This autumn the wasps have been surprisingly abundant and a serious problem for beekeepers. Well, in truth, for almost everyone. Surprisingly, because for two years at least they have been noticeable by their rarity.

This time, having the warmest, sunniest springand summer for five or six years has certainly been good for honeybees. But clearly it was also beneficial for wasps.
