there is no point keeping wasps unless you have a Queen.


they won't survive long or do anything interesting without a queen, they will probably just want to escape, and return to thier old queen or a new one.

Yeah, remember a very important rule, research before you catch something then you will be set to take care of it;)

Like what calum said, they will be a bit miserable, and i think your should free these for the meanwhile, and research about them a bit more so the next time you catch some, you'll know exactly what to do with them. :)
