Mud Dauber nests.... packed with spiders

[Caution]

Genocide, imo. Those are mass graves.

Sounds like another term for 'Ditch Pig'.

rofl, I thought of that thread too.

Dirt Daubers (aka Mud Daubers... Same thing) can definitely sting but IME they've always been pretty friendly. After my brother built his cabin a bunch got in and built nests and at first I was freaked out but generally they'll just fly around you without bothering you. When they do come down to check you out unless you swat at them, they'll just get bored and fly away.

If you swat them they you could say they died of boredom.

TS maybe you're onto something here.

Know how its a delicacy in China to have birds nest soup? How about mud dauber nest soup? Protein-packed deliciousness.

tarantula hawk>mud dauber

Mud Dauber's sting is TERRIBLE.

Very, very painful.

The species we have up here are almost impossible to get to sting you. Very mild temperaments.

I don't know why I saw "packed with spiders" on the thread title and still clicked through. Fuuuuuuuuuuck no.

Not only do they take on spiders, but they can also bring down planes.

I, for one, will be happy to help the mighty dauber in his quest to rid the earth of arachnids.

Anyone that believes in god after seeing this thread is a sub mental cretin.

they are great since they keep the spider population under control..

i hate them since they put their damn large turd nests all over my house.. scraping up their nests unloads a shit load of paralyzed spiders all over the place.. ughhh

Wasp 1: We do WHAT?!

Wasp 2: It's simple. We search out spiders, find them, attack them, bring them back, and stuff them in our hives.

Wasp 1: Spiders?

Wasp 2: Yes, spiders.

Wasp 1: What about flies. Can we just get flies?

Wasp 2: Spiders

Wasp 1: How about moths. They're big... docile.

Wasp 2: Spiders

Wasp 1: Caterpillars?! Juicy, slow, lacking 8 legs and fangs.

Wasp 2: ...........Spiders.

Wasp1: fuck!

As someone who is terrified of wasps/hornets... i now type to you from behind the grave after seeing the "mud dauber" pictures.. do no want.

Almost every picture of these has a brown widow in it.
Must suck to be a brown widow:
