Six percent of people think they can beat a grizzly bear

Yellowjackets have their nest underground. I was pounded once when mowing my grandma's yard, it wasn't fun.

Red wasps have a powerful sting. I found out the hard way. I was getting rid of junk around my home. One of the items
was an old bbq grill we no longer used. Red wasps used it to make a nest. Their sting hit me hard. Their sting is greater
than a yellow jacket. Trust me. Their visible nest they are cool. Just don't attack it .

I've been stung so many times that I can tell what I was stung by without even looking, so as a person seemingly used over the years by those pesky dive bombers as target practice, I can say with confidence that the ones that hurt the worst are actually Paper Wasps. The name sounds innocent enough, but nay, nay! Their stings burn like hell, and the pain lingers for hours.

The least painful are black wasps, which rarely sting, unless your name is Andrus Whitewing, If it is, then you aren't safe from any wasp.
