Ensign Wasp: Parasitic Wasp That Takes Place Within the Ootheca During Pupation (Location: My grandparents' house) Music: Water Wood and Stone by Jason Shaw

Learning about cicada killer wasps. I was interested in a group of wasps in a small tree near our apartment this summer and only belatedly realized they were not European hornets. Cicada killers are solitary and dig tunnels in which to carry cicadas and lay their eggs. The tree must have sheltered a large complex of tunnels, as there were always quite a few wasps flying around. I’ve always loved the pompiid wasps that parasitize spiders (I love spiders and their parasites), so it was great to watch another solitary parasitic wasp this summer. #sciart #easterncicadakiller #cicadakiller #cicadakillerwasp #spheciousspeciosus #parasiticwasp #naturesketching

A female Ichneumon stramentor Wasp (I believe) visiting Garden Mint yesterday for no particular reason. . She’s a handsome wee beastie! Does sting, very small and elegantly proportioned. . A parasitic wasp of some moth species. . Apparently, there are some 3000 UK wasp species. I had no idea! . #wasp #ichneumon #ichneumonstramentor #parasite #parasiticwasp #insect #moth #mint #mentha #plant #wildlife #ukwildlife #garden #herbs #gardenvisitor #iplantsman #gardening #wildlifegardening #horticulture (at Crowborough, East Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB8Jp_egHOT/?igshid=130usl6h8gjo2

Parasitic wasp I found in the living room. The "stinger" isn't a stinger, it's used to inject eggs into a host. The larvae then eat the host alive. Every insect pest has a wasp that preys on it. These are actually used as pest control since they don't damage crops.
