What Should You Do With a Wasps Nest?

Depending on the size of the wasps nest, the best time to destroy it is in early spring. Wasps are not aggressive and will fly less often in the spring, so they can be easier to deal with.

If the nest is in a high place, such as a tree, it may be possible to smoke it out. However, if the nest is in the ground, it will need to be buried.

Wasp nests can be found in many places around the home, such as on the roof eaves, in tree branches, and in wall cavities. They are also found in brass instruments. If you suspect that you have a wasp nest, it’s a good idea to consult a professional.

If you decide to destroy the nest, wear gloves, long pants, and a kerchief over your hair. Wearing protective gear will protect you from a wasp sting and prevent you from having to go to the hospital.

If the nest is on the ground, make sure you use a strong boot to stomp on it. You can also use a long handled scraper or broom to knock it down.

Wasps will sting you if they feel threatened. If you are allergic to wasp stings, you should wear protective clothing and an emergency kit. You can treat your allergic reaction with calamine lotion or hydrocortisone cream. You should also wear an EpiPen in case of a severe allergic reaction.

If you are unsure of the type of wasp nest you have, look at it and find out. Wasps are members of the Hymenoptera family, which means “membrane wings.” You should also use protective clothing and a head net to avoid getting stung.
