Yellow jackets are half-inch long wasps, with black and yellow or white markings. They live in papery gray nests, either suspended above ground in vegetation or buried below ground. Their nests, like the volleyball-sized one pictured at the right, have only one opening but can contain over a thousand workers with a single queen. Workers are attracted to meat and sugary items, which they carry back to the nest to share with others.

The nests are dominated by the egg-laying queens, which start building the nest in the spring. By the end of the summer, the nests are fully developed with hundreds or thousands of workers. By the first frost however, most workers and males have died, leaving only the new queens to find a protected spot to stay over the winter.
