Danger Lurks Here

Does this look like a dangerous place to you? I didn't think so either. Late yesterday, after another very hot day, I decided the plants needed watering again. So I puttered about watering ... minding my own business. When I got to the fiscus tree on the other side of the steps, all of a sudden, I was in such pain. Something had stung me just below my left eye. I immediately stopped watering and rushed inside for some Bynadryl. Took the medicine and put ice to my face. Oh, it did hurt. I suffered all through "Big Brother". It had finally eased off before I went to bed. Today my husband went to investigate. He found a hornets nest in one of his boots that sit on some shelves behind the fiscus tree. He has been spaying the nest off and on all day. He says tonight he will definitely take care of it. I just hope he doesn't get stung!
