Protect Your Home From Stinging Pests
Stinging insects, with their painful stings and aggressive behavior, can pose a threat to your family and pets, especially for those who are allergic. If you’ve noticed an influx of stinging insects around your home or property, it’s crucial to address the issue promptly to ensure the safety and comfort of your household. At Zone, we specialize in comprehensive stinging insect control services designed to effectively eliminate these pests from your property.
Georgia’s Stinging Insects
From the Red Paper Wasp to the European Hornet or tiny sweat bee, Georgia is home to a variety of stinging insects including different types of bees, wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets. These insects play important roles in pollination and pest control, but their presence near homes and businesses can be problematic. Stinging insects are most active during the warmer months and may build nests in or around structures, such as eaves, attics, and trees. They can become aggressive if their nests are disturbed, posing a risk of painful stings to humans and pets.
Which Stinging Insects Can Be Found in Georgia?
Some of the most common types of stinging insects found in Georgia include:
- Wasps: Wasps are known for their distinctive narrow waists and smooth bodies. They can be aggressive when defending their nests and may sting repeatedly.
- Hornets: Hornets are a type of wasp known for their large size and potent sting. Their nests are typically constructed from paper-like material and may be found in trees, shrubs, or on the sides of buildings. In 2023, some Georgians may believe they have the “Asian” or northern giant hornet on their property. However, that’s likely not true. If you find any unusual hornets on your property, they may be the yellow-legged hornet, a non-native species to Georgia and one that should be reported to the Georgia Department of Agriculture if found due to their danger to Georgia’s honey bee population.
- Yellow Jackets: Yellow jackets are a type of wasp known for their yellow and black markings. They are aggressive defenders of their nests and can deliver painful stings.
