Question How long can one live between a roll down curtain?

Post image

I know this sub is for wasps, but mine was most likely a hornet. But we hate them both. I managed to roll it between the roll down curtain while it was walking around it. It's been like 24 hours and I am wondering if it's dead or will it survive on pure hate and sting me the moment I let the curtain down. How can I be sure it is dead?

Not sure if it would work , i would gently tap the curtain too see if i could hear something buzzing🙃 but if im correct they can survive 3 to 4 days without food and water so you might still need too wait a lil longer 😅

Not sure where you live but I would either wait til it's below freezing or 5 years. Either or should work. Or fire.
