Why Are Wasps Good For A Garden? Hint: It's Not For Pollination

- Wasps often get a bad rap for being dangerous insects that can sting you. Although there is a possibility of being stung, generally speaking wasps are tame and only get defensive if their nest is disrupted. In the garden wasps are an ally helping to control many unwanted pests that can do damage to your crops.
Everything in this life has a purpose. I just found a baby wasp squirming around on its back looking like it was about to die. I put him on a bit of paper and gave him some sugar water. He drank quite a bit, sat and cleaned himself for a bit, started fluttering his wings for a few seconds and then flew off outside. All animals and creatures should be cared for and protected even the stinging ones 🌎🐝
Those wasps always clean themselves before flying away. And they don´t use water, they are better than us :)
And then I fed it to my chicken
I've noticed some wasps hanging around my apartment balcony basil plants. This is what I assumed they were up to so I'm glad to hear it confirmed! I guess I should get a dish of water out there to say thanks! :)
Nothing irritates me more than to go someplace and see wasp traps for sale. Ignorance is all around us.
Ward New yep, they don’t realise the problems that killing wasps can cause
Not just around, it's in us too. It's in me too I know, but it doesn't apply to wasps. I'll let a hornet build a nest in my bedroom rather than harming it. If it's not an Asian giant hornet.
What about hornets? They dont do anything but kill bees.
I have a nest of yellow paper wasp at my place which I decided to keep around due to them being non aggressive. I was initially concerned but I did my research and found they’re good to keep around because they help pollinate and keep the bugs down.
It’s understandable that people don’t want wasps around if they’re going to be agro, kinda wish we could communicate to the wasp, tell them you’re not a threat to their nest. I wonder if they respond to the right pheromones?
Keep yapping I knew somebody who got stung for just mowing their damn lawn FK WASPS TO THE RANCH DIMENSION
Your chicken should be your channels mascot. What a unique and funny chicken. What's her name? I'm noticing many garden channels have a mascot the subscribers get to know and love. Yours could be that funny chicken.
I like your idea. Her name is Tweezy. Cheers!
I’m constantly saving wasps and bees from my pool. And I’m even allergic to them both. But I love all creatures and respect them ❤
Till u get stung
I have a wasp nest under my carport and the wasp frequently visit my nearby garden.
By coincidence I was bit by a wasp today! It was a nest in a bad spot, just like you say, so it had to go. I'm so glad you made this video! Wasps truly are hunters in the garden and I love watching them work.
me too. I love wasps and hornets. That´s funny to watch and handfeed them. Have got a nice paperwasp nest, but it´s small. I´m waiting for larvae. And there aren´t many hornets in my country now, its June there. and I HATE wasp trappers. See this vid and you will fall in anger... th-cam.com/video/Fd3KKFAZV5o/w-d-xo.html&lc=z22wz5zguqvvft3dmacdp430ax5u5ogdp4ajmhc2bnlw03c010c.1560372651300041
Esp. see 9:42 in that wasp trapping. It´s a big wasp genocide!
Lovely video, I got a nest of yellow paper wasps which I decided to keep around. Love the shots of your chooks, cute devices they are.
That you for teaching me something new.
there are so many negative waps videos on here with fools trying to kill them but those bugs are more helpful that people know for some reason they have a huge bad rap.
9:42 in this... th-cam.com/video/Fd3KKFAZV5o/w-d-xo.html&lc=z22wz5zguqvvft3dmacdp430ax5u5ogdp4ajmhc2bnlw03c010c.1560372651300041 and please help me with fighting with those stupids
@@MarSHornetsandWasps-v26 I tried but i don’t think I can because look at how many of those vids are
I can’t deal with them, I’ve got a huge fear from childhood trauma but I still don’t go out of my way to kill them unless they build their nest too close to my garden cause I can’t handle them being defensive
@@MarSHornetsandWasps-v26womp.womp.womp maybe they should stop attacking people
I've even seen them eat small spiders. We were having a drought hear in MN this year. I think the lack of rain water and the lack of mosquitoes caused them to go after other things. We've had a bit of rain lately. Right now I have yellow jackets & flies in my Linden trees for some reason. They fly tree tree to grass. Like they're transporting something. Interesting but curious. The leaves are getting little dark spots from being minorly bitten. Maybe some kind of sap transfer.
I didn't know this thanks for informing me :)
I love social wasps, they're my favourite animal. I don't mind them and if a European hornet will build a nest in my bedroom, I'll let it be instead of destroying the nest, even if the hornet builds it right next to mine head. They're tame and if you have a queen building a nest in your house, feed it on hand with honey and they'll become tame.
I see your happy chickens again; one of them has very fancy hairstyle. :)
I have planted 3 cherries , 3 peach and 3 plum trees around my house. The trees are 15 feet away from my deck and once they grow they might come very close to the deck. Will that bring wasps too close to my family and kids? I will not be able to harvest all the fruit. So will ripe fruit also attract more and more wasps?
Except for japanese hornets, but these giants are just selecting the best type of bee which will survive...
Yes, wasps are so useful as pest hunters, but it´s not good to let them to do colony improvement... I like wasps and hornets, and the hornets are the controllers of wasps. Improved yellowjackets won´t have enough prey in pests, so they could probably attack bees. And hornets are also very peaceful and funny
Great to know! TFS😊
Thanks !
I’ve seen red wasps attacking vine borer moths and cucumber beetles before.
nice garden! Recycled Cottage and Garden recommended you.
What kind of chicken is the black and white one? I need one in my life...lol
we are in zone & long island seems the bees are disappearing. how or should i attract more garden buddies
You are right, but some people have some problems with them cuz they say about stings without reason... it´s not real, I know wasps and I know that
This is why it's evil to destroy wasp nests, like some people do by using them as metal casts.
Maybe Next Time they'll evolve to stop stinging us
😊😉😍
