They’re cool af. Look at those colours! And the ergonomics.
I leave water bowls for them during summer.
They’re not exactly friendly but when you observe them enough you can judge if you’re annoying them and should gtfo. Most of the time they just mind their own business.
Other than mosquitoes, wasps are the only other bug I know that will seek you out because they need protein and have the means to take it from you. Most other bugs will try and avoid you.
They are doubly bad in that they can make life hell for larger wildlife. They are relentless and result in pain and irritation akin to torture. I see them on deer and horses often where they will focus on their ears with multiple wasps taking bites in the same location.
I see the necessity of every bug in a ecosystem that evolved over millions of years but that is the one and only bug that I think has less impact IMO while really making a hard existence even more difficult. I do nothing to help them exsist.

That’s pretty dope.
I just think many humans don’t grasp the concept that we can also piss something else off and should gtfo out of their area.
Especially since we make more and more parts of this planet our areas.
Yes the colors are pretty amazing. The metallic coatings.

Several flies will seek you out to bite you. Horse flies, for example. Not to mention ticks & lice & mites & other parasites.
