Best Answer

A wasp is a flying insect. There are more than 100,000 species of wasps and a lot of them have venomous stings. Unlike a bee, they do not die after they use their sting. Baby wasps or larvae eat other insects. Adult wasps hunt for food by stinging it and bringing it back to the nest for their baby wasps or larvae to consume. These adults also feed on nectar, pollen, fallen fruit, and other dead insects. Aggressive wasps will invade honey bee hives and steal honey or even drink the blood of honey bees. They also eat any sweet substance such as jam, cake, and other human food.

I hope this answered your question!!! :)

What do wasps eat?

Community Answer 1Adult paper wasps either drink nectar or catch caterpillars and drink the caterpillar's blood, or hemolymph. Then the adult wasp flies back to the nest and regurgitates (throws up) the nectar or blood into the mouths of young (larval) wasps or other adult wasps. After the young wasps are full, they produce a saliva (or spit) which is fifty times more nutritious than nectar. The adult wasps drink this saliva from the mouths of the young wasps.____________________________________________________________Community Answer 2Wasps eat other living bugs like, ants, flies and caterpillars, if their able to catch with fast reflexes they will eat butterflies. They will also make honey with pollen and they will eat the honey afterwards.
