undignified end

This morning I hoovered up way over 100 dead wasps in the loft (I stopped counting). As someone who likes to honour all of creation, this didn't quite feel right but I couldn't think of a better solution. There was still one alive and who knows how many more, so I investigated options. I refused to call a company entitled "death to pests" cos who wants a van with that written on the side outside their home? Certainly not me. I rang someone else who kindly said that they probably won't be around much longer anyway so I could save myself the £50 and just wait it out. Whilst I really appreciated his kindness, I wonder if he gets much business or talks himself out of it regularly?

In better nature news, I love being able to pop into the garden and eat a tomato straight from the plant :) That is a more fitting ending, fulfilling its destiny (from a human perspective).
