No death throes stings were happening. I had to be sure.
I generally just take one of the towels that's always laying around in a kitchen, fold it up several times and then grab the wasp using the towel like a pot holder. I also have one of the leather gloves that I use for outdoor work laying around and use that. Various wasps get in far more often that the grandsons would prefer.
