Wasps

Yes, wasps can be considered pests when they build their nests in areas where people frequently pass or where they pose a threat to humans or pets. Wasps can sting, and in some cases, their stings can cause allergic reactions, which can be life-threatening.

To control wasp infestations, there are several steps you can take:

1. Identify the location of the nest: Carefully observe the wasp’s behavior to locate their nest.
2. Keep food and drinks covered: Wasps are attracted to sweet and sugary substances. Keeping food and drinks covered can help prevent them from being attracted to your outdoor activities.
3. Keep trash cans sealed: Wasps are attracted to garbage, so keep your trash cans sealed to prevent them from being attracted to your home.
4. Seal cracks and gaps: Seal any cracks or gaps in your home’s exterior to prevent wasps from building nests inside.
5. Use a wasp trap: You can buy or make wasp traps to catch and kill wasps.
6. Call a professional: If you have a large or dangerous infestation, it’s best to call a professional pest control company to remove the nest safely.

Remember to be careful around wasps, especially if you or anyone in your family is allergic to their stings. If you’re unsure about what to do, consult a pest control professional for help.
