Aggressive yellow jackets are all the buzz around Wisconsin right now.
Reports from outdoor eateries everywhere from Green Bay to Milwaukee say this year seems worse than ever for bees swarming tables.
And it's not just restaurants with outdoor seating that are seeing the activity.
This is the time of year when just filling up your car a bit too close to the garbage can at a gas station.
could result in a sting worse than the price at the pump.
Experts say a combination of factors are making this year especially bad for the swarming pests.
Dr. Michael Draney is a professor of biology at UW-Green Bay.
Draney says, unlike bees that are pollinators, yellow jackets are predatory, typically feeding on bugs.
But as summer turns to fall and bugs die off,
Wasps need to find another food source, and they can get aggressive.
Plus, this time of year, Draeney says yellow jackets need quick, efficient energy to survive.
That means sugar.
Making your soda, birthday cake, or beer, is especially enticing.
Experts say recent milder winters have led to more wasps surviving, meaning more nests.
One thing they suggest you could do is put a high source of sugar out to lure them away from your table to that other food source, but it's something they say we're going to have to deal with for a while, at least until the first hard freeze.
A new federal voter fraud investigation push is expected to include Wisconsin, according to CNN.
It comes as the November midterm election gets closer.

The agency has not released details on any Wisconsin cases.
Six, Wisconsin law enforcement agencies are ending their use of flock safety license plate reader cameras.
The Racine County Sheriff's Office and five agencies in Fond du Lac County recently announced they were discontinuing the systems.

Several police officials say they did not know the cameras were collecting additional information.
The Green Bay Landmarks Commission is taking action against a historic downtown building that's more than 100 years old.

City officials say little progress has been made despite repeated warnings.

The building is the second property in Green Bay to receive a demolition by neglect designation.
42 locations in Wisconsin are receiving grants to build electric vehicle charging stations.

A Madison Elementary School is going by a new name.
The city board of education recently voted to change the name of Conrad LVM Elementary to Ada Deere Elementary, honoring a former Menominee tribal leader.
She passed away three years ago at the age of 88, but not before helping restore federal recognition of her tribe.
LVM, a former president of UW Madison, had ties to racial discrimination decades ago, leading to the change.
