The message
from "Mary Fisher" contains these words:

You must have different wasps from us. Ours don't sting unless you poke
'em first.

Or otherwise (innocently perhaps) threaten them.

Well clearly, sitting on them or catching one in the fold of your elbow
will fail to impress upon them your otherwise gentle intentions.

Quite. People often claim that they did nothing but if a wasp lands on you
and you move and a bit of shirt brushes against it it will defend itself
from the attacker. It knows nothing about shirts.
