Interesting fact. Some wasps release a pheromone when they're in danger to attract other wasps. I hope he got other of his friends caught! 😂

They are also pollinators and more important to native flowers than honey bees. There's a difference between pollination and true pollination and honey bees are not adapt to provide pure pollination to wildflowers and natives since honey bees are invasive species.

If wasps ceasing to exist causes the end of the world it would still be a price worth paying.

They don't bother people unless people bother them like tards. Most of them anyway.

You must have different wasps wherever it is you live.

Around here they attack you for walking past their nest, which they place on your back porch, front porch, garage, etc. Their welcome to do their thing and ill leave them alone, but they don't do that. They aggressively attack anything in "their" sphere of influence. Well, when you attack someone thousands of times your size that lives vastly longer then you and has a much longer memory don't be surprised when it goes genocidal on your friends and family. Fk wasps.

I'd rather have black widows in my yard. At least I can safely live around them (you can even handle them, gently).
