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

Domov

Nests are usually in unnatural or disturbed places such as yards, parks, picnic tables and roadsides, and in wall voids. Some colonies are in pine forests or hardwood forests. Most nests are underground, though some are above ground or in walls. The species is common in urban areas.1

Kaj je?

It is predatory and mainly eats live insects, especially arthropods such as spiders and caterpillars. It also feeds on the flesh of dead prey. Adult workers bring food back to the larvae in the nest.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

Black body with yellow striping over the whole body1
Clear wings and a hairless body1
About 1.3 cm long1
The queen is larger than the males and workers and is more orange in colour1
Has two stripes on its scuta1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: Its two stripes on the scuta are shared with V. sulphurea. The queen looks different from the workers and males, so check the colour and size of the wasp you see.1

Moč strupa

Piki

Strup pride ven skozi želo.

Kaj naredi njen strup, ko ugrizne ali piči?

Its stings are venomous, and the venom causes pain. Workers can sting several times in one attack.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

Nevarnost za ljudi: BolečeLahko zelo boli, a skoraj nikoli ni resno.

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

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

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

Če piči

Čebelje želo postrgaj ven in mesto ohladi.
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

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
