I think it came in while we where just getting home. It hid like a ninja for about two hours behind **** cause I saw it 3-4 times before we killed it.

A good one, it's dead! I got stung about a year ago by a wasp and went ninja on it's ***. I donned a black dickies jacket and lurked in the shadows with a can of raid. I exacted my revenge with said can and then whipped out the BBQ lighter and napalmed him to hell! Then I drank a beer over it's smoldering corpse.

Bees don't bite.

Looks to me to be an Animalia-Arthropoda-Insecta-Hymenoptera of the Vespidae family.



More specifically your common Paper Wasp.

I think its cicata killer. But I know what you're talking about, and I don't think that's it. I killed one of those things with brake parts cleaner. I saved it in a ziploc and looked it up online. It was fkn massive man, like a .50 cal shell. The stinger was probably 1/2" long.

OP,

I think that's a mahogany wasp. The third picture looks almost just like it.

Me and my 9 year old were tossing the football around yesterday and saw a cicada killer take out a cicada in mid-air......those things are vicious! They flew into the side of my car and made a thud, then the cicada killer flew off with the cicadas body constantly popping it with its stinger! Mean sum bitches!
