Flying Friends
So I went out to work on my project car from Az today and opened the door to a nice little surprise. A huge wasp, it so kindly darted right for my face. As I ran in side it chased me, I ran in one door and out the other with it following me. I had to run back by and grab the keys and kick the door shut. I saw it flying around the door and kept running. My phone is in side the car and the window is down and it looks like its going to rain. There must be a nest somewhere in the car. I think im going to go get a bug bomb(for the house) and run by and toss it into the car.

Yeah, I've actually had one in my car before (my old daily driver). The best I could figure out is he squeezed through the rubber seal around the door (which was kinda old). I don't know about your car, but my miata has some obvious gaps between the soft top and windows. I'm sure it's cool. If you see another one in the car, then I would check under the dash.
Good luck.
