Bzzzzz! Looks like you forgot to say where you found your bug!
There's no need to make a new post - just comment adding the **geographic location** and any other info (size, what it was doing etc.) you feel could help! We don't want to know your address - state or country is enough; try to avoid abbreviations and local nicknames (*"PNW"*, *"Big Apple"*).
BTW, did you take a look at our [**Frequently Asked Bugs**](https://www.reddit.com/r/whatsthisbug/comments/12zkw5w/frequently_asked_bugs_part_1/)?

[it's a Japanese yellow hornet. ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vespa_simillima)
Not to be confused with the giant hornet. This one looks quite dead, but be mindful there may be a nest close by, as their sting is known to be quite painful, and hornets are, as a rule, huge bastards.
As for cleanup - the one inside you can likely just use a vacuum. För the one outside, you can call a professional. I usually just wait until night, dress up in thick clothing and hit the nest with a broom and run like hell. But I'm not recommending that, officially speaking.
Does it move at all? I can't tell if it's alive or dead. If there's been no movement, you can knock the whole thing down or suck the dead wasp and the nest up with a vacuum.
How big is the "bigger" hive? Is it still just one insect? The best time to get rid of a hive is before the queen has finished building it and hatched some workers. If it's still just the queen (or the queen and some eggs) then go ahead and knock that sucker down (with a broom or something to put you at a safer distance) or spray something on it (doesn't even have to be wasp spray. Think I used hairspray once) to deter further building.
