What good does the wasp do?

Answer 1

Wasps are actually beneficial insects for humans and the environment. They are one of the major natural scavengers, and they eat insects such as flies and caterpillars that are often considered pests to humans. They should be left alone if they are in a location where they are not bothering people. Some wasps pollinate plants and crops, but most do not.

Answer 2

Wasps should be regarded as beneficial insects. They eat many types of insect pests. Although they can sting, they will not do so unless provoked. Queen wasps can lay as many as 2,000 eggs a day and the wasp larvae are fed on caterpillars, Spiders and aphids which the worker wasps collect for them. Worker wasps eat nectar a sugary secretion from the larvae and towards the end of the season there are fewer, if any, larvae and the wasps have to find an alternative food. This is where they turn to over-ripe fruit.

The benefits that wasps provide to gardeners and farmers by killing pests far outweighs any nuisance they might cause.
