Wasps in my bee yard

Honeybee Rescue and removal
Paper wasp completely refinishing the exterior of this hive body.

This wasp is building her nest under a plastic chair. I’ve liked these wasps since I was a little kid. They are great for garden pests and aren’t very aggressive, so I’ll let her stay. I just have to remember not to sit on the chair.

The above picture, however, is another story. She can’t stay. And definitely not in my bait hive. I’m going to attempt to relocate this thing in the woods a good distance away.

I keep honey bees in Reading, Bernville, and Fleetwood, PA without treatments. I love to garden and observe Wasps, Bumble bees, and ants. I also raise mealworms for my Eastern Spotted turtle and myself.
