That's neat Millie,
I like the cage a lot. I need a cage similar to that with compartments for different species and stages. See the little broom and dustpan there. They use that to scoop the frass. (Figuring it is good for a mix of organic fertilizers.) Plus it is imeritive to keep the cages clean, and pesticides far from the organic garden too. I need to get a big butterfly net to catch the wasps. They patrol one at a time for the nest, like scouts. If they fail to come back they might get a clue, to avoid my area. I'm thinking again, lol!!
I was deadheading my Moonvine a couple years ago and forgot about the wasp nest there. Right at eye level!! Needless to say they all rushed my face at once, but I only received one bite, under my left eye. Oh yea that hurt!, I relate bigtime, and it took a week for the swelling to go down.

Got a few good shots in today before the rain. I will share a couple here. This is Cabbage White>
