I mean it is on Sky News.
And where are wasps at, remember?

As a pest control professional, I assure you that wasps aren't trying to fuck you up. They get aggressive in the late season but for the most part they won't fuck with you unless you are a threat. I've knocked down countless wasp nests with my brush and only been stung a few times. Those times I got stung I was really asking for it by how I went about it. They're also accidental pollinators so they do help more than people think.

European Wasps are an invasive species where I live and they're fucking up a lot of the local flora and fauna. Also "wasps" is a huge group of species and they're hard to generalise about

Maybe this is hippie talk, but I simply don't bother any animal. I don't need an article to tell me they deserve to exist.

Sounds like Big Wasp propaganda

I like the wasps around my house, they're Apache wasps I think. I've shooed them away, worked next to them, they just watch me or fly around. Seems I need to really try to anger them.

Mud daubers are cool too but their life cycle is nightmare fuel, I feel for the spiders.

Fool me once, shame on you.

Fool me twice... Can't get fooled again.

if sky news says they're beneficial they're probably trying to fuck you out of your retirement plan or something

This does have the vibe of those pro-billionaire articles the Washington Post puts out...

Wasps are actually pretty useful in nature, in contrast to the parasitic life form knows as homo sapiens.

They HAD their chance, and they used it to be assholes.

I love having wasps around my garden. They fly around my veggies picking off any caterpillars they see, I don't even use pesticides because the wasps do such a good job keeping the populations low.

I'd expect this but from Sky News Australia *squints*

According to Lord Sauron, wasps are just trying to help, and are very misunderstood. Please let them into your house, they will reform.

Just give wasp an entry level job bro, what’s the worst that could happen

They're all vicious assholes that get irritated by the most mundane things so I'm gonna expect them to sting me and they have for no reason that I could tell... Also these look like yellow jackets, which are particularly annoying but not as annoying as the 4 species of hornets battling for territory around my old house. I think bumblebees are cute though they will boop you and not try to kill you.

Compromise, we eradicate yellow jackets

I mean it's a known fact that WASPs rule the media.

Meanwhile, the wasp in my house...

"Harrrryyyyyy!'
