Nests are mostly made out of a mixture of chewed wood and wasp saliva. Queen wasps will often start to build their nests in roof voids, wall cavities or in outbuildings.

Wasps make their nests out of pulped wood and bark, which they gnaw, chew up and turn into a pulp by mixing it with their saliva. Athough the amount of material that can be provided by the efforts of one wasp is obviously very small, the whole community work together to build the nest and do so ceaselessly over a period of weeks. The end result is the papery, pale-yellow coloured nest that they live in!
