We have what's called ground hornets. Disturb the nest and you will be stung to death. A few years ago I was using a 400 IHC tractor with an auger and hit a nest. Thousands of hornets swarmed the tractor and tried stinging it. The metal disturbed the nest so they were after the metal but after I backed away I did have to change my shorts.
