Polistes gallicus

Polistes gallicus and other insects can't acually pierce the skin of grapes, but once a bird have done so, insects start a restless activity that prevent the plant to cicatrise, often some juice drip down in to the bunch causing it to rotten.

 

Polistes gallicus y otros insectos no logran perforar la piel de la uva, pero si algun pajaro lo hace los insectos empiezan una continua actividad que no permite a la uva de cicatrizar, sovente un poco de zumo empieza a gotear en el racimo causandone la putrefaccion.
