| I did not know we had them here in Kentucky till Pam sat in a nest of them doing one her flower beds just about 10 feet off of the house. They ate her up. She found that Preparation H stops the stinging. | |

| Ouch! Those things are painful. But I'm wondering exactly how she discovered that Preparation H was effective? You did say she sat on a hill, right? What's good for your ass for one condition is good for another, is that how it works? | |

| Yeah, that's what they do. And I've spent thousands over the years doing everything possible to get rid of them but all they do is move to another mound. The kids learned real quickly to not get near those things. | |
