JSA Aude Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 This year we seem to have lots of horrid flying things, 2 parts to the body with dangly bits hanging off below - anyone a clue what they could be, do they sting, etc. Have searched for hornets, bees, etc on the site with no success. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viv Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Do they look like they have a T-bar hanging down and are very black? I don't know what they are called but have seen lots of them in packs or whatever flying thing fly in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DZ Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 I hope they are not what I know as "frelon" - really nasty if it stings, apparently. Check this website out: http://patwo.com/insect/frelon.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
