I hate those damned things. I had to look them up to find out what they were, and they are what we call yellowjackets here in the states. I get nests of them around my place and they make it a royal pain to do anything during the summer!
I think some might be living in our eaves over our garage, but they die off every winter due to the cold. Guess I could seal it up real well :)
our winters would be summer holidays for your wasps
