I learned to live with yellowjackets at my previous house where I had a large vegetable garden. They were always around, and seemed to really appreciate the water that was available to them. I left them to their own devices and never once got stung. One moment that won me over was when they swarmed in and devoured a caterpillar nest on a tree - it didn't take long to eat them up!

What I won't tolerate is them building nests in/on the house. Twice we've seen them attempting to make use of odd holes in the siding. Duct tape over the hole puts an end to that.
