    Wasps aren’t evil. They are important pollinators and they are literally just hanging out. I am sick and tired of the wasp hate.

      Thank you for pointing this out. I was planning to do the same. Wasps are important for the ecosystem in many ways.

        They are quite aggressive when there are no more flowers/nectar in the end of summer. They don’t store “food” like bees do, they just have nothing so they want your bologna

          That’s not really the case. The adult wasps are vegetarian, they may drink your soda, but your bologna does nothing for them. They want your bologna for their carnivorous larvae - it’s for the children.
