Hornet & Wasp Facts

A hornet is a type of wasp and they are very prevalent on peoples' properties. They come around when it starts to get warm outside and stay to build their nests. The nests house hundreds of these pests and can be harmful to your health.

They are easily irritated and if they are provoked they will try to defend themselves by stinging. They have a colony in their nests and will keep reproducing in them. This can cause your property to be infested by them.

Signs of a Wasp Nest

Spotting one or two wasps may indicate a hidden nest on your property. Wasps often build nests in concealed areas like eaves, attics, or behind shutters. Here are some signs to watch for:

  • Increased Wasp Activity: If you notice several wasps flying around a particular area, it’s a sign there may be a nest nearby.
  • Congregation in One Area: Wasps tend to cluster around their nest. Seeing them frequently gather in one spot suggests a nest is hidden nearby.
  • Visible Nest: Some nests, especially hornet nests, may be visible. They often resemble paper-like structures, typically found in trees or under eaves.
  • Buzzing Noises: A faint buzzing from walls or ceilings can indicate a hidden nest.
  • Chewed Wood: Some wasps use chewed wood to build nests. Finding this material nearby could be a sign of nesting activity.

If you observe any of these signs, contacting professional pest control can prevent further infestation and avoid potential stings.

 

Health Risks Associated with Hornet and Wasp Stings

Hornets and wasps pose significant health risks, especially for individuals allergic to their venom. Even non-allergic individuals can experience swelling, pain, and discomfort from a sting. In severe cases, wasp or hornet stings can cause anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction requiring immediate medical attention. By hiring professional pest control services, you can avoid these dangers and ensure a safe environment for you and your family.

How to Prevent Hornet and Wasp Infestations

Preventing hornets and wasps from building nests on your property is the best way to avoid dealing with a full-blown infestation. Here are some tips:

  • Seal Entry Points: Ensure there are no gaps in your home's siding, eaves, or window frames where hornets or wasps can enter.
  • Remove Food Sources: Hornets and wasps are attracted to sweet foods and drinks, so keep garbage cans sealed and clean up spills.
  • Eliminate Standing Water: These pests are also drawn to water sources, so ensure that puddles, birdbaths, and other stagnant water are removed or maintained. By taking these preventative steps, you can reduce the chances of hornets and wasps choosing your property as their home.
