Wasps as natural pest control to curb caterpillars and beetle larvae in gardensFinding wasp nests under the eaves of garden buildings often causes alarm, but this proximity offers practical advantages. Wasps act as natural defenders of the vegetable garden by hunting pests on a large scale. Andrey Tumanov, Chairman of the "Moscow Union of Gardeners": "Wasps feel perfectly fine in summer houses. As carnivorous predators, they hunt flies, beetle larvae, and caterpillars to provide protein for their larvae. Prevention: To prevent queens from entering residential zones to build nests, gardeners should seal gaps in wall cladding and cover ventilation holes with fine mesh.
