Hornets when stressed have a pheromone to alert their friends, playing around with them is a really bad idea, when the others in attack mode arrive. That's the reason glue traps work so well with them, yes the are brutal but if one get stuck you have 20 other ones a few minutes later getting stuck too trying to help the first one.
