You'll have a job mowing them if they are near the roof.

Yes, they are likely to attack. And sometimes, when they're on the ground, they sting you. When I was about 10, I was wearing sandals, and I accidently stepped on some hornets in somebody's back yard. OOOOOhhhh , that HURT ! And , years later, when I was in my husband's nephew's pool, a hornet floating around in there stung me ! And last, but not least, when I was living at home, and I was in an attic bedroom, I got stung in the middle of the night , in the winter ! .......by a hornet ! That was a rude awakening !

Yes! If you're allergic to the venom, even one sting can kill you. En masse, even if one sting doesn't really affect you, lots of them stinging can cause an allergic reaction, and your throat can swell up to the point where you can't breathe. Same with bees, especially "Killer Bees". Here's a video of Japanese hornets: http://youtu.be/R5QxUR-mZVM
