Unleashing The Meat Bees: Exploring Wasp Types And Behaviors

Today we investigate a nest of "ground bees" or Yellow Jacket wasps. This type of wasp is also called a "meat wasp" because they transition to a diet of all meat in late summer and early fall. One thing I do to test this assertion in the video is I put out a plate of honey and a chicken leg to see which one they prefer.

During the filming of the Yellow Jacket swarm, I got stung on my hand. It swelled up a lot that night and took several days to go back to normal. I'm probably becoming allergic to them.

I also go down to my barn and show you another kind of wasp that is very common in sheds, and barns and will even nest under eves of houses. Although they are not as fierce to defend if you go near them, they will sting again and again if you disturb their nest.

In the end, I tried an experiment and injected expanding foam into the ground wasp nest to see if that might render them inert.

About Aquachigger:
I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure,
metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my Youtube "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
