Fig Tree Problem?

What could make Bumblebees and Yellow jackets attack a fig tree and eat your figs.There is also a couple of wasp on my tree to.In all the 8 years since i had my tree this has never happen?

Fig Tree Problem?
I don't think it's the wasps or yellow jackets that are eating your figs. They only want the sugar in the figs. It's birds eating your figs. That is something you can do a little about. If the tree isn't too large, there is a plastic netting that will help keep birds out. I'm using one now and haven't lost a fig to birds yet. Also, if you pick your figs before they get extremely ripe, when they taste best anyway, you'll lower the attraction for insects. I get out early every morning and pick. You can buy the netting at Lowes or Home Depot or probably any large garden center.
Reply:figs are a food for insects, and there is not much that can be done to keep the hungry bugs away. if you spray the tree, you can't eat your figs, just try to chase the insects away and pick the fruit before any damage is done to them. good luck.
