if you make them the right size you can put staples on the end. then they become killer wasps. Not saying you should though(disclaimer).

At my school we fold the paper and then put two staples in it and bend it. Short chunks of straw work too.

Dec 21, 2007. 6:19 PMkhd1991 says:
At my school, we call them wasps... They are only called hornets around here if they have a needle or some other sharp object sticking through the middle of the tip. I don't do that though, i only make my own wasps to use... nobody else makes them my way though
Aug 8, 2007. 7:52 PMErik Lindemann says:
Oh, alrighty.

PAPER HORNETS ARE BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why do you have to put paper on the paper clips? the paperclip itself is stealthy and painful.
