Square-headed Wasp
Tribe Crabronini
Square-headed wasps are very beneficial because they dine on
flies. Wouldn't you like one
perched on your towel in the summer while you're out suntanning to ward
off those
nasty flies? According to The
University of Minnesota, Square-headed Wasps can
often be seen carrying their prey on the end of their stinger.
