Today I saw a curious phenomenon, there are a lot of wasps on the flowers, and the mouth of the wasp is also constantly chewing, the action is fast, is the wasp also like the bee to collect nectar?
At first, I thought that the wasp wasp was the same as the bees to collect nectar, and when I checked the Internet, I learned that the wasps would not pick nectar, the main food was a variety of small insects, and it would also go to the flowers to eat some nectar, but it would not be like a bee to collect the nectar back to the nest to make nectar.
According to scientists, for every kilogram of honey brewed by bees, they collect about 1 million flowers, fly almost 450,000 kilometers, a full length of 11 equatorials, and the lifespan of worker bees is generally only a few months, most of which die from high-intensity labor.
The wasp is a widely distributed, varied, fast-flying, and highly toxic insect. Belonging to the wasp family hymenoptera, the female bee has a long and powerful long claw needle, in the face of attack or unfriendly interference, will attack in groups, can cause allergic reactions and toxic reactions, severe cases can cause death. Wasps usually build their nests from soft pulp-like wood pulp and feed on animal or plant foods.
Wasps are groups of insects with social behavior. The species of the family Crabidae usually have no nests and live freely. At the time of spawning, the female bee builds a mud chamber or selects a suitable bamboo tube to lay eggs in it, while storing the larvae or spiders of other insects that have been anesthetized by the chele after being caught. One egg in one room, sealed separately, and the larvae hatched by the eggs feed on the stored prey. After the pupae and feathers turn into bees, they bite through the nest mouth and come out.
