The type of nest produced by wasps can depend on
the species and location. All social wasps produce
paper pulp nests on trees, in attics, holes in the
ground or other such sheltered areas with access
to the outdoors. By contrast solitary wasps are
generally parasitic and few build nests at all.
Unlike honey bees, wasps have no wax producing glands.
They instead produce a paper-like substance primarily
from wood pulp. Wood fibers are gathered locally
from weathered wood, softened by chewing and mixing
with saliva. The pulp is then used to make combs
with cells for brood rearing... |
