I cleaned and refreshed my feeders last night after the hummers had gone to bed. This morning I got up to HUNDREDS of yellow jackets swarming my patio. Not only can the poor hummers not eat, but I cannot sit out there. What on earth do I do????

I've put 2 bowls of sugar water out there and some bread with jelly on it. But, it seems that I am just feeding yellow jackets now, not hummers.

The hummers and I are extremely distressed! Can you give me any advice. My poor hummers look at me like, "Hey, where did the food go?" and I can only look on helplessly. This is a first for me.
