Some can lay eggs in their host which eats them alive from the inside out. An example is the Pepsis wasp which lays it's eggs in tarantulas. Another is the Ichneumon wasp which lays it's eggs on caterpillars. And there's a lot more out there.

Why do use vinegar to treat wasp stings?

It is a fallacy that you can neutralise wasp venom with vinegar. It came from people believing wasp venom was alkaline: in fact it isn't, it is chemically pretty well neutral. Vinegar is known to have some soothing action for certain skin conditions, but I think with wasp stings a lot of it is a placebo effect.
