The Paper Wasp is a type of wasp known for its distinctive paper-like nests, which they create by chewing wood fibers mixed with saliva. These nests are usually found in sheltered areas, such as under eaves or in trees. Paper wasps are generally slender and have long legs, with a coloration that can vary from yellow to brown. Paper wasps are social insects that live in colonies, typically consisting of a queen and several workers. They play a role in the ecosystem by pollinating plants and controlling pest populations, as they feed on caterpillars and other insects to nourish their larvae.
