Wasps are often perceived as aggressive and territorial, especially when their nests are threatened. However, their behavior can vary significantly among species; some are solitary and more docile, while others are social and live in colonies. Generally, wasps play essential roles in ecosystems as pollinators and pest controllers. Their perceived "personality" largely stems from their defensive nature when provoked.
There are many types of wasps (over 100,000 species), but they usually fall into one of the two categories - solitary or social. Solitary wasps - mud daubers, pollen wasps, potter wasps. Social wasps - polistine paper wasps.
