Wasps are insects that are aggressive and territorial in nature and attack when someone tries to play with their nests. They build their nests in places where there is more crowd. They are a member of a group of insects in the order Hymenoptera.
Let’s look at some of the features of Wasps:
Size: They vary in size. They can be as small as 0.5 inches to as large as 1.5 inches.
Colour: Their colour also varies, from yellow to brown, metallic blue, and bright red.
Wings and antennae: Most wasps have two pairs of wings. They have biting mouthparts and antennae with 12 or 13 segments.
Habitats: Wasps build their nests anywhere, The preferred nesting spots for wasps are eaves, porch ceilings and overhangs. They usually choose a corner spot where their nest is more protected.
Placing wasp traps:
A trap for any insect or bee is usually created by placing something that attracts them. Sugar water can be placed inside a container which tempts the wasps to enter the container and prevents them from escaping. You can make these traps at home by cutting a plastic bottle or you can buy one online.
Sealing the cracks:
You must seal the tiny cracks and holes that appear near the window screens or those around the edges of the siding. This will stop the wasps from entering the house since those cracks are the main route through which they find a way in.
Seal the lids of dustbins:
Make sure to seal the lids of the dustbins because the garbage lying inside them can act as a treat for the wasps. There are lots of food sources in the form of exposed garbage and composting food matter for the wasps to feed on.
Apart from all the above-listed prevention measures, if the problem has arisen and you need to get rid of it, then you need to call the experts. We at Ontario Pest Control have the right means to help you get the stingy creatures out of your house.
Our Integrated Pest Management Approach goes like this:
Inspection: We look around the house and measure the amount of problem created by the wasps and search for the areas where they have created their nests. With this, we come up with a strong action plan.
We explain the problem to the people living in the house on how the wasps entered, what are they feeding on and what action we are planning to take.
Treatment: We start taking the necessary measures. We search for the areas the wasps could nest on and try to reduce the space where they can build the nest in and around the house. Through traps, light modification, mechanical controls or physical removal, we clear the wasps existing on your property.
Recommendation: Our technicians guide you in the ways you can prevent the wasps from entering again, the most effective being proper sanitation. We tell them the sources of wasps’ food and how they can clear those food sources and prevent the problem from repeating again.
