Anyone that doesn't sting me is welcome. I love seeing all the salticids. The wasps can get bent

I had a wasp's nest over my back door for 11 years and only got stung once when I grabbed a broom handle with a wasp on it. Even then it was just one wasp, it's not as if the entire swarm came after me.

Depends on the wasps. Mud daubers are chill. Anything more aggressive than paper wasps get the death penalty
