Wasps all die in the winter except for the queens who hibernate (usually underground) and restart the colony in the spring.
Does the queen wasp use the same place to hibernate each winter?
No because queen wasps only live for 1 year, as opposed to queen bees. Queen wasps just live over the winter (in hibernation), but die before the next winter. They make new queens before the next winter which will hibernate.
Is it safe to dig in the winter in the ground where you know there were hornets wasps if you hit their nest will they wake and attack?
There should be no danger of that. Only newly-mated queen hornets and wasps hibernate through the winter -- and they don't hibernate in the old nest. If there has been cold weather, especially if cold enough for a frost, the rest of the colony should have died.
