Skunks are the most likely animal to dig up and eat a yellow jacket's nest, even if it's 3 feet off of the ground on the underside of a deck. Raccoons have also been known to eat the larvae out of yellow jackets' nests.
Hornets that are the same color as the ground. Was it hard to figure out?
Hornets don't normally nest in the ground. Yellow Jackets nest in the ground. You can kill them by pouring gasoline in the hole and running.
Sounds like yellowjackets.
There are many sites available online where you can see the pictures of the ground hornets nests. Type images to search.
Ground hornets do not have many predators. Bears and other large carnivores are the most likely since they may not be deterred by a few stings.
That depends entirely on the ground it comes out of. It will differ everywhere.That depends entirely on the ground it comes out of. It will differ everywhere.
It is likely that the cat does not like the feel of something being put around their belly, so it flattens itself on the ground to stop you reaching its underside. The underside is a vulnerable place for an animal, which is why cats often react to this by scratching or pressing itself close to the ground in defence. It may be best to try and avoid putting anything around its belly.
The centipede has a ventral (underside) point of view because its legs are located on its underside, allowing it to navigate the ground and surfaces efficiently while searching for prey.
The might have be hornets who often build their nests in the ground. They also like moist soil which may account for their nest being close to your pond.
It's the part of the snake closest to the ground. The elongated scales on the underside of the snake.
Ants, bees, hornets, scorpions and wasps are bugs that burrow and sting in tomato gardens. The four insects and sole arachnid mentioned above burrow into below-ground and surface-level nests in or near fruit and vegetable gardens where animal prey and plant edibles proliferate. Fire ants (Solenopsis spp) and scorpions (Scorpiones order) contribute to arthropod control even though they receive pest status more quickly than do ground-dwelling nectaring, pollinating bees, hornets and wasps.
It's a ground cuckoo. And not entirely "flightless." They prefer the ground, but they can and do fly.
