As always, the tunnels in my insect hotel's observation panel got used by grass-carry wasps (genus Isodontia). They provision their nests with tree crickets. #InsectHotel #wasps #isodontia #insects

Piece of wood in which tunnels have been carved with a router, then sealed with a piece of plexiglas. This panel gets slide back into a pocket lined with artificial grass so that the plastic doesn't get scratched.Tunnels in a piece of plastic-covered wood that are filled with clumps of dead grass and tree crickets. The cocoons of the wasps are hidden by the debris.

Mexican grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia mexicana) dragging a paralyzed tree cricket into its nest. The species is now in Europe, too, showing up first in France in the early 1960s. #wasps #insects #entomology #nature #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #isodontia #sphecidae #orthoptera

Managed to get a photograph of the parent today. Given the all-black color and pale hair I think this is a Mexican grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia mexicana). #wasps #insects #entomology #nature #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #isodontia #sphecidae

UPDATE: Here's the wasp larva after just three (3!) days eating tree crickets. What a piglet. #wasps #insects #entomology #nature #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #isodontia #sphecidae

Exciting news: a grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia sp.) has moved into the observation panel at my insect hotel. The shiny yellow object on the right is the wasp egg. The tree crickets are all alive but paralyzed. #wasps #insects #entomology #TreeCricket #nature #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #isodontia #sphecidae

Photograph of green tree crickets packed into a routered hole in a piece of wood covered with plexiglas. On one of the crickets there is small, elongate, yellow egg.
