Wohoo. Those are 100% the wasps I speak of.  :party:  (both of you)
 
yes those ones that look like they have a dry exterior husk will hatch wasps.
 
green aphid = alive
brown = maybe alive still but has had egg laid in them. Will die soon and get a husk like exterior
brown and dry / husk = dead aphid and wasp will hatch soon.
 
you are both lucky.
 
 
 
 
I had aphid problems, and I was hand squishing them for a while. I was wondering what those nasty looking white bloated and dry ones were all about. I stopped messing with them, and my aphids all disappeared. I guess I have wasps to thank. Thanks for the info guys!
