With already a sharp incline in the wasp calls, this week we’re looking at some interesting facts about wasps and why wasps aren’t all bad.
Some interesting wasp facts
Did you know:
There are over 7,000 species of wasp in the UK?
A spider wasp will paralyse their prey and their larvae then eat their spider victim alive! They are the insect version of Hannibal Lecter!
The UK weather helps to manage our wasps - the biggest wasp nests are generally found in Australia where the winter climate is milder – there can be up to two million workers in those nests – imagine! In the UK we don’t generally see our wasp nests getting that big as the winter tends to stop them growing to their full potential.
Honey bees die when they sting but if a wasp loses its sting, it will just make more venom – this makes them a formidable insect warrior!
A social wasp that is upset will emit a pheromone which is like a call for help from other wasps. A entire upset wasp colony means big trouble!
Even though a wasp nest can typically hold thousands of wasps, there is only ever one Queen – Girl Power!
Wasp benefits
