Wasps are known to be aggressive. There are subtypes that are less or more, but I get stung about once every three or four years and yeah, it seems like they hunt. Perhaps it's some accidental perceived threat that I cause, but I'm not exactly "asking for it". They are notably more prevelant recently.
Bro I've been stung exactly twice (both at the same time, stepped on a yellow jacket nest) my whole life, am I just lucky?
I've only been stung stepping on a nest of ground bees.
Most wasps and daubers around me are pretty chill. But we got a nest of bald faced hornets a few years ago, and damn they were aggressive.
I left the nest alone, and none of us got stung, but def got chased inside a couple of times. They attacked the window for 20 minutes afterward, lol.
2/10 would still leave them alone again.
