Every boat I work on the first thing I do is look for wasp nests to kill. Cant stand them buggers!

IM the same way.... If a wasp gets close to me the hair on my neck stands up and you can see the "goose bumps" come out on my arms. I will inspect everything i work on in the yard extremely well before i mess with it...

Hot, soapy water will kill the crap out of some wasp...

You took the words right out of my mouth.........
On occasion, I will let the king snakes live. That is when I am not so freaked out that I notice what they are, but still don't want to get too close to them.

Spiders definitely but watching someone almost choke to death ranks really high!

Hands down lightning. Got caught out in the Gulf a couple of years ago in a squall. It went from dead calm, flat seas to all hell breaking loose. We had no choice but to point the boat North and centerpunch the storm. It had to take several years off of my life because I had an elevated heart rate for about one hour. The Good Lord must have decided it wasn't time to take us yet but we didn't know that at the time...

Im afraid of spiders. thats about it. and just like yall said b/c the possibility of them being poisonous. I got bit by a recluse in high school and it left a big hole in my leg. its not bad now.
i like snakes. as long as they arent poisonous, i will try and catch them. used to catch ribbon snakes and king snakes all the time. i also used to have a ball python. talk about used to scare some ppl with "Fred," my python!

Snake story.

About 1996 or so, my friend Bill and I go out to our hunting club lease to start making a clear cut. The club had decided to make a few to grow up briar patches for the deer. We had to cross a 20' wide ditch to get where we were going. There was a logjam of logs and lumber that had washed from I-10 and Laplace that we had been using to get into that section of woods that season. So we go in early, 'bout 7am or so, and get to cutting down trees, and making brush piles to burn at a later date. About 11:30 it's hot as a mother, and we are out of water. We head back to the trucks, and when we get to the logjam, the freaking thing is in the sun, and COVERED with snakes!!! At least 15 or so. We were like, *****!!!!! I had my 9mm with 2 extra mags, Bill had his .44 with 4 speed loaders. At least 2 of the snakes were Cotton Mouths. We opened up on them *****es like it was WW3!!! There were chunks of snake flying all over, and they were doin' the Boot Scoot Boogie trying to get away. I emptied all 3 mags, and Bill shot all but 2 of his rounds. He saved 2 in case there were stragglers!!!

The next weekend, we went out there with 5 gallons of diesel, 2 gallons of gas, and some old motor oil that needed disposing. We doused that log jam with a mixture of that and burnt it. Then we had a few other guys bring us a 25' pipe and welded a piece of 12" wide grate on it and used come alongs to put it in place. Haven't used a log jam to cross anything since.

Momma mocking birds. Before you laugh, go near a nest and see what happens. They attack like a damn feeding hawk.
