These bees get their reputation from their tendency to attack in large numbers and for considerable distances when they feel threatened.

These hornets can form colonies that have up to 400 members.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wasps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wasps are more of a problem in late summer thanks to their taste for sweet liquids, which can cause them to become aggressive around humans.
