Wasps and bees share several characteristics, both flying insects capable of stinging, but among their many differences is that a group of wasps are capable of killing a hive of 60,000 bees.
Murchison beekeeper and Apiculture NZ board member Ricki Leahy said a hive that had been cleaned out by wasps would be empty with only beeswax left behind.
“You might see that there is the last of the platoon of bees, standing shoulder to shoulder with swords drawn trying to defend themselves and so they are being picked off one by one, the brave little things.”
The wasps would fight their way past the bees defending their hive and eat the honey, the bees, their eggs and larvae.
