I noticed every time I have a bbq, wasps always show up and buzz around all the meat dishes.
In: Biology
Larval wasps typically eat only meat, because they have to rely on foods that are brought to them. Therefore, they normally eat insects such as beetles, spiders, flies, and many others. The adult wasps sting and paralyze the animals, then bring them back to the nests for the larvae to feed off of.
Edit: Let me try to save you some time in posting questions like this.
You’ve observed wasps around your meat dishes when you BBQ.
You could have Googled “do wasps eat / like meat?” Or something similar.
I noticed the same thing a few years (~15? Jeez I’m old) back. I Googled it and found the answer.
I’m truly trying to be helpful. The best part about looking these things up is you can learn a lot on your journey to discoveries, and may lead to more involved/complicated questions.
