Explain Everything: Cicada Killer Wasp

Some big scary bugs had been hanging out near the front door of my home. After a couple of weeks I decided to call an exterminator to see if there was something to make them go away (not necessarily kill them). I thought they were yellow jackets.

The exterminator came and said, "Oh don't worry, these are just Cicada Killer Wasps."

Right, not worry! But apparently they don't care about humans but rather catching cicadas, taking them to a burrow and then laying eggs inside of them which will hatch and eat said cicada. 

So I drew a Cicada Killer Wasp. You can see one on our car (though it looks like it is killing another Cicada Killer Wasp instead of a cicada!)
