Why Farmers, Scientists, Ecologists Want Us to Rethink Our Fear of Wasps
Wasps are largely misunderstood insects, playing vital roles as pollinators, predators, and scavengers, far beyond their reputation for stinging. They are crucial for biological pest control, significantly reducing the need for harmful chemical pesticides by preying on crop pests. Scientists highlight their ecological importance and fascinating behaviors, urging a reevaluation of their image.
