This is No joke folks, but tonight while sitting at the comp, a Gnat flew past my face at the same time as a Giant Wasp flew by my ear. I immediately ran for the fly-killer spray due to being allergic to these things. Despite having 2 birds in the room, I HAD to get rid of the wasp. After spraying, then swatting the thing, it turned out to be almost an Inch in length and I stood on it, to ensure it was dead. This is the first time I can recall seeing one this late in October and of this size.
