Wasp nests

Well, we did not have rain in the spring, and the wasps all died out, except for polistov, hornets can also, they did not work, but we have so few of them that if you see one in a good season, it's good) Now I'm afraid, how will I be without the OS, and suddenly they won't recover or they will take years to recover? We simply don't have Germanics at all. This is still how long it will take for the population to recover from the foci..

Oh wasps wasps, how to be now ))

Yes, the os is really not visible (although I do not pay special attention to them). There are hornets-no less than usual, I think. Polisty like, too, were.

Nifiga itself news..

In general, this is such a thing after all.. I would have known in advance last season that it would be possible to freeze the corpses, it could be a megashtam of some virus that can destroy the entire population.. Of course, some would have thought to use it to destroy annoying oss, but not for us ) We would make a vaccine!

Meanwhile in Belarus...

Yes, now, in my opinion, they have a mass market everywhere. In the Ministry of Defense, according to personal observations, this is the end of July-mid-September. And the journalists burned it out by depicting a girl with a bottle of water, however: wasps love beer, not water Once, before my eyes, my younger brother swallowed it together with beer from the neck of the bottle and thank God managed to spit it out...... And it was just at the beginning of August

Is that where they have a wasp sanctuary now
Well, we need to lobby for the import of Belarusian queens to the south of the Mykolaiv region, I think 50 000 individuals will be enough for a start )))

Yes, we can also export.... It's strange, but it's hard to believe that you don't have an OS. Today, in the morning already a couple of pieces of some kicked out of his balcony

And journalists burned out the image of a girl with a bottle of water, however: wasps like beer, not water  

Mda who is talking about what, and a drunk about beer In fact, the girl with the bottle symbolizes the heat,
and there is nothing to attribute to the wasps the love of beer, they love sweets, beer is for beer bellies

and there is nothing to attribute to wasps the love of beer, they love sweet things, beer is for beer bellies

They also like beer as well as any other fermentation products: wine, for example, or spoiled apples (padanka, etc.) and other vegetables and fruits that are often thrown out near gardens in August.
That's where you need to look for the os at this time and they will definitely be

Well, actually, seriously, the wasps "love" sugar, and in agusta-September they are looking for sources of sugar due to the fact that the nest completes its life cycle, young larvae, which during their development feed the wasps with sugar, a little.
So no fermentation! Alcohol is yad ))

Wasps werep discord. Today I told a friend that there were not enough wasps, and he said: I have a lot of them in my yard. We went to look (the case is in the "private sector") - these are polists.

Well, I wouldn't say that there are any changes in the sheets-as much as usual.
In general, a very good "monitoring" is for German wasps - these are trays on the market where sweets are sold, and there at the end of August you can estimate what the losses are
Garbage containers attached to the house are also an indicator, personally, we have silence in the trash, they do not fly)
By the way probably a lot of undisguised slavery was and will be among those who make jam)

Yes, with the sheets, everything seems to be OK. I mean, when someone says that they've supposedly seen a lot of " oss " - you need to check what they've seen there. And what kind of "wasps" Belarusians have-no one knows either...

Well, in general, polists, they are not as annoying as germanics, it is the latter that are usually the nightmare of many people at the end of summer) I remember from my own experience - all spontaneous wasp bites were Germanic, they are impudent, they climb anywhere, they almost get into their mouths and ears )))

With Belarusians, it's not very good here at all, they have the same batska Internet passes through them)) But from Moldova, you need to ask them a lot )

Lucky you,but I have hornets do not want to live, only Saxon and German wasps.

hornet, who's so lucky? Germanics are there - what else is needed for shchastya then Hornets and we do not really live, but without Germanics in general boredom

After reading this topic, I put a bait for wasps on the balcony.
They arrive. So they're not extinct
These aren't polysts, are they?

Pictures:

Well, these are German ones, one even looks like vulgaris, but they don't fly at all in our country. It's not even familiar somehow, usually the garbage cans are all straight with a yellow halo, but now it's quiet, and they don't fly on sweets either. But occasionally I have seen germanicus, I have already seen three wasps in the whole season, I hope that they will recover.

And that there are a lot of wasps in the market where sweets are sold a lot of flies?

On the balcony now constantly 1-2 wasps are sitting on the bait, I don't know if this is a lot or a little
I didn't pay much attention to the market, so I'll have to take a look.

Well, in principle, this is a lot) Maybe the nest is nearby, look at what you have in the markets, maybe everything is as usual, then the wasps will settle to us from your edges, in general, this is where the advantage of inet communications is, it would be possible to outline the boundaries of epizootics if there were a lot of interested participants, in general, the opportunities are huge, only our specialists do not need it))

Guys, we really need empty wasp nests or hornets ' nests...or rather, the cells themselves. I am an artist from Kharkiv and my children and I decided to make a beauty out of these very honeycombs. We made an agreement with the Donetsk guys in the fall , but they don't have time for that now...

We have wasps flying in the markets, sooo little, but there are places where they sell sweets and grapes, in principle, there is hope that everything will be fine, but next season-hardly anything will be good until the population recovers..

Yes, we also have wasps in the market (on watermelons-melons). But it seems that there are more polysters. And on the balcony, they almost do not fly.
I also noticed this, sometimes wasps on the balcony fight over food, in theory this means they come from different nests? After all, it is pointless for working wasps to fight from one nest... from the point of view of evolution...

Yes, this season you can observe a unique picture, when polistov more than germanicus And about fights near food, I constantly observed near their nests, near kotoyrkh I put fish and sugar syrup, as sometimes the wasps drove each other away, and they were from their own nest, and sometimes they grappled and fell down )) It is also pointless for people from the same family to fight from the point of view of evolution, but they fight the same way!
So not the fact that from different nests...

About people, of course, a little provocative, but if we discard the cultural and moral aspect, I do not agree.

People from the same family, such as brothers, still have different genotypes (on average, only half of their genes are shared). Those who eat more will, on average, leave more offspring, meaning their genes will reproduce more efficiently. Therefore, the tendency to fight for food can be supported by selection.
This is not the case with wasps. The worker wasp does not reproduce directly, nor does it pass on its genes to its offspring. Her "reproductive success" will not improve if she takes food away from her sister who works for the same nest. Why fight? So I understand.

Well, as for the wasps, you are right of course, they do not need to fight, but whether you want to believe it or not, they fight Simply, you should not strongly mechanize the animals, any creature, including the wasp, has a certain level of freedom of action, and given its low so-called "mental organization"))), then all the more so)
When the wasp is in the nest, it is involved in some processes, when it is on the prey, it sees even in its fellow tribesman a competitor, and at the same time it may have problems recognizing its own and others'.
I observed social insects, including more socially developed bees, and so with the smallest deviations in the hive, the bees will gnaw themselves inside the nest, not like wasps on the hunt))
So why fight is not a simple question)

And by the way, wasps and bees in the nest are not always, or rather practically not always genetically homogeneous, you need to take into account that the uterus mates with several males, only males are homogeneous to the female, due to parthenogenesis.

So far, such a result of a sharp decrease in the number of wasps has been observed on the surface - all grape shops are covered with flies And one or two wasps rarely fly there. But they still fly! So there is hope for the next season

We have a lot of them.They fly almost everywhere.

Emae men, che theme os died ?

Topic like a topic and wasps are sleeping and waiting in the wings

Of course, a bit provocative (c)KM2200, but I dare to draw the audience's attention to an interesting observation: participants from Ukraine note a sharp decrease in the number of oss in 2014, and participants from Russia - on the contrary.

It can be hypothesized that the wasps migrated to the dark raska-parashka, from the enlightened European Ukraine. Neither insects alien to high European values found life there sweeter, nor were they afraid. Each new law of the Ukrainian parliament is more and more surprising, suddenly, in the absence of a sufficient number of human recruits, they will decide to attract them so that the Russian-terrorist troops will clamp down? Probably from the Lviv region, the wasps migrated to Poland, following the bipedal population. Is there anyone here from Poland, you have not seen an outbreak of vespin numbers there? As if next spring in Ukraine, the topic of ants also did not die.

This phenomenon certainly needs to be studied in detail at the international level. Undoubtedly, the relationship between the population dynamics of insects and the socio-political situation in the country is the most promising area for Ukrainian entomology, and I predict that it will become its main growth point for the next decade.

Comrade Kiselyov, why do you write on the forum as a guest? Where are our local onanim restaurants!? Please register!

In general, as for the celebrations, I see that some participants are still celebrating the New Year! And they note, judging by the above text-very good!
As for promising areas, while for Ukrainian oenotomology they are still debatable, for Russian biology the priorities for the next decades are clear - this is the synthesis of food products directly from oil, and kissel-directly from the TV, during acc. transfers. Although one thing pleases-import substitution of entomological boxes has already been established, and the German nose in this area is lost.

Don't make me laugh, my dear fellow, what prospects can there be for current Ukrainian entomologists? Get a summons and go to the "ATO zone"? This may be news to you, but no one is going to take Ukraine to the EU anymore. In your country, even the industry decided to kill completely, and science-even more so. Even the international hymenopteran symposium was moved from your glorious European paradise to Raska parashka "for obvious reasons." I predict that in the next couple of years 90% of scientists will migrate abroad, mostly to Russia. And even the new initiative of your president-not to let men under 60 out of the country-will in no way have a favorable impact on the "brain drain". Moreover, I will tell you in confidence: many are already here. The science of Ukraine, which has already been sliding into the abyss for 24 years, is waiting for the final sunset. And there is nothing happy about this for me, because the NAS of Ukraine and the Russian Academy of Sciences were almost a single organism until recently, and now part of it has been destroyed. It's actually very sad. The only thing that amuses me is the attitude of individuals who are spiritually like you, dear Hierophis, who are very happy about what a wise person can only grieve about. And my anonymity is due to the fact that the scientific community has a pluralism of opinions on public life and politics, and I would not like to sow the seed of discord with any of its representatives. And if this forum implies the possibility of an anonymous response, then this is quite acceptable to its administration. Please allow me to take my leave.

Your anonymity is actually explained by the fact that you are afraid, thanks to the aforementioned "grain of discord", to openly state your position, and lose personal benefits. But do not be afraid, people who support European civilization are usually pragmatic and cultured, but we often see the opposite examples. Moreover, for some reason, the children of your own officials, who so zealously denounce the decaying West, study and live in it, is incredible, isn't it? Although in general, I personally am for anonymity with two hands for, unlike some participants who put forward the idea of registering only with a passport )))
Everything negative that you have listed is a consequence of the aggressive policy of the Kremlins, or Kiselyov's tales.
But this process "after all, the NAS of Ukraine and the Russian Academy of Sciences were almost a single organism until recently, and now part of it has been destroyed" may manifest itself in a positive way, because all sorts of symposiums and conferences where votku is drunk are not science, research and the announcement of their results are usually carried out in other places and in other ways
When our science is dominated by European criteria and principles for evaluating effectiveness - namely, the quality of research work and the researcher's aspirations will be put at the forefront, and not the number of symposia and other moderate events, and the principles of European funding will be used, and the principle of fraternization and internecine meetings will go into the dark past, no wounds to us they won't be needed!

And there is no need to bow down here, gentlemen-everyone is in Paris

Not only a provocateur, but also an idiot cosmic

Not only is he a provocateur, but he's also a cosmic idiot

Absolutely true! He even hinted about it himself, well, here you
are Dmitry Kiselyov: "Live broadcast is like a flight into space"

Has anyone seen a queen aspen this season, not counting polistov? I have no one, something appears vague doubts..

Do not hesitate, dear Hierophis! Yesterday I saw a queen hornet in my yard looking for a place to build a nest.
