Wasp Chasing. My mean sister told me that if a wasp wouldn't leave me alone in the garden, all I had to do was run around the garden twice and into the house as fast as possible. We had a massive garden. So I did this several times-it worked! Of course it did, by a couple of metres it probably flew away/got bored while I was running my little legs off round and round the garden CONVINCED it was right behind me.
