A bee is not a type of wasp. They are both Hymenoptera, one of the 4 types of insects, but that would be the same as saying a dog is a type of human because both are Eutheria.
Ya, that’s an odd odd thing. I know people that live around actual bees, watching the commercial hives swarm in the fields during pollination. They really know what bees are. And then when a wasp shows up, they are like “Fukin BEES!!!” and break out with a can of poison.
I’ll never understand why people call wasps “bees”. They are extremely different. It’s like calling deer “horses”. Why is this a thing?
Because I just glanced at the picture while hiding my phone from customers and thought they were bees
A bee is a type of wasp, is it not? I think techniclly ants are wasps too.
