    Those don't look like our English yellow wasps to me though.  Although I realise there are other wasp species in this country they don't cause any problems.

    If they’re not bothering you then don’t bother them .As has been said ,the only time I would call an exterminator would be if someone was allergic to stings or if they came into your living space and became a nuisance..Other than that ,just live alongside of them till they go in Autumn .

    It's a red wasp that stung me in the neck and the face. First time it stung me i forgave him.  Second time i killed him.  I guess thats when he lost two legs. Forgive me for killing him
