There are 20,000 species of wasps in the world, but in the UK we primarily have two, the German Wasp and the Common Wasp. They are social insects that form colonies inside nests specially constructed in soil, bark, roof spaces and in cavities in trees and walls. Each colony has its own queen, she is larger than the workers and starts a new nest each year. The fertilized queen emerges from her hibernation around mid-April and begins her search for a suitable site to build her nest. Once a site is located she searches for sources of wood fibre, such as trees, logs, fences and even cardboard. With her strong jaws she scrapes off bits of wood fibre, uses the saliva in her mouth to break it down until they form a soft paper pulp and begins to build her nest. The first to be born will be sterile females who will be the workers. The queen rears the first brood of worker wasps herself and once hatched these workers will carry on the building of the nest. They then too gather wood fibres and soften it by chewing and mixing with saliva. The paper is then used to make cells for brood rearing. The queen is the only wasp able to lay eggs and remains in the nest laying more eggs for further broods. By late summer the wasp nest can contain in excess of 10,000 wasps!
