It only takes a few axes to collapse in the open summer gathering. They are more aggressive than bees, especially when they feel threatened, and their sting is painful and worse than bees. Despite the important role of WASPS as pollinators and predators of insect pests, these are not the insects you want to hang around your home.

In order for your yard to do a non-flight zone for waste, it is important to understand what attracts them and where they like to build nests.

Carbohydrates

Food for anything sweet: nectars of flower plants, fruits and any food and drinks of people who put people in their reach. At the end of the summer, WASPS is increasingly looking for sweet food.

The fruit trees are near the harvest, and especially overwhelmed, fell the fruit are a big Wosome magnet.

Bright colors

The flowers that ensure a visit to nectar are usually yellow and white, and therefore any object, including clothes in these colors, attract them.

Sweet scents

All sweet smells – whether natural flowers or manames of smelled soaps and perfumes are attracted to the axis. Ess have a highly developed sense of smell and cooperation with sweet odors, just like bright colors, with food sources.

Curved spaces

Ess can begin a nest in any sheltered spaces where there is light, heat, hollow from elements and predator protection such as other insects, reptiles and mammals, reptiles and mammals.

Open water

The shirts are looking for water not only for drinking, but also use it for nesting and cooling nests. So you will see them hovering over any water source, like open swimming pools, ponds, tap, bird bath. They consume water on the spot or return it to the nest.

Unprocessed wood

The shirts use the pulp of the untreated forest to build a nest. They are attracted to dead wood like killed trees, complex firewood and run off decks in which the wood surface is exposed so that they can access the pulp.

Other insects

If you have infestations of insect pests in your backyard, it is likely to draw axes. And the social axes (paper axes and yellow strong) and solitary predominant poison insects draw insects with their protein larvae in the nest.

Adult larvaes do not feed insects, they spend only sweet liquid food, which makes the interaction to produce ears.

Common areas to find axes

Based on food for food or shelters, they are looking for, these are the places where they usually nest:

• Under eaves and roof overlay.
• Trees and shrubs.
• Open the compost bins and piles.
• External furniture and swing sets.
• Communal boxes.
• External grills that have not been used for a while.
• Dead hollow trees.
• Abandoned cemetery, under the rocks or records, or in other underground cavities (for petting axis).

How to get rid of the axis

The removal of the WSP nest is the most effective way to get rid of the axes, because it kills the entire colony.

For larger nests, use a commercial spray for a rash that can safely dispel from the distance (as far as the 20 feet). For small nests that just start for the form, you can make your own spray using a dishwashing liquid and water. Whatever the spray you use, ensure that you are spraying only at night when the rash of inactive.

WASP traps, either commercial or domestic trap, are gentle way to get rid of waste waste, although it does not eradicate the entire colony, so you may have to keep traps throughout the season. The traps were placed where the PHOP is to gather, but far from the nest WASP and the area of ​​human activity.

Keeping your yard purely makes it less attractive to the axis. Collect any faulty fruit or vegetables, such as peppers and tomatoes, save compost in a closed bucket and control characters before turning into infestations.

When should I call about pro

WASP nests that are very large or at locations that are difficult to reach, such as under Eame, require professional to remove safely. If you are allergic to bee streets, do not attempt to remove the nest of any size; Outsource to professional.
