Default swarms!~

Ellos my new brothers

Well.... I have always loved the s2k. Most sexiest car ever produced hands down. Butcha know being a new and first time owner of a topless ride I was just wonderin.... Has anyone ever encountered a swarm? Living in socal I have seen nearly 4 within the past year. A super shiny red color doesnt help the situation either I can only imagine how lame the bug issue with you yeller owners out there is. But the question is... If you're stuck in a NON-mobile situation where the swarm is RIGHT THERE, what do you guys think is the best way to react?

A jar of honey. Just throw it at anyone close and hope it breaks and diverts the swarm in their direction.

And if the swarm was in the area of your interior when you try and put it up?

Watered down Honey in a Spray Bottle or a Super Soaker for those really Big Swarms should do the trick.

i live near DC and i had a bee land on my sunglasses infront of my right eye... i almost shit myself. I had to relax and then flick it off as i was driving.
also, i had a wasp fly in and land on the driver side of the center console... again, i almost shit myself. I got a napkin and caught him and threw him out.

Set your hair on fire and shake your head around. You are bald, you say? Pour gasoline over your head, set your head on fire and shake your head around.

Years ago I did have a bee fly up the leg of my shorts and sting me on the jewels bag while driving on the expressway. Hurt like hell. Had to pull over for a bit.
