Wasp stings

In contrast to bees, wasps (ordinary wasp and hornet) are naturally aggressive. They are particularly aggressive in the autumn, when their food runs out.

Wasps feed on left over food, sweet fruits and drinks. Therefore, they build their nests close to human communities, sometimes in the roofs of houses.

A wasp’s stinger is smooth (non-barbed) and is not left in the skin when stinging. A wasp, therefore, can sting again and again.
