There are about 18,000 species of wasps in North America. Roughly 20 of them can hurt you.
The wasps people fear are all from one family: Vespidae. They make up less than 1% of wasp species on the continent. They build the visible nests, they defend them aggressively, and they're the ones you remember from a bad encounter.
The other 99% live solitary lives and ignore humans entirely. Many can't sting at all. Many more have stingers but never use them on people because they don't have a nest to defend.
What they do instead is hunt other insects. A single mud dauber stocks her nest with paralyzed spiders, including widows and recluses. A braconid wasp lays eggs in tomato hornworms. An ichneumon wasp parasitizes wood-boring beetles that kill ash trees. A cuckoo wasp infiltrates the nests of other wasps and bees. Some species control aphids; others control caterpillars, beetle grubs, or flies.
Most agricultural pest insects in North America are controlled, in part, by parasitic wasps that almost no human ever sees. There are over 25,000 species of ichneumon wasps alone, and they keep entire orders of insects in check.
The five or so wasp species that ruin a picnic in late August are real. The 17,995 species that are running the pest control infrastructure of an entire continent get almost none.

So yall are okay with him talking to people crazy but when somebody gives him what he gives to them (mind you all she did was ask a question), all of a sudden it’s “he’s being disrespected” man gtfo yall are so fucking soft and love a double standard
Hard to believe Spencer Pratt lost the election despite having no experience, being highly unpopular and running in a 4:1 democratic stronghold.
Makes no sense.
Olympic gold matters for all sports but especially in tennis because it is such a global sport. Beating everyone from the many countries is cool. Stamped.
Lewis Hamilton donated over £20 million last year to the Red Cross and other various charities as well as well fully funding STEM education for disadvantaged British children via Mission 44.
That was just last year. I'm sure like you, it's not necessary he publicly note every charitable donation for people to decry or praise.
A brief search would have shown this.
@LouSirr101@365__Football@JuliaSF1993 We could say the same man lol its just about getting the actual experience if you ever have the opportunity to go see one id highly encourage it
@LouSirr101@365__Football@JuliaSF1993 Don't knock these stadiums until you try them man, same way Americans should experience football ⚽ in England, y'all should experience football 🏈 in a college stadium, Tiger Stadium in a night game itself is different
We all have to be told from his enablers and ass-kissers from his party that this reaction from a president is normal when he gets challenged on things.
The reality is he’s a small man that masquerades being an asshole as strength. He can’t stand on his lies, requires constant praise and is afraid of having to justify his lies.
He’s pathetic.
Lewis Hamilton says there should be a limit to how much wealth one person can have
"One of the things that I struggle with every day is that there is such a disparity between the wealthy and the poor”
"When you drive around LA there's still so many people living on the streets. You shouldn't be able to have billions"
"I think there should be a limit to how much you can have because there's enough to go around for everyone”
@SteveBast@JoelEmbiid “The cars are the problem” so we’re ignoring how qualifying basically tells you who’s gonna win because you can’t really overtake during the race… yea shut yo bitch ass up
