Really worried about the lack of wasps

Don’t get me wrong - I hate the little buggers, but there is a dramatic reduction of them flying about.

You may have read about the dangerous reduction in :honeybee: bees. I worried about the crops getting pollinated

Yeah. I worry too. I have a garden and I need bees. Luckily I have seen some out there.

I have a lot of wasps that fly around my front porch. nobody has been stung yet, they don’t really pay much attention to people. also have a lot of clover in the yard that the bees like.

I don’t think wasps are pollinators. I’m worried about the bees though, even though I’m deathly allergic. I have seen like two all year.

I’m worried about bees. I like them when they aren’t buzzing around me. My husband’s family used to keep bees.

They didn’t make a single nest in the shed this year. In the past they were all over the inside. I don’t see many bees anymore, which is a pretty big problem.

yes, well its been a bit of a soppy summer but the wild flowers are growing more, its good they are not cutting all the grass now and leaving some to grow wild flowers for bees :slight_smile:

my crop was a stoater this year though, i harvested some turnip and lettuce last week and my onions and carrots are looking great, i’ll post a pic, the community garden gets loads of bees :slight_smile:

Here’s my plot

I’ve ran into enough wasp nests while hiking. I worry about the bees but wasps are a bunch of assholes. I have no problem gassing the ■■■■ out of them.

I just got two wasp nests removed from my back patio. I couldn’t even go out there.

Wasps don’t pollinate anything though, I don’t think it would hurt us if they disappeared. If it makes you feel better we have a large wasp’s nest on the back of the house with probably a hundred of them in there. I’m not complaining about it because I’m moving soon so I don’t care.

Seems like it’s a couple times a year that our front yard tree- it’s very big, hums like machinery when you stand on the porch.
It’s bees doing their thing…now I wonder if I’ve seen them this year…?

I’m not too worried about the lack of food if bees went extinct (this is a joke) but rather think of no more coffee :coffee: :mask::thinking::face_with_raised_eyebrow::face_with_monocle::disappointed:
