All I can say is
What a load of pretentious nonsense

If like me you are Hypersensitive to wasp stings or you are even
more
unlucky to be Allergic to the stings when just one sting can be
life
threatening, then you do all to remove any chance.
If you have a nest in your garden where there is no way of avoiding
it .or
of getting your house full of wasps.
When it comes down to me or them then there is no choice.

They have to go

P.S. If you have a man eating Lion, then you remove that Lion and
don't try
to kill all the Lions on the plain.

I doubt if you will be able to persuade David to abide by the usual
rules of netiquette. Others have tried and failed, so you will just
have to struggle through his contributions, which are usually worth
reading, despite the missing context, snip marks and attributions.
