Woohoo the yellow jackets are gone!

I sure did find that nasty nest of yellow jackets in the ground. Yup...that's right they had a nest in the ground. I found them Sat. morning. I noticed lots of yellow jackets hovering in the same place on the ground by an old tree stump. I was looking for an aerial nest & couldn't find anything. They got it good on Sat. night tho. Mike & I sprayed two cans (I know a little over board) of the spray to kill them & the eggs... There were a few flying around the next day. It's still a little nerve racking to go outside after what Jen, Shaylei, & Jayven went through last Thurs. evening. I've never seen a yellow jackets nest in the ground. I looked up yellow jackets online & found out that there are several different types yellow jackets & they build nest aerial or in the ground. I've never seen that before & hope they don't come back here in the future! They are aggressive & nasty...
