Aerial yellowjacket
The aerial yellowjacket is a yellow and black wasp that lives across Canada and the United States. It builds grey paper nests, often high in trees, and it can deliver a sting. Its nests can be found on buildings in towns and cities.1

Kako jo prepoznaš
- Yellow in colour, with bands on the abdomen (the rear part of the body)1
- No black markings on the ocular sinus (the area of the face around the eye)1
- Queens have large black spots on the abdomen, with smaller spots towards the front1
- Males have larger antennae and an abdomen that ends in a flat, fuzzy tip instead of a pointed sting1
- Nests are made of dull grey paper, with 1 to 6 combs1
Pogosto zamenjujejo z: It is often confused with other yellow wasps in its genus, such as Dolichovespula adulterina. The aerial yellowjacket can be told apart by the lack of black markings in the ocular sinus.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?
Nevarnost za ljudi: BolečeLahko zelo boli, a skoraj nikoli ni resno.Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?
When a nest is threatened, workers can spray venom out of their sting, which releases an alarm pheromone that draws other wasps into attack.1
Če piči

- Če ima poškodovanec težave z dihanjem, otekel obraz ali grlo ali se mu vrti, kot da bo omedlel, gre za nujno stanje zaradi alergije: pokliči številko za klic v sili in uporabi njegov adrenalinski avtoinjektor, če ga ima.

Ostani varen
- Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
- Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
- Če te piči: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.
Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti

Dejstva
Unlike many of its relatives, this wasp is known to spray venom out of its sting, a behaviour seen in workers from large colonies.1
Female bee moths (Aphomia sociella) sometimes lay their eggs in these nests, and their larvae can destroy large parts of the nest as they feed.1
Because nests are built high in trees, birds and other wasps are among the few predators that reach them. Skunks, opossums, raccoons and bears sometimes raid low or badly placed nests for the nutrient-rich larvae.1
Small colonies can behave unpredictably and erratically when defending their nest.1
Colonies usually last about a year before they die out as winter arrives.1

- A queen starts a new colony each spring by building a small paper nest and laying eggs. The larvae grow into workers, and the colony peaks in summer.1
