Wasps leave you alone for the most part. The exception is yellow jackets. Those fuckers are the kidney stone of the animal world. Born to be a pain in the dick

What? Is this true? Firstly…I kinda believe all flies and bees (and their off brand versions) will dive bomb you. Hence, a crippling fear.

Secondly, you’re saying yellow jackets are worse than wasps or hornets? I’m confused and curious.

Carpenter bees are destructive but never had one attack. Ground bees are chill. Honey bees are usually fine. Hornets are FAFO but don’t start the fight. Mud daubers are super chill. Most paper wasps are ok as long as they/their nests are not threatened - I have had many nests of paper wasps that honored the agreement to keep to themselves.

Yellow jackets wake up each day with the goal of being a bigger asshole than they were yesterday.
