What kind of insect is very small, thin, fragile and has a painful sting?
Sometimes I come across very frail inects, less than a centimeter long, that have legs thinner than hair and are very easy to smash. Surprisingly, they can deliver a very painful sting. I often find them on plants, especially maple trees.
Thanks for your help but the insect I'm talking about doesn't look anything like a pigeon horntail wasp. It looks like a nymph, because it has no wings, and moves very slowly. add a comment
