Considering we’re already just killing off native bee populations anyway, probably not
Comment on Wasps

Maybe i am just naïve but cant we just breed a fuckton of bumble and other more friendly bees to release around neighborhoods so to suppress wasp populations around humans.
Do wasps carry a role that cant be done by a different pollinator?
I get that we should strive for maximum bio diversity but the wasps where i live will literally land and crawl over your face. I can just about hold my breath and handle that, my kid cannot.

Wasps usually kill other bugs. So you might end up with more of the biting bugs without them.

TIL wasps kill spiders, (i looked it up). They are now my best friends. Wasps everywhere please. Genocide the spiders!!!
Wait then were gonna get mosquitoes……
I am starting to feel like maybe we should just let nature alone because it knows best… NAH, now that would be silly /s

Well, spiders, mosquitoes and ticks all play an important role as well ;)
In order to get less parasites maybe we should let the biosphere do its thing and through less disturbance we would probably be less affected as well.
