The cat would kill the DLLs before the DLL had chance to kill the smaller insects. The cat may not catch the very small insects.

Wasps do a big job of clearing up rotting flesh and wood.

Can't stand them, but they are a lot more useful than they appear!

So in case of a zombie apocalypse you need a bee hive

Do wasps do anything useful?

Wasps are evil bastards. One crawled up my jeans today and stung my shin. Stings like a mofo, it must be said.

Do wasps do anything useful? Bees are handy too. At least flies clean-up bird poo etc

even flies serve a useful purpose - not sure about wasps though

Rocket science is dead easy - take a tube, stick some fuel in it, light it.

Aerodynamics and ballistics, on the other hand, are significantly more complex.

Rocket Science was tricky at the hedge fund I used to work for. Most of the developers were quants too.

So users asked for a firework. And got a saturn 5 rocket.

Rocketry is an engineering discipline not a science.

I've never seen a midge or a horsefly pollinating a plant!

In Scotland you might see a wee biting creature trying to pollinate a plant

I read somewhere that the reason Scotland has so many midges is that it's too damp for wasps to thrive there.

So I guess even wasps have their uses, by keeping down the numbers of midges.
