They don't ever seem to bother him or anyone else that walks by.

Hornets in your neighbourhood are a good thing - they eat wasps and other nuisances, and they do not usually sting you.

wasp?! I heard about mosquitoes but never heard about wasps

[-] UpperBroccoli 5 points 10 hours ago

Aye. Technically, hornets are just a bigger kind of wasps, but they still do hunt their smaller cousins.

The only thing really to know is that it is not advisable to get too close to their nest. If you leave them be, they leave you be, too.

Yeah, wasps are hardy a nuisance unless you're close to their nest. Hornets on the other hand go out of their way to ruin my day.
