What we call Yellow Jackets are tiny wasps the size of a honey-bee or smaller. They nest underground.

When you say "wasps" I think of these guys

My experience with wasps it they're more or less docile unless you mess

Of course, their definition of "mess with them" is pretty broad, but they
don't
seem to be as aggressive as Yellow Jackets. Yellow Jackets are the worst.
They'll attack just because they see you.


I'm pretty sure what you call yellow jackets is what we call wasps.

After getting my smoker, I have rarely fired up my propane brazier.
Last
night I decided to use it. I took the cover off, fired it up and went
back
into the house too season some beef. When I went out a few minutes
later
to
put the burgers on there were a few wasps buzzing around the back of
the
barbecue.
By the time I went out to flip them, that number had risen to a dozen
or
more, and they seemed a bit angry. As the last time I got stung by a
wasp I
was on an IV drip for a week, I asked my wife to bring the meat in.
Apparently, there was a wasp nest in the firebox.......

Have fun

Bill
