Dark paper wasp
ỊgbaThe dark paper wasp is a social wasp that lives across eastern North America, from southern Canada to Texas and Florida. It often builds its papery nest near people, especially where wood is easy to find. Only the females can sting, and they live in colonies with a clear pecking order.1

Eziokwu
Non-resident wasps are often chased out of the nest within the first five minutes of entering it.1
Dominance in the colony depends on fertility, and wasps with larger or more developed ovaries usually rank higher.1
Another wasp species, Polistes dominula, has been displacing this species in many areas where it once dominated.1
A colony can contain well over 200 wasps.1
