A defense tower with a wasp colony
The Bladewasp Hive is a defensive structure in ARK: Survival Ascended, listed by the ARK Wiki under Bob's Tall Tales. A colony of Bladewasps lives inside. According to its in-game description, the wasps chase small creatures off and hurt flying creatures gradually. The hive uses up sulfur to fire, and it needs honey before it activates.
