Paper wasps are vespid wasps that gather fibres from dead wood and plant stems, which they mix with saliva and use to construct water-resistant nests made of a gray or brown papery material. Some types of paper wasps are also sometimes called umbrella wasps, due to the distinctive design of their nests.
