Paper Wasp Nest

A collection of high quality backyard wildlife photos.
Published by in Unexpected Visitors ·

I noticed this paper wasp nest under the eve on the side of my house and my first instinct was to destroy it...  But, I decided to go to google first.  After identifying the type of wasp, Paper Wasps (I believe), I read the pros and cons of killing them.  As for now, I am going to leave it alone as they are considered a beneficial insect and it is way high up out of the way.  

I took the photo above and watched it for several minutes and the wasps didn’t seem to be bothered or bother me so at least for now, they will live.

I would love to hear your comments or wasp stories if you have one to share.  Maybe you can change my mind.
