These Things May Seem The Same, But They Have Some Pretty Important Differences

Can’t We Be Killing The Wasps Instead Of The Bees?

It’s all about saving the bees and for a good reason. Bees are the cornerstone of a large part of our ecosystem. They buzz around, pollinating plants and making honey. Wasps, on the other hand, are the dark-timeline version of bees and only serve the purpose of attacking unsuspecting humans.

In all seriousness, bees and wasps differ significantly. Bees live in more massive colonies and only attack when provoked. If a bee uses its stinger, the stinger will fall off, and the bee dies. A wasp can sting multiple times and continue being a menace.
