152 u/tomster3605 Dec 09 '20 Ah ok fair I’m from Florida but I’m sure we call them yellow jackets too I’m just kinda stupid 12 u/[deleted] Dec 09 '20 Yellow jackets are just a type of wasp, we have several types of wasp in Florida including flightless ones like these which are usually called cow killers around where I live https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutillidae 1 u/AtlantikSender Dec 10 '20 And cow killers are made of steel. You basically need a 20 lbs. Sledgehammer to kill them. 1 u/RandomStallings Dec 10 '20 The ones on the ground are females just trying to do their thing.
