Why do wasps sting?
Only female wasps and bees can sting, because they have eggs in them. When a girl wasp stings you they lay eggs in you. That's they leave a bump, just if you were wondering. when a wasp stings a human, it is because they think that they are going to their nest. The wasp signals the rest of the colony to attack. Wasps sting because they think they are going to hurt them, and because they are scared of us, because we are so big.
