If the nest is open (bare hexagonal cells) then it's paper wasps. If it has an envelope (is covered with a round paper shell with an entrance hole at the bottom) it's yellow jackets. My policy is destroy all yellow jacket nests in human range, destroy any paper wasp nests that are likely to be accidentally encountered, leave paper wasp nests alone if they are out of reach.
