Although bees will attack when they encounter danger, especially when someone picks their honey. It is not pleasant to be stung by them, but often the bees will die soon after they sting.
And in nature, even bees are very powerful, they still have natural enemies, and the biggest natural enemy is the wasp. It is known as the "natural enemy of bees". They like to steal honey and prey on bees.
In the past, farmers saw wasps and hid from a distance. I just fear that I am stung by it, and this feeling is not good. But now someone specializes in raising wasps. Why is this? Can wasp produce honey? Let’s learn about this together!
brief introduction to huh
huh huh is also called huh , tiger head bee , wasp , and some places are also called huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh It is a general term for the Hymenoptera and the general family of the hornets. There are more than 5,000 species of worldwide, and there are nearly 200 species of wasp recorded in my country, almost all over the country.
The difference between the bees and the bees we usually see is quite different. The most obvious feature is that they are larger and more ferocious. I believe many people have heard the old saying " hornet's nest cannot be stabbed", because this kind of bee is more ferocious and it will be very dangerous after being stabbed.
The commonly known as hornet's nest is the nest of hornets, and it is really dangerous once they are provoked. It is known among the people as " killer bee ". is 5 to 7 times more toxic than bees. An adult may suffer from acute renal failure as long as he is stung by a wasp 5 times.
Wasp is not only strongly toxic, it is different from bees. A bee can only sting once, and then it will leave the poisonous needle in the other party's body. This is because the bee worker bee has a barb on the sting needle , and one end is connected to the internal organs. After a fierce attack, even the internal organs will be pulled out and killed.
But the wasp is different. Its sting needle is a purer weapon. It can continuously chase without endangering life, and then inject venom into the opponent's body. heads are already large, there is a lot of venom in the body, and it is very toxic, so it is really uncomfortable to be stung by it.
In China, people are often stung by wasps in summer, and in severe cases, they may even cause death. This is also the reason why it is called the "killer bee".
hornets are also called "bee natural enemies"
hornets are very vigilant, and they are all "hard-tempered". When they encounter danger, they will issue a warning and then rise up to attack the other party. Some wasp swarms are extremely vigilant. is within 20 meters of its nest. If other creatures enter, they will directly attack the other party.
It is precisely for this reason that experienced people will not continue to approach the nest when they see the wasp's nest, but will leave quickly, otherwise they will be stung.
In addition, wasps are also a very killer insect. They do not collect honey like bees, but are an omnivorous bees. In other words, hornets are a group of crazy raiders. Every year when bees make honey, they will go out to search in groups. When they find bees, they will attack in groups and seize the fruits of other bees' labor. If a wasp swarm attacks a bee, it will kill dozens of bees in just one minute, which shows how harmful it is.
At the same time, adult wasps will also suck nectar from other flowers, and some will directly prey on bees. This is also the reason why many beekeepers are most afraid of isps. Once they find , they will find a way to kill them or drive them away, otherwise they will lead the bee colony to prey on bees and snatch honey.
is also because wets do not produce honey, so their nests are not beeswax, but are caused by dead branches, leaves or animal feces. This is also one of the biggest differences between wets and bees.
was once regarded as a pest by beekeepers, but now it is cultivated by humans
However, in the wasp that was often hated by beekeepers in the past, someone now specializes in breeding it. Since wets cannot produce honey, what is the value of raising them?
In recent years, wet breeding has emerged in some mountainous areas in the south. Among them, a few farmers in Hunan, Guizhou, Yunnan and Sichuan have realized their dream of becoming rich by breeding wets. According to the beekeeper of the breeding, although wet farming is dangerous and difficult to breed than bees, it has much higher economic benefits and has good market prospects.
The author knows that although a wasp does not produce honey, it can get rich through various channels. For example, if you sell queen bee seedlings, the queen bee of is sold for 80-120 yuan, while if it is a standard bee colony, it can be sold for 1,000-1,500 yuan. Because many people also like the breeding prospects of wasps, they will buy queen bees or bee colonies to breed them.
Of course, the main purpose of raising wasp is to use its bee pupa , which is a very popular authentic specialty food in the market. can usually be sold for 120-180 yuan per pound. Because bee pupa has been a pure and natural nourishing food since ancient times. It has the characteristics of high protein, low fat, rich in vitamins and a variety of trace elements. Often a nest of bee pupa can sell for 1,000-2,000 yuan, and some will be even higher.
In addition, even adult wasps have a market, and the most common one on the market is to soak in wine. In the "Compendium of Materia Medica" by Li Shizhen , it is recorded that wasp is used as medicine, and it also pointed out that it has the effect of "it is shiny for a long time to take, good color, does not age, and is lighter and nourishes qi." Therefore, it has broad application prospects and economic value for the development and utilization of wasp resources.
written at the end
In fact, although wasps are dangerous, they also love to prey on bees and steal honey, they are also beneficial to agriculture. Because wasps also like to eat pests such as grasshoppers and Doutiane, they can also use them to prevent and control a variety of crops, forests, and fruit tree pests.
In addition, domestic wasp breeding is still in its infancy, and most people in are still not very acceptable to breed isp breeding. First of all, it is indeed too dangerous. Many beekeepers are worried that too much breeding will be detrimental to bee breeding.
Secondly, its technology is not very mature, and most people lack this technology. Of course, the most important point is that the market has not been fully opened yet, and beekeepers are worried that they will not be able to sell it in the future.
