Wasp

April 04, 2020

Though Vespula vugaris, the so-called common wasp, does not make honey (according to some), there are numerous species of wasps that do. That said, honey-making wasps tend to only produce in small amounts, insufficient for human cultivation. Brachygastra lecheguana, for example, found in Central and South America, produces very fine honey indeed. However, eat it at your peril when Datura species are blooming.
