now that they're dead (exterminator came)
I realize I was not actually having auditory hallucinations
it was just fucking wasps scratching and grinding and humming in my attic

I literally thought I was going crazy and told my therapist I was hearing shit
the scraping and scratching noises is what really got me, I didn't know wasps did that

I just need everyone to know how mortifying, yet relieving, of a realization this has been

normally, I'm not.
there's always wasps and shit in the garden, they're great pollinators, I don't mind them as a rule
but my attic was absolutely fucking INFESTED
the exterminator went up there and I just heard "....oh...oh no...oh my god"

there were probably 50 nests up there, granted I'm sure some were old, but it was BAD. I couldn't even go outside without seeing at least a dozen wasps at any given spot around my house

it was so many.
my landlord came yesterday and patched the vents where they were coming in from outside so it doesn't happen again

can relate, there are mice in the walls here and sometimes i can hear them running around in the kitchen ceiling when i'm watching tv but the worst by far is when they're in the bedroom walls at night

I'm glad I'm not alone lolol
if you rent tho you should definitely tell your landlord about the mice, they can cause an electrical fire if they chew on wires (which they love to do)
