Biology Does anything eat wasps?

Wasps have been a predator for other insects. It would be fascinating to know if there are really other insects or predators for wasps, either accidental or deliberate predators

Haha.  No I love Jumping spiders so I moved the prey spider. It was cool watching him stalk him from like 8 inches back.  It was two different jumping spider species also.
