Here it’s usually that they seek out the breath because of the monoxide and people start panicking because the ly fly into their face and seemingly wont go away. So they Start swinging their arms at the wasp and it feels in danger and attacks.
Easiest solution is to hold breath and walk away if they bother you.
The nest is my primary target. Cover up, knock it down, destroy it, walk away for a bit, they all leave. Fuk wasps.
Hmm. When you consulted “every source I could find about wasps in the US” apparently you chose to disregard the direct feedback of people on the front line. Hmm.
it would be illegal to go after the nest in Germany. At least generally. There are of course exceptions, but you’d need to get the authorities involved and a specialist remove them.
you’d often need to dig, because the most annoying wasps (common wasp and German yellowjacket) often have their nests underground
Africanised bees will be like that, but we don’t really have them in europe as far as I know.
Wasps usually only get really stingy if you disturb their nest or come way too close to it.
You’ll find wasps in almost any bakery in summer. Also in and around garbage cans.
You grab the pastry and they will usually fly away and settle onto the next one a bit later.
There seems to be a vast gulf here. American wasps will fukin attack you for fun. So you kill them first.
Do they really attack on sight?

If you are too close to the nest, they will send out scouts, and then you can expect an attack. Kill them first.
That’s true and it’s kind of bad to have them where you’re walking daily. That’s when I would do something as well.
I already said that in my first comment.
Theyre an important part of the ecosystem though. Pest killer number one. If there’s constantly wasps settling near you, there’s a reason.
Wait, this is a common occourrence? It’s normal to see wasps on pastries?
I’m from germany, and it indeed is in summer, even in large cities. Wasps come in with the customers and wont leave.
Do German wasps attack you unprovoked like ours do?
Apparently that’s a myth according to every source I could find about wasps in the US.
They seek out your breath, so people start panicking swinging wildly and running away, which in return might be considered a threat for the wasp.
Hold your breath and walk away.
Killed wasps on the other hand attract other wasps out for revenge, if the nest is somewhere nearby.

Yes, I value scientific research over some subjective random comment on Lemmy. Weird, I know.
Yes, if you leave them outside at summer. No wasps in bakeries or coffeeshops in Finland.
God I love the Finns. Finnish coffee sounds amazing too.
