[tinkerbell23]

How can I help it!?

Im trying some sugar water!!!

Have moved him near the door on a bit of paper!

Dont want to chuck him oustside... its cold x

Do you have a fly swatter handy ?
They like a pat on the back.

I'd help it in exactly the same way that it would help me, by pollinating something nearby then acting all buzzy and misunderstood.

Otherwise out the window with it.

[Rockrose]

sugar water on a teaspoon should do it

[spathiphyllum]

You can either, help it out by making its ending as painless as possible by squishing it with kitchen roll OR you can pop it on a spoon with some sugar water (or honey) then put it outside and let nature take its course

[tinkerbell23]

I dont love them.... ive been stung and it hurt like fffffffffff.....

But hes on the floor & struggling!!!! X

[ummmm]

Sugar water is all you can do really.

I hand a bee in here. I opened the windows and thought it had made it's way out. Next day it was on the kitchen floor. I just put some sugar water down. When I went back in it was gone. I'm allergic to bees otherwise I would have stayed with it.

[tinkerbell23]

He has sugar water & looked like he was taking it.... hopefully will perk up then fly away xx

[Sqad]

Stamp on it.

[tinkerbell23]

End of life do you think though!? I assumed it was a youngster!!!!!

[tinkerbell23]

Aww sqad I cant!

I used to kill them but i just cant now... hes not doing any harm xx

[ummmm]

Don't kill it unless the sugar water doesn't work.

Wasps are nasty things but they still pollinate and we need that.

[retrocop]

CPR?

[Rockrose]

give it a few minutes to revive after the sugar water then pop it out on a plant

[Calicogirl]

I don't kill anything either if I can avoid it Tinks- live and let live as much as you can x

[Sqad]

The sugar water has a high osmotic pressure compared to the body fluids of the dying wasp.You are torturing it, dehydrating it and killing it. Well done.

[spathiphyllum]

lol ^ yeah i mean just squish it, it's almost definitely lost. Put it out of its misery.

[rowanwitch]

It's the cold, it's out too soon. It will die, and be replaced by a few thousand more

[Old_Geezer]

You, yourself, said it was dying, in the title.
If sugar water revives the dying, I bags the right to patent it !

[spathiphyllum]

It probably got confused by the lovely weather we had over the weekend

[retrocop]

I have never wronged an onion but they always make me cry. Nothing more humane than the sole of a shoe to a dying creature. I wouldn't report on answerbank that I was watching my pet Labrador writhe in agony in it's death throes.
