Wasps and Bees are members of the order Hymenoptera. They typically live in groups or colonies. They have two pairs of clear wings and mouthparts that are adapted for chewing. There are some main differences when comparing wasp vs. bee. Bees are the pollinators of flowering plants. Pollen and nectar of the flowering plants are used by them as a food while Wasps are attracted by sweet foods like fruit and juices, but they do not perform any kind of pollinating function. Many wasp species are predators that eat other insects like caterpillars, beetles and spiders.There are 4,000 kinds of wasps in North America. Yellow Jacket, Paper Wasp & Bald Faced Hornet, they all are wasps and found in Calgary, Alberta. Wasps are most active during the day and usually return to their nests at dusk. Each species of wasp has a slightly different life cycle. The difference lies mainly in the nest-building ritual, and how the new nests are started. Wasps build nests in the air, on the ground or even in underground burrows. The name Hornet is given to the largest type of wasps and they build their nests off the ground or high up in the leaves of trees. Unlike honey bees, which return to the same hive year after year, a wasp or hornet do not reuse the old nests. In winter, wasps leave the nest and they never re-occupy it.
