Representative example of paired oscillograms (obtained during replicate 6 of Exp. 2), depicting strikes caused by wasps hitting the control and treatment target of the bioassay apparatus (Fig. 1). Venom gland extract of worker wasps and acetonitrile at equivalent amount as a solvent control were applied to the treatment and control target, respectively (see methods for details).
