Here's a photograph (not mine) of a Polistes diminula colony living inside an ornamental butterfly house. It's from Baker and Potter's excellent article titled, "Invasive paper wasp turns urban pollinator gardens into ecological traps for monarch butterfly larvae." #monarchs #butterflies #wasps nature.com/articles/s41598-020

PSA: Wood boxes with slits that are marketed as "butterfly houses" are purely decorative. Multiple studies have confirmed that butterflies never use them. But paper wasps (Polistes) do, which is not great for butterfly populations because these wasps hunt caterpillars. Plus they sting, so not great for humans walking by. #butterflies #scam #insects #nature #garden #lepidoptera #wasps

Pesticide companies love to imply that their pyrethroid sprays can magically target mosquitoes, sparing other insects that might be totally innocent. I think we need to push back by producing lawn signs that show that when Death arrives in his white van, nothing with an exoskeleton is spared. If I could draw, I'd add fireflies, plus make the background a nice suburban yard. So just a mock-up right now. #mosquitoes #nature #fireflies #insects #monarchs #butterflies #pesticides
