What's the best small engine bug repellant? Original Message May 30, 2011 8:14 am
Insect eggs inside a Toro Powerlite intake manifold. The machine had been sitting under a tarp for a week and there was a lot of rain. Some sort of bug made its way through the carb throat back to the dark manifold.

Certain kinds of wasps like to crawl into holes to make their nests. I rolled out one of my old Yamahas the other day and I noticed a wasp flying in and out of the hole in the end of the rubber hand grips on the handle bar. Top speed for that wasp was only a little over 15 mph.
