They certainly do not sit still for long.

Also sound louder than their european cousins.
Sounded a bit like a mini chainsaw (note Jonno sometimes exagerates)

Its seems the one I saw had only two or three bands.

That could be it. The blue bands vary from "white-blue" on our local ones.


We also have European wasps, which I would love to get rid of...

I just trapped those for a couple of years and they seem to have
disappeared. Perhaps whomever had the nest nuked their place.
