Wasps
What are Wasps?
Wasps are little insects that share characteristics with both bees and ants, however many people mistake them for bees. Wasps vary from bees in that their bodies are narrower and less fuzzy. Their heads resemble those of ants, but wasps have wings. Wasps range in size from 0.5 to nearly 2 inches in length, depending on whether they are workers or queens.
Types of Wasps
There are approximately 103,000 species of wasps in the world.
Risks Associated with Wasps
Painful Stings
When wasps, yellow jackets, bees, and hornets feel threatened, they’re known to sting. The stings are painful and may cause a mild or severe reaction.
Property Damage
Non-stinging carpenter bees will excavate tunnels to use as nests. They make themselves at home in decks, siding, porches,
and eaves
Allergic Reactions
Depending on the person and their allergies, they may develop mild to deadly allergic reactions to stinging insects after being stung.
Swarms
When stinging pests swarm, the result is a mass of flying pests that are ready to protect their home at all costs.
