Dublin Live reported - Flying ants Dublin 2020: Massive swarm set to hit Ireland as UK Met Office shares frightening radar image

To explain what this is - The insects take to the skies around this time every year for mating season in a phenomenon known as #FlyingAntDay. The flying ants are potential new female queens and male ants embarking on a mating flight. Once they have mated, on the wing, the females drop to the ground and attempt to start a new colony. Most of them will not make it, becoming bird food or dying before they are able to produce worker ants (their daughters) and develop a new colony. But some will go on to head up new colonies that will eventually produce their own flying ants. This annual phenomenal has already started for 2020 with the UK Met Office tweeting radar images of swarms so big over some parts of the country that they look like rain. Check out the Tweet HERE

Wasps are most active in the late summer months. If you disturb them or they feel threatened, they can be aggressive. No one wants a wasp sting which can be very painful and even cause an allergic reaction.

Wasps build their nest from saliva mixed with dried timber and chewed bark which results in a beige/light grey colour construction with a papery like appearance. The Nests can be suspended from trees, nest boxes, rafters in attic spaces, garden sheds, cavity walls – are sometimes formed underground.
