‘Dem wasps are mean drunks
Ah Fall. Harvest time. Apples. Cool days. Drunk wasps. Huh? Yeah drunk wasps. You see that now is the time that wasps are getting ready to hibernate for winter (at least here in BC). Of course hibernation means storing energy and that means eating. What do wasps eat? Just about anything, but especially fruit, rotting fruit, rotting fruit that has started to ferment. And fermentation means … alcohol!
So as you’re wandering the orchards picking your favourite apples, watch out for the wasps, they’re drunk and cranky.

Hi, I posted about this subject recently – I’m sure a lot of my readers thought I was delusional. It’s nice to have some confirmation
Always happy to help.
Tris,
I just picked up on this post lol – send those wasps my way. I’ll get them to go to a meeting…
