We named the following experience Code W. For wasp.

Long story short. We found a big red wasp in our kitchen during lunch. We're sisters, we don't like bugs, and we didn't want to get stung. 
So we:
1) threw a shoe at it's spot on the ceiling then ran, squealing, and locked ourselves in our room (fail)
2) tried spraying flowery perfume (bees/wasps like flowers, right?) leading to the open front door to lure it out (fail)
3) Held the running vacuum hose towards it, hoping it would fly close enough to suck it up (fail)
4) spritzed it enough with hairspray to make it mad, repeat #1
5) ***vacuum hose is left running this whole time, by the way***
In the safety of our locked bedroom, we reviewed our options. I bravely volunteered my life and suited up to do the final plan. I wore glasses, scarves, a hoodie, sweats, and headbands to cover as much of me as possible; then armed with hairspray and roach spray, I went out to face my doom. 
I screamed like a fierce warrior (for reals) and hosed a good half can of both hairspray and roach spray simultaneous, soaking it's angry wings to the ground, then sucked it up in the vacuum. There was white roach spray all over the kitchen floor and table to prove it. The wasp died, I came out victorious. And with an awesome outfit on. 

Hence concludes Code W.
