Best Answer

"Zombie wasps" was the name given to European Paper Wasps that get infected by the parasite Xenos vesparum, a fly larva that burrows into the wasp's body. The infected wasps lose their social skills of working for the hive, and grow more slowly as the parasite develops inside them. However, they do no harm to the environment. The fly is only found in Europe where there are plenty of Paper Wasps.
