More like accidental pollinators that could easily be replaced by doing a better job protecting bees.
Should clarify, though: I specifically mean (anti)social wasps, the ones who build hives and go around harassing everyone. Solitary wasps are pretty chill afaik so they can stay.
What do you mean accidental? Do you think bees are purposely going and pollinating plants? The pollination happens as a side effect of bees gathering nectar, same as wasps
Nah, wasps probably just accidentally land in pollen on their way to ruining someone's day on purpose 😛
