Southern yellowjacket
The southern yellowjacket is a social wasp with black and yellow stripes and an orange queen. It lives in eastern North America and further south into Central America. Its nests are often in yards, parks and by roads, so people meet it often, and its stings are painful.1

Venin na yango esalaka nini?
Its stings are venomous, and the venom causes pain. Workers can sting several times in one attack.1

Likama mpo na bato: Epesaka pasiEkoki kopesa pasi mingi, kasi pene na ntango nyonso ezalaka likambo monene te.The species is considered a pest because its nests are close to people and can be large. Close contact with people commonly leads to multiple, painful stings. Disturbing a nest can result in several stings.1
Esalaka nini ntango ebangi?
Workers release alarm pheromones that signal the rest of the colony to attack whatever threatens the nest. Their stings are typically used in defence of the colony.1

Makambo ya solo
Most southern yellowjackets are social parasites: they build their nests around the nests of another species.1
About 85% of colonies start when a queen takes over a small nest of the eastern yellowjacket, V. maculifrons, and only about 15% are founded independently.1
Some nests are very large. One of the biggest reported was in a pine tree and the dirt beneath it, and it had over 50 combs in the trunk alone.1
In Florida and other southern coastal areas, some nests survive the winter and last for several years.1
Workers and queens use pheromones to communicate, with alarm signals for attacks and a different pheromone that attracts males to the queen.1
