Yellowjackets are the most aggressive wasps when it comes to protecting their nests. Yellowjackets, like all wasps, are attracted to a wide range of insects and arthropods. Yellowjackets also like to eat sweets and meats. After one summer, the queens will leave to start a new colony.

Yellowjackets nest in the ground but they will nest in railroad ties and wall voids. Most yellow jackets feed on insects in spring. Foraging workers can be a nuisance when wasp colonies reach their greatest size in the fall. while they hunt for food. A sting is temporary and usually only feels painful for most people.
