Not sure how aggressive the wasps are in the US, but for Europe this isn’t really true. We have a nest of European wasps (similar to yellowjackets) in our garden and they really couldn’t care less about us humans. I can stand in their flight path and they just fly around me. But I’m also not as easily panicked as other people so that certainly helps…
Canada.
Mud wasps are big but chill.
The regular wasps are super aggressive. If they smell anything on you even just remnants of a meal that interests them, good luck.
Hornets arent common but unless you deliberately mess with their nests they’ll leave you alone.
The parasitic wasps are mean looking but like the spiders they are mostly hunting, we’re just in the way and something to avoid.
Well, I was indeed talking about the “regular wasps”. We’ve had dinner in garden etc, but they usually left us alone although their nest is in about 5 m distance. I guess the reason is that there are other food sources for them around due to a diverse vegetation.
