The frog vid made me laugh, but does raise a question, is the frog as clever as Ronnie? ... and how much bling would it fit to it's car

Wasps wont bother you early on when they are nest building but when that is done the workers are just waiting to die so can then start making a nuiscance of themselves.

They eat afids that harm plants and will gobble up any rotting fruit, plus they take wood bit at a time to build the nests by landing on say a bench and mixing with their saliva.

I hate wasps too but the nest is a work of art
