I guess this old glove isn’t mine anymore.
Glad I noticed the new residents before trying to put it on. Any guesses as to the species? Maybe some type of mud dauber? I guess I’ll just leave it alone and see if they emerge in the spring.
They would probably sting when disturbed tho
Infants in the glove are pre-stingy (takes some time out of the mudshell-papoose before their stingers harden, right? Wasp pubescence, brought to all by air.).
Stands to reason, untended (by adult wasps) mud dressed larvae can be relocated stinger- free.
Motivation to start an atrium? Or murder. Or sacrifice the gloves to the WaspBiome.
Damn answers leading to more questions.
An atrium?
Atrium/arboretum.
A grow space for bugs & plants is what I was thinking of. The best word or phrase to relay that is elusive to me currently (darn mental secretary taking a lunch or coffee break)
