Hornets and wasps are nasty things. Wasps hunt down every last spider to encase in their nest for their kids to feed on when they hatch. Those hornets use bees. We once had the giant Cicada Killer Wasps, which are so big they can actually carry a cicada in flight back to their nest. The stinger on those bad boys looks like a toothpick. Luckily, the cicada killers don't bother people and we never got stung by one but those suckers are big! 2"
