Once fallen apples have a hole pecked in them by a bird, the slugs and wasps can get to work.
At this time of year worker wasps have stopped feeding the grubs in their colony on caterpillars and other meat. The queen has stopped laying eggs. Now they can please themselves by searching out sugary stuff. It can be nectar or jam or beer or cream teas or fallen fruit.
It's a jolly festival time for them. They won't trouble you unless you accidentally squash them.
