Did you know if you give paper wasps multicolored construction paper, they will make rainbow-colored nests instead of the usual gray? A biology student did just this, and the results are colorful!
Almost makes me want wasps around so they can decorate my porch with rainbow colored nests. Well…almost.
Here’s the whole article with all the pictures. Enjoy.

You’re welcome. I think they’re really pretty too (even if I hate wasps!)

My daughter said ” I would not give that paper to wasps. I hate wasps they are flying death.” Sure it’s melodramatic. That is her in a nutshell 🙂 She cracks me up!

It would certainly make them easier to find so you could destroy them! We get a lot of them around our home but can’t always find the source.
