Today I noticed that there is a Yellow Jacket nest in my yard. I have a huge deck, and in the middle of it there's a hole cut where a decorative ornamental fir is growing, 6-7' tall. They're in/under the fir, under ground.
Throughout the day I watched the drones flying in and out, like Borg cubes returning to the unicomplex.
As much as I hated to (?) I waited until it got dark and flooded the hole with Raid, and then plugged the hole with a rock. There were so many I could hear them buzzing from a distance underground.
It was scary and fascinating.
