What are the natural enemies of wasps?
The natural enemies of wasps are mainly birds, spiders, ants, bats, frogs, geckos, rodents and so on. Mantis in insects also has the ability to prey on wasps. In addition, there is a kind of borer moth called yellow tail nest borer that can bite the larvae and pupae in the honeycomb and destroy the hive. Of course, the biggest "natural enemy" of wasps is us.
Birds
Some birds eat wasps, and when they see a queen bee or a worker bee (whether flying or stopping), they bite the wasp with a single bite. The eagle is even more fierce, eating bees directly on the beehive.
spider
Spiders generally live in caves, and around the Qingming Festival, it will find holes inhabited by wasps. At this time, there are only queen bees in each nest, and spiders hide in the corner of the cave. After the queen bee comes to work, it eats eggs or pupae, but does not finish it. It wants to "cultivate financial resources". After the pupae become worker bees, it begins to eat worker bees, keeping them within 10 all the time. If there are more than 10 worker bees, it cannot steal them. It could even be life-threatening. It does not eat the queen bee, but does not let the queen bee escape, it will kidnap the queen bee-wrap silk around the queen's feet and force the queen to breed and feed it.
Bat
The bat mainly attacks wasps on the grass, trees, buildings and other surface surfaces. Its attack method is to find the wasp hive, eat the worker bees on the hive, and eat the worker bees outside the hive all the time, then beat the beehive and let the bees inside come out. It eats them one by one, and eventually eats all the worker bees.
Ant
Groups of attacks, and fierce not afraid of death, United everyone is afraid of ah!
Frogs
Some frogs are also good at killing wasps, squatting there motionless, staring at passing wasps, a roll of tongue, wasps have become a delicacy in the stomach.
Gecko
For geckos, no matter whether you are a wasp or a fly, they are all the same, just a delicacy.
Mouse
Rats "accidentally" become the natural enemies of wasps. When the wasp hive was still young, the mouse accidentally knocked off the wasp hive (its own life was in danger).
Wasps are actually beneficial insects for human beings, generally do not provoke it or let it feel threatened, wasps generally do not sting people, but for beekeepers, wasps are not good things, wasps are also natural enemies of bees.
