When having dinner on the terrace or a picnic in the park on a warm summer's day, you might be forced to cover all food and drinks to keep wasps away. Having to lift a plate from your glass every time you want to take a sip from your cocktail doesn't exactly scream chill summer vibes, so instead, you can try to lure wasps away from your table. Kerstin Effers from a German consumer advice centre recommends placing something sweet or a piece of meat at some distance. Biologist Ursula Bauer also finds this method works. She recommends using a piece of sausage or some ripe fruit to lure the insect...
