Anaheim residents know that when spring comes and the flowers bloom, the wasps also increase their activity. The stinging insects that fit into the category of wasps can make some people very ill. People who are allergic to or fear wasps often stay secluded in their homes to avoid confrontations with these creatures.

Many wonder if they must hire professionals to help them with Anaheim pest control for wasps or if they can take care of the problem independently. A-1 Bonded Termite can tell you that attempting to take care of wasps in your home and yard without a professional could be a disaster.

What Are Wasps?

There needs to be some clarification about what a wasp is. There are several types of wasps, but there are two main categories. These are social wasps and solitary wasps.

Social wasps are flying insects that live in colonies similar to the territories of honey bees or ants. The colony has a queen wasp, and most insects in the colony are the nonreproductive daughters of the queen. They mainly gather food, build the nest, and take care of all of the offspring from the queen. Yellow jackets, bald-faced hornets, and paper wasps are all examples of social wasps.

Solitary wasps differ from social ones because all female solitary wasps can breed. Solitary wasps help control other insect pests like spiders. Still, they also feed on crickets, cicadas, and various caterpillars. A mud dauber wasp is one example of a solitary wasp.

Why You Don’t Want Wasps Hanging Around Your Home

Wasp prevention in Anaheim will help protect your family, pets, and property from these flying insects. All types of wasps in Anaheim can create problems. Still, stinging insects like yellow jackets are the ones that make you want to engage in wasp prevention and removal.

Why wasps are unwanted guests:

  • Some wasps can inflict painful stings.

  • Some people are allergic to wasp venom.

  • Wasps create tunnels that can disfigure lawns.

Many people injure themselves trying to run from a wasp because they do not recognize a mud wasp from a stinging wasp. Some people must get medical attention after encountering large nests of stinging insects and receiving numerous stings. Wasps are nuisances that only increase in numbers if you try to ignore their presence.

Factors That Attract Wasps To Your Yard

The best wasp control requires an integrated management plan involving you and a pest professional trained in identification, removal, and wasp prevention.

What do the wasps find to be attractive about your Anaheim property?

  • Cracks and crevices in your home siding make perfect wasp homes.

  • Cuts or tears in window screens give them an accessible entrance.

  • Uncovered food provides them with a free meal.

  • A lot of scented soaps and perfumes attract them.

Many of the plants that we find to be beautiful attract wasps and bees when they bloom. Also, spider infestations will attract solitary wasps as they are an easy food source.

Our professional technicians will inspect your home, identify the wasp species present, and show you where the insects can likely gain entry into your home.
