"German wasps" are very angry and more likely to sting you for no reason right now.
Professor Adam Hart is from the University of Gloucestershire and a fellow at the Royal Entomological Society, or as he describes himself - a 'bug botherer’. He said: “One idea is that they are unemployed - their colony has come to an end, and they are not really doing anything anymore.”

“I think we’ve got a combination of wasp behavior linked with human behavior. They are flying around in high numbers, and we are grabbing on to every chance to be outside, and you have a perfect storm coming together,” added Professor Hart.
The vespula germanica is a common wasp species mostly found in the British Isles.
