That’s good for me
I’m chronically, irrationally petrified of them even though I don’t mind being stung. I’m unable to stop myself from jumping in front of a car in a split second if I see one.
That said, they’re important accidental pollinators and good at getting other insects down. By the time we see them though, they’ve done their job and turn into the drink England fan of the insect world. Wish they’d just do their job in the early Summer and then just die.
