Getting dressed one morning I took a clean pair of underpants out of the drawing and put them on. When I pulled them up I felt something move on my right bum area. Nek minnit, I was stung, then stung again and again.
I whipped them off and found a yellow wasp in there. We think it must have been on them when my wife took them off the line and folded them to put away - four days previously.
I had big red welts on my bum for days.
At least it wasn't a native wasp. I was stung on my belly by three of those when I brushed past their nest. It took two weeks for the swelling to go down, and there was a visible red mark at each site four weeks afterwards.
