, which is about twice the width of a human eye.** But the birds with the best vision - again perhaps unsurprisingly - are raptors. While not the biggest eyes, they are larger for their relative size (about 1.4 times bigger than non-birds of prey with the same body mass). 

Unlike humans, raptor eyes aren’t round - they’re more tube-shaped. (This also means that they can’t move their eyes around in their skull, and have to compensate by turning their head everywhichway, but that’s beside the point.) This lengthened eye’ball’ combines with a higher photoreceptor density in the primary fovea to produce higher resolution vision than your average human being, and likely the best vision in the animal kingdom.

So maybe the Cyclops has a much larger eye, but fewer photoreceptors - maybe that’s why it can’t see them?

Turns out no. Hank and Janet figure out it’s a robot that’s too busy being controlled by alien brain waves (that operate in the same manner but a different frequency as Marvel’s ants do) to notice puny insects. Hank slips inside the machine (by being swallowed) to take control of it himself, while Janet gets some wasps to attack the pre-invasion force. The aliens interpret this as all humans having superpowers and therefore too difficult to conquer - just like the stone men of Saturn - and leave Earth, never to return.

Hank orders the robot Cyclops to walk into the ocean as far as it can go before its limbs rust off and never return. And the comic ends with Janet saying they should never take another vacation, ever again.

* It’s also a particle, but we’re ignoring that for the moment.

** The largest eye in the animal kingdom, meanwhile, likely belongs to the colossal squid - 27 cm (11in) across.

Safeguarding Homes and Communities in Sussex and West Sussex by Timely Wasp Nest Removal 

In this article, we delve into the significance of timely wasp nest removal in Sussex and how it contributes to the well-being of both residents and the environment.

The Buzzing Menace:

Wasp nests are more than just a summertime nuisance; they can pose a serious threat to public safety, particularly in densely populated areas like Sussex. The presence of wasp nests near homes, schools, and public spaces can result in an uptick in incidents of stings, leading to allergic reactions and, in severe cases, hospitalisation.

The territorial nature of wasps makes them highly aggressive when their nests are threatened, underscoring the importance of addressing these issues promptly.

Public Health Concerns:

Beyond the physical harm caused by wasp stings, these buzzing insects contribute to public health concerns in various ways. The residue from wasp nests, including droppings and decomposed insects, can become a breeding ground for bacteria and allergens, posing additional risks to the community.

Timely removal of these nests is crucial not only to prevent the immediate dangers of stings but also to safeguard the overall health of Sussex residents.

Environmental Impact:

Sussex's rich agricultural areas, particularly in West Sussex, face unique challenges when wasp nests interfere with crop production. The impact extends beyond the agricultural sector, affecting the delicate balance of local ecosystems.

Large wasp colonies can disrupt the population dynamics of other insects, which, in turn, influences the birds and animals that depend on them for sustenance. Recognizing the ecological ramifications of wasp nests underscores the need for proactive measures.

The Importance of Professional Pest Control:

Attempting to remove a wasp nest without professional assistance can be hazardous and is not recommended. DIY attempts often lead to agitated wasps, resulting in an increased risk of stings and potential harm.

Professionalpest control services in West Sussex are not only equipped with the knowledge and experience required for safe removal but also possess the protective gear necessary to mitigate risks effectively.

Environmental Responsibility:

Sussex residents, who hold a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of their surroundings, must prioritise responsible pest control practices. Reputable pest control services in the region employ environmentally friendly methods, ensuring that the removal of wasp nests does not inadvertently harm the local ecosystem or wildlife.

This commitment to sustainability aligns with the values of the community, fostering a balance between pest control necessities and environmental stewardship.

Conclusion:

In Sussex, where the allure of nature meets the warmth of close-knit communities, the timely removal of wasp nests emerges as a proactive and indispensable measure. Far beyond simply mitigating immediate threats, this practice is a commitment to public health, environmental preservation, and the overall harmony of Sussex.

By recognizing the importance of professional pest control services and acting promptly, residents can relish the beauty of Sussex without the disruptive buzzing menace of wasp nests. Pest control in Sussex is not just a service; it is a shared responsibility to ensure the well-being of the people and the environment they call home.
