If you say the word "wasp" you're rarely met with a response like "gah I just love them" however, it only takes a little peek into the world of wasps for someone to learn that there is MUCH more than meets the social opinion of them.

To join me this week to share the diverse world & love of the wasp is Professor Seirian Sumner. From Seirian's favourite species to the mad behaviours of some others, we even discuss why people have certain feelings about thee wonderful insects.
