Why Wasps & Hornets Are a Serious Problem

Wasps and hornets are highly territorial and can become aggressive when their nests are disturbed. Unlike bees, they can sting multiple times and often attack in groups.

Common risks include:

  • Painful, repeated stings
  • Allergic reactions (can be severe)
  • Aggressive swarming behavior
  • Nests near entryways, decks, and play areas


In New England, activity peaks in late summer and early fall, when colonies are largest.mon risks include:
