There seems to be quite a universal fear when it comes to... flying yellow stripy things. We won't be hypocrites here, we also have quite intense reactions when we see one of them buzzing around our apartments. But, not all of them are evil. They may look similar, but some of them are bees, some are wasps, we were all quite familiarized with Cicadas a few years ago. Some of them can be quite nice actually, not something to run away from. We have a whole collection of stories of bees and wasps choosing humans as their friends for example.
There's a lot to know about these yellow stripy things. Did you know that once a teen rescued a bumblebee and then it refused to leave her side or that a person actually befriended a wasp and her family once? Yeah, even wasps - although we don't recommend trying to recreate that story. For those of you in need of a little more knowledge, we've prepared a comprehensive guide to walk you though the differences in the yellow flying thingies.
