Yellow Jackets are very aggressive. I seem to need to relearn that every 5 years or so. Last encounter was 2 years ago clearing trees around driveway, only 50 foot from back door. Cutting a 4 inch tree with my fairly new Still chainsaw. I saw yellow jackets pouring out of the ground 4 inches from tree I was cutting. I knew what was coming. Started running for house with saw, thats when the first 2 got me. Dropped saw ( still running ) got inside without additional damage. 4 Of them got inside 3 more stings before I swatted them. Still chainsaw idling beside driveway. Waited 20 minutes snuck out and turned off saw. Got some stuff to mix with water in 5 gallon bucket and hit them just after dark that night.
