Reading all of this I'm thinking to myself 'Thank God you don't get wasps in Winter.'
I seem to remember one of my old friends strangely attracted wasps. When the stung him, it was always in crazy places. His eardrum, inside his throat. Up his nose. Hmm.
Never been stung...yet. Lucky me.

I've read the conclusion, but Raz, why November? It gets colder by the day. And by the end, it snows like no-ones business, or at least, it used to.
