The short answer is the weather. The lack of sunshine, colder climates and wetter-than-usual conditions all being contributing factors. 2024’s unusual Spring & Summer seasons have significantly impacted and disrupted the typical wasp lifecycle. Now this rain, cold and frost could have damaged or destroyed nests in their early stages of development leading to less overall wasp numbers. The life cycle of wasps in the UK are dictated by the seasons, which this year have without a doubt stalled, delayed and halted their development.
