Wasps Control

Wasps (including paper wasps, hornets and yellow jackets) All of these insects are part of the Hymenoptera order, and as such, the stings they receive are often known as Hymenoptera stings. Because a lot of them live in colonies,

If you are stung then you might be bitten by a variety of. Although the majority of stings cause minor health problems but some stings could cause serious health issues and may even cause death. A common sting may be treated using ammonia, chilled poultices, or even alcohol then an antihistamine ointment. If the victim is pale and unwell, with nausea and giddiness, it is advised to seek medical attention immediately.

The fertilized queen wasp is released from hibernation the middle of April, and seeks an uninvolved, safe location for her colony. The first batch of eggs laid (sterile females) will then assume the task of expanding the nest and feeding to support the nest. The egg-laying process continues until the end of summer, when the queen will lay eggs that will produce males and queens. They will then mate, with fertilized females and flee to find a suitable location to rest in hibernation.

As the days get cooler, conditions, the workers get more aggressive and sluggish at anyone who tries to interfere with them and, in many cases, eat overripe fruit . They may also turn tipsy. The advent of colder temperatures and frost kills males and workers, leaving only queens with fertilized eggs remaining in hibernation, allowing them to establish an entirely brand new colony (nest) next year. If a nest dies during the fall, the queen never returns to it the following year. The queen will always build with a new nest in the next season.
