      I’m from germany, and it indeed is in summer, even in large cities. Wasps come in with the customers and wont leave.

          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.

            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.
