What are insects that Look like a hornet but are LARGE and fly double?

Answer by  Graham (23)

Some possibilities: cicada killers are very large and are closely related to hornets. Some beetles can look like hornets when flying. Moths are also often found near porch lights.

What you may be seeing is a yellow jacket. Yellow jackets can be quite large and have a painful sting. It is not advised that you go near a nest if there is one - you dont want to get stung or worse, have an allergic reaction.
