LMX Sirex was created in 1968.
Sirex woodwasp was created in 1793.
Sirex juvencus was created in 1758.
The female Sirex wood wasp can be considered dangerous as it has a venomous sting that it uses to inject toxic spores into pine trees. These spores can lead to the death of the tree. However, the Sirex wood wasp does not pose a direct threat to humans.
The sirex woodwasp, scientifically known as Sirex noctilio, primarily inhabits coniferous forests, particularly those with species like pine and spruce. It is found in various regions around the world, including parts of North America, Europe, and Australia. This woodwasp typically lives in dead or dying trees, where it lays its eggs and the larvae develop by feeding on the wood.

Sirex wood wasps can be dangerous to pine trees. When a female wood wasp lays eggs. It drills one to six holes into the tree, lays an egg on each hole and fills them with mucous. Usually one hole is filled with fungal spores also introduced by the female. Once the eggs hatch, the larvae tunnel into the wood and feed on the fungus. The fungus and mucous kill the tree.
To get rid of the sirex wood wasp, first identify infested trees and assess the damage. You can cut down and properly dispose of heavily infested trees to prevent the spread. Additionally, applying insecticides specifically designed for wood-boring insects may help, but it's crucial to follow local regulations and guidelines. For severe infestations, consider consulting a professional pest control service or an arborist.
It sounds like you might be describing a black widow spider. Black widows are black with orange/red markings on their abdomen and have venomous stingers called pedipalps. They are known for their potent venom and distinctive coloring.
There are many. Some have been around for long enough to be accepted as natural and desirable in the US environment. These include earthworms, honeybees, pheasants. Others like Zebra Mussels are generally unknown to the public as they are not usually visible.
