Thread Waisted WaspsID please
Hi there,
I’m from Quebec, Canada. For the 2nd year I have that bug around my house. I just need the identification.(see picts enclose) I looked for your web page and I thing it is similar Cicadas Killer Wasp. Is it correct? Thanks,
Guy Rene
Excuse my English I’m a french spoker.
Hello Guy,
Your English is far better than our French. This is not a Cicada Killer. It is a Great Golden Digger Wasp, Sphex ichneumoneus. The underground nest is provisioned with paralyzed crickets and grasshoppers for the larvae to eat.
