Pests We Control

Wasps

Wasps are usually pretty easy to spot but can be dangerous for homeowners to attempt to remove on their own. Most species found throughout the south are “Paper Wasps” that create their nests from paper-like materials. Their stings can be very painful to humans and can cause severe allergic reactions.

Are They Dangerous To Humans?

You can usually tell if you have a wasp problem pretty quickly and you should be careful dealing with them because they can and will sting. Depending on the species, some stings can be very painful and can cause serious reactions, especially if you receive multiple stings.  Certain species, like the Mahogany Wasps, are very painful. 

Again, you really have to be careful with these pests. If you’re crawling under a back deck, there could be a nest above your head. Usually, we find their nests higher up in the outdoor soffit and the eaves of a home. They’re seasonal so they usually set up shop in the spring and come back in the fall. Usually they build their nests in the same spots because they leave a pheromone trail from the season prior.
