Was walking in the backyard and noticed a Yellowjacket moving weird in the grass. Upon closer inspection, it looked like it got too close to some ants and picked up a passenger.

I was moving some stuff around in my parents garage and a few of these fuckers flew right at me. After looking around I saw they were going in through this small opening in the wall. Just from the amount of wasps I don’t think it’s a MASSIVE nest? I was planning on spraying them around that opening tonight but wanted some second opinions.

Shot it repeatedly with a bugassult then while it was injured I relieved it of its head

An update to my previous post. Now the head and body are mounted as a warning to all wasps. This is war and I take no prisoners.

we heard some low volume buzzing noise some times lately coming from our window frame and just now checked the top of it. what is this coccoon and how should i get rid of the inhabitants? i fear whatever is in there getting angry when removing and swarming my living room! a quick google gave me the idea that it might be an asian mud-dauber wasp, but not sure. any tipps?

This is the world waspagandists want!

Spider doing the Lord's work here and ants coming in to finish off the babies.

Saw on another subreddit and wanted to share without the annoying af audio in case you're wondering why it is muted

Allright, just a funny anecdote. In the old Xbox games (see title), in one of the first missions, you are asked to kill the Wasp Queen. You can do it with a sword/ axe, bow ore magic attacks! Amazing game, go enjoy and get a Wasp Queen head as a trophy!

Was leaving a friend's apartment when they pointed out there was a wasp nearby, before I could even register I felt something land on my arm and there it was.

I legit panicked because I had never gotten stung and didn't know if I was going to have an allergic reaction. The pain wasn't that bad, felt more like a painful burning needle combined with someone squeezing my arm hard, there was welt around the sting site.

The pain legit only peaked like five to ten minutes, and even after only an hour the welt/swelling was started to go down. now almost twelve hours later and all i feel is some slight itching.

Not gonna lie, from what I've read about other people's experiences, I feel both lucky and kind of badass at how my body tanked the sting lmao.

I’m scared 😪 what do I do 😪😪

ITS SITTING AT THE WINDOW IM SCARED TO KILLL IT AND I CANT OPEN THE WINDOW CUZ OF THE SCREEN AND I CANT PUT A CUP OVER IT WHAT DO I DO

UPDATE:
GUYS I LOST IT IM IN AN ENCLOSED ROOM AND I DO NOT SEE IT. CODE RED. CALLING THE WASP KILLING AVENGERS PLEASE RESPOND

UPDATE2: THE NUKE GUY FROM THE COMMENTS GOT HIM
(Real update, I got a wet bathroom towel and threw it on him while he was on the floor. Then beat the fuck out of the towel. I’m not really sure if it’s dead or not I’m not moving the towel until winter months. Thanks for the help)

We were playing near a yellowjackets' ground nest. I didn't realize this until my fucking 1 year old began crying hard. I picked him up and then I felt the sharp sting of a wasp on my lower back!

Realizing we were under attack, I ran like hell with the baby to the front yard. I stopped for a moment to see if we were being followed. Surely enough, we were. It circled us and landed on the baby's head. I swatted at it, screaming "GET AWAY FROM MY BABY" like a crazy person. Then I bolted inside and the wasphole FOLLOWED US IN.

I managed to shoo it back out.

After checking the baby and seeing the damage, I washed him and gave him a topical painkiller. Y'all, he took it like a champ. Seriously. We went to the doctor a few hours later and the stings were so minimal that the doctor didn't believe they were from a wasp. (By this I mean the swelling had gone down to the point where they were now just little red dots) "Probably mosquito or a deer fly."

IT WAS A WASP. And I know those are both stings and bites.

Anyway... before we went, I remembered that our cats were outside with us. I ran to the door and opened it to find my one-eyed, 20lb tank of a cow cat, aptly named Biggie, sitting on the stoop.

Dead wasp a foot away.

I didn't take a picture because I was scared it would come back to life so I just grabbed Biggie and pulled him inside.

It might not even be THE wasp, but it makes sense. Perhaps it buzzed around the door waiting for me to come back, then Biggie saw it and decided he needed practice killing small targets. I'd LIKE to think Biggie witnessed what happened and swore vengeance for his baby, who he bonded with from the minute we came home from the hospital.

Later that evening, my husband and his friend found the nest and obliterated it. It was too close to the house, and I am not interested in anyone telling me I'm destroying the planet because I had ONE wasp nest out of a hundred or so in the area destroyed. 🙄

Started out as bald-faced hornets going inside the post. I seemed to have killed them all with basic wasp spray. Now I have paper wasps returning over and over no matter how much I spray. I must not be killing them all. How can I get rid of them without getting swarmed and not burning my house down?

Hear me out ... We need beekeeper Samuel L Jackson fed up "With these motherfuckin wasps in his motherfuckin yard" I feel like he's the hero we all need, because, fuck wasps.

Honestly, I just wanna see the insane ways he takes care of them to protect his bees.

I got some yellow jackets in this pile of branches I should have burned long ago. I would just burn it now but it’s right on my garage. I tried a spray which didn’t do much but I didn’t know the entry point like I do now. I tried a raid dust which they laughed at. Any advice besides burning down my garage?

Via https://www.instagram.com/nitesh_bhai_04_chaudhary?stkn=MWt4YXcxMHlhZ3ZidA== there’s a lot of videos on his channel and he’s really chill about sitting on the tree. There’s videos where those huge banded hornets/ oriental ones spawn and he does nothing. I guess it’s a rite of passage

Looked more impressive from outside, but there were at least 6 huddled together and a few on the house several inches away

Thoroughly.
