What's the difference between a wasp, a yellow jacket, and a hornet? Wasps are usually shiny or appear smooth, while bees are usually fuzzy. Yellow jackets are a ground-nesting wasp that is common. They are about the size of or a little larger than a honeybee and have bright yellow and black bands around their bodies. Hornets are simply large wasps. Most hornets are at least double the size of a yellow jacket and their aggressiveness is at least double as well! Hornets quickly respond to threats by counter-attacking entities that are potentially harmful to their nest or the larvae and pupae within.
