It's possible that their nests are in the ground. We had a nest in our iris bed last year & there were tons of them.

Subject: [Market-farming] Yellow jackets
The last two years, we've been chased out or our raspberry bushes by
hordes (and I mean hordes!) of yellow jackets. Ordinarily, we can pick
for 6+ weeks, but this year we were only able to pick for about 2 weeks
before the bushes became too treacherous.
My husband has hunted high and low for nests with no success. We have
many traps set, both the pheremone-type and large buckets of soapy water
baited with apples. The traps work, in that they've successfully
caught hundreds of yellow jackets, but still they come . . .
Does any one know a strategy for keeping yellow jackets out of the berry
bushes?
