What would happen if we didn't have wasps?
"As a group, wasps provide extraordinarily important ecological services, including pollination, predation, and parasitism. Put simply, without wasps we would be overrun with insect pests, and we would have no Fig Newtons.I suspect, however, that you weren't thinking about things like fig wasps when you started wondering why we need wasps. You were probably aggravated by the yellowjackets hanging around your garbage cans, or terrified by the huge hornets' nest you just discovered in the shrub near your pool.We take notice of the social wasps because they build visible nests, often close to our own homes, and because they will defend these nests aggressively.Hornets and paper wasps prey on other insects, and help keep pest insect populations under control. It takes a lot of bugs to feed a hungry brood. Both hornets and paper wasps provide vital pest control services.The University of Florence researchers found that wasps and hornets feed on late season grapes, which are rich in wild yeast. The yeast survives the winter in the stomachs of hibernating queen wasps, and is passed on to their offspring when the mother wasps regurgitate food for their young. The new generation of wasps carries the yeast back to the next season's grapes. So raise your glass to the wasps and hornets!Yellowjacket don't get quite as much credit for being beneficial, although they should. Yellowjackets mostly scavenge dead insects to feed their offspring.We do need these services, too, of course. What would the world be like if all the dead bugs just piled up? Unfortunately, their scavenging habits and their love of sugar puts them in close proximity to people, which almost never ends well for the yellowjacket or the person."Source: Nuisance Wasps and Bees, Colorado State University Extension, accessed September 11, 2012
Are mud daubers carnivores?
In a word: "no." Several species of wasps are referred to as mud daubers. Most belong to the family Sphecidae. These wasps are solitary wasps that hunt spiders and other insects as prey. Their venom has evolved to act as a paralyzing agent for their prey. This is unlike social wasps, that live in a colonial nest. These wasps have evolved a painful venom, usually high in histimines, to deter intruders from disrupting their nest.
What bug burrows and stings in tomato gardens?
Ants, bees, hornets, scorpions and wasps are bugs that burrow and sting in tomato gardens. The four insects and sole arachnid mentioned above burrow into below-ground and surface-level nests in or near fruit and vegetable gardens where animal prey and plant edibles proliferate. Fire ants (Solenopsis spp) and scorpions (Scorpiones order) contribute to arthropod control even though they receive pest status more quickly than do ground-dwelling nectaring, pollinating bees, hornets and wasps.
What organisms do wasps eat?
Wasps eat many different organisms, including spiders, caterpillars, flies, ants, bees, and various other insects. Wasps have been speculated to prey on small birds as well.
What does a wasp use it wings for?
Wasps use their wings to fly so that they can hunt their prey.
How can you get rid of ichneumon wasp in they're close to a pool?
Ichneumon wasps are highly specific parasitoid wasps. They will often have one specific target prey. Observe them and try to find out what they are after. Perhaps beetle grubs in your trees? If you get rid of their prey, you get rid of them as well.
What is a wasps diet?
Yes. Most wasps are omnivore. Of the 75,000 species know many prey on other insects and consume plant tissue.
What kills or eats a tarantula?

Some flies have the characteristic yellow and black pattern normally seen on beed?
Some flies have the coloration and similar shape of bees and wasps. The reason for this is to trick predators into thinking that they are bees or wasps that are not part of their normal prey.
Is a beetle a predator?
There are literally millions of insect species. Some are herbivores, like caterpillars and aphids, and some are carnivores, like wasps and dragonflies. Some are prey to others. And even carnivorous insects may be prey to birds, so they can be predator and prey at the same time too.
What are four predators that prey on bees?
Humans are there biggest predator. The Honey Badgers and Honey birds work in unison to attack them in Africa. Bears, Winnie the Pooh, are notorious. Wasps and hornets love their larva as food. They'll settle for a little honey too. Spiders use several methods to get them. Skunks are efficient killers. Toads can eat thousands with being attract. Other honey bees will attack, kill and rob another hive.
