Mmm. That's both sides of my family. I'm fuked.
Great bunch of lads, in fairness.

If you are too close to the nest, they will send out scouts, and then you can expect an attack. Kill them first.

I already said that in my first comment.
Theyre an important part of the ecosystem though. Pest killer number one. If there's constantly wasps settling near you, there's a reason.

Do they just like, not have screens over there? I stayed in Germany once and the whole house had no screens on the windows, then I started noticing that I couldn't see them anywhere I went.
Screens exist, but they are probably not very common.

The nest is my primary target. Cover up, knock it down, destroy it, walk away for a bit, they all leave. Fuk wasps.
Hmm. When you consulted "every source I could find about wasps in the US" apparently you chose to disregard the direct feedback of people on the front line. Hmm.
- it would be illegal to go after the nest in Germany. At least generally. There are of course exceptions, but you’d need to get the authorities involved and a specialist remove them.
- you’d often need to dig, because the most annoying wasps (common wasp and German yellowjacket) often have their nests underground
-
Because I just glanced at the picture while hiding my phone from customers and thought they were bees
I still think they look like bees. I've only ever known wasps to be black
-
A bee is not a type of wasp. They are both Hymenoptera, one of the 4 types of insects, but that would be the same as saying a dog is a type of human because both are Eutheria.
my mistake

Can I get one without wasps, please?

i have never seen anyone use screens in sweden, it's like how AC is kind of a luxury thing in northern europe, we just sit around all summer whinging about the heat

A bee is a type of wasp, is it not? I think techniclly ants are wasps too.
this is true if you sensibly agree that "wasp" is a generic term and not hornets specifically, bees and ants are "wasps" but they are not hornets.

Thanks for the perspective.

The waps here hang paper nests all over the place. Like outside your kids room. Maybe even inside. We mostly encounter them in the context of their breeding activities.

Yes, I value scientific research over some subjective random comment on Lemmy. Weird, I know.
Cool. Have you laughed today?

It is not a "polak joke" in any way, but you do you.
Have a laugh buddy. Thats what happens in shitpost.

Yes, a lot. And you?
Every day, my friend. Sometime at people. Sometimes with them.
