Wasps are actually beneficial insects. They eat caterpillars, flies, and other pests. That little guy buzzing around your bedroom is basically a tiny, angry organic gardener. Also, they pollinate figs—yes, figs rely on wasps. So for every stinger, there’s a fig newton somewhere.
Another fact: Wasps are territorial but not vengeful. Unlike bees, they don’t die after stinging, so they can sting multiple times. That’s why you stay calm. Think of it as a negotiation—you provide an exit, and they provide your skin.
