Yes Martin they do harm some things, namely bees and spiders, which I consider to be friends (I have no human friends). Plus I have a bit of a fear of wasps, not exactly a phobia but probably out of proportion with the actual threat (yes I know that's the definition of phobia).

I'm ok with them at this time of year while they feed off the sugars secreted by their grubs, but when that runs out they have to find other food sources and that's when they become a nuisance. And later, when they're all pissed from eating fermented fallen fruit, there's no reasoning with them.

actually asian hornets are often not much bigger than ours, but some are. they mostly kill bees, to feed their larve. their sting can kill a human, but so can ours tbh. its probably best to avoid them. i know france has an issue with them, but dont know if they are in uk. doubt they will come up here; scottish wasps and bees with put the heid in them;)

Does anyone know whether wasps benefit anything? They just seem to be a shower of shitheads with no real value to anyone. The chavs in hoodies of the insect world.

They are part of God's mysterious plan for the Universe. This video explains it all:

:lol: Not seen that for a while. Making me hungry for pie 'n' mash :)

Wasps do actually help to pollinate crops, so not all bad.

French hornets didn't seem aggressive when we were there, they flew around you once and then flew away.
The wasps on the other hand were not happy when I was destroying their nests :dynamite:

Wasps, hornets, ants and spiders don't bother me. If you don't disturb them they'll leave you alone.

I'm careful working outside 'cos we have quite a few biting spiders here, but it's not their fault if I move something they are hiding in.
