That would qualify your husband as a *very* brave man - I'd hesitate to
go into a room with multiple irritated yellow jackets :-). I hope
they're gone for good.
I was chased for about 100' by one once before I managed to swat it -
only thing that saved me was that it was determined to sting between the
eyes and nowhere else. I later found out that behavior is common to
that particular variety.
I'm in Spokane WA and we have lots of yellow jackets. In fact, the
company that makes yellow jacket traps is based here. We put out a
couple every spring and they catch quite a few. The idea is to get them
before they start a new generation.
We almost lost a dog once when she snapped at one and got stung on the
tongue.
