I have noticed recently that wasps seem to be drawn to my potting shed. Not the inside, but outside, which is covered with plywood. They seem to be either eating or nibbling the plywood. When all is quiet, I can actually hear them nibbling.
Has anyone else seen this strange behaviour?
Wasps do not bother me. As I open the potting shed door they buss around nearly brushing my face, but I just ignore them, then they don't feel thretened by me. The worst thing to do is start waving your arms and then they call their mates, so then you can easily get strung.
Here is some interesting facts I've found about wasps.
Wasps have various purposes for the Earth. They are a vital part of food chain. They play a critically important role in natural biocontrol. Even though wasps may appear to just be pests, but they also do massive amount of good in keeping other insect pests under control. Parasitic wasps are used in agricultural pest control. A parasitic wasps feeds on its host and then kills it! Wasps are friends to the garden. They feed on nectar off of flowers so they are pollinating the flowers. One worker wasp can kill more than 100 aphids (an insect that harms flowers and other plants) a day. Wasps were also the first makers of paper.
