Please don´t be silly, keep enjoying your figs. The wasps are a natural part of the fig and have never bothered you before, have they? They are so tiny you don´t even notice them and they are necessary for the life cycle of the fig tree because they are its pollinators. Without the wasps there would simply be no figs. Its a symbiosis that is the result of a co-evolution of fig trees and fig wasps. I especially recommend pairing figs and cheese, delicious!
Thank you! I appreciate your explanation - I didn't realise it was part of the life cycle, not knowing made it easy to assume something worse
