What are the living habits of wasps? What's the difference between wasps and bees?
Wasps, also known as wasps, wasps, wasps and so on, are widely distributed and have a wide variety of insects, which will attack in groups when attacked. So, what are the living habits of wasps? What's the difference between wasps and bees?
What are the living habits of wasps?
Wasps are insects with social behavior, and the species of the family Cerambycidae usually have no nests. When laying eggs, the female wasps build a mud chamber or choose a suitable bamboo tube to lay eggs. At the same time, the larvae or spiders of other kinds of insects anesthetized by stings are stored, one room and one egg are sealed respectively, and the larvae hatched by the eggs feed on the stored prey. After pupation and Eclosion into bees, they break through the nest mouth and fly out. Other species of wasps live in nests all their lives. There are queen bees, worker bees and drones in the colony. The latter bees are females who mate and fertilize with drones after the autumn of the previous year. They store their sperm in seminal vesicles and use them separately in that year. Drones die soon after mating, and when the weather gets cold, fertilized females leave their nests to look for wind shelters such as cracks in the walls and haystacks to survive the winter. In the following spring, the surviving females go out to move separately. Find a suitable place to build a nest and lay eggs on their own. The fertilized eggs they lay form female bees, and the unfertilized eggs form drones. Due to the increase in the number of professional bees, the honeycomb gradually expands, and worker bees are responsible for building nests and feeding larvae.
Second, the difference between wasps and bees
1. Wasps and bees have different eating habits.
The eating habits of wasps and bees are also very different. Bees are herbivorous insects that feed on pollen and are vegetarian. They play a role in spreading pollen in the process of collecting pollen. Hornets have complex feeding habits. In addition to sucking nectar, adults also have predation. Caterpillars and small green worms on trees are its prey targets, because wasps prey on pests, which, like bees, are beneficial insects.
2. The materials of hornet hive and honeybee hive are different.
The materials of hornet hives and honey beehives are different. The hives of wasps are paper nests, while the hives of bees are wax nests. From the material point of view, the hives of bees are obviously more quality than those of wasps.
3. Wasps are more grumpy than bees
Both wasps and bees have the habit of living in groups. Because there are more bees raised in captivity, a hive can hold tens of thousands of bees, while most wasps are wild. Most of the wasps found are only the size of fists. One or two hundred wasps can live in a hive. Although they have gregarious habits, they are also exclusive. For members who break in by mistake, they will attack in groups and kill them. Wasps have a strong habit of protecting their young and nests, and they are more grumpy and aggressive.
4. Bees will die after stinging people, but wasps will not
The sting of the wasp is slender and can be taken out smoothly after stinging a person. After each sting, their "combat effectiveness" will be weakened, but it will recover after a period of rest and will not pose a threat to life. The bee is not so lucky. There is a barb on the bee's sting. After stinging, the sting will stay in the human skin and cannot be pulled out. The bee's sting is connected to the internal organs, and the internal organs will be pulled out with the sting. So bees sting people at the cost of their lives, they can only sting people once in their lives, and they will die soon after they sting people.
