[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1270127, member: 4362"] I was going on what GP said that they are close to one another. Our yellow jackets also build paper nests but they are normally in the ground. Our yellow jackets are vicious and ornery and will swarm you whereas our guinea wasps are far more forgiving. If you mess with a guinea wasp nest here you might get stung a few times but a yellow jacket nest is much worse and they don't stop stinging even if you run away they keep sending others to sting you. They are my biggest fear in the woods. I'd rather come upon a hundred rattlesnakes than one yellow jacket nest. What's bad is they sometimes form mega nests when conditions are right. If you happen to be unlucky enough to get in one of these odds are they will sting you to death. Here is a mega nest I found a few years ago. The nest is in the ground but with a high water table they built their nest 16 foot up this tree. No telling how many of the demons this nest held.
