Wasps are a problem that you and your Broken Arrow exterminator can work together to eliminate. These stinging insects are summertime problems that can make their way on your porch or into your play areas for your children. Well, they are important pollinators for our ecosystem. They can become pests if they get too close to our families and pose a threat. The stinging insects can cause painful stings and inflammation. Sometimes, this can be a dangerous threat if someone has an allergy to their sting. So in this article, let’s take a good hard look at wasps, their life cycle and what you and your Broken Arrow Exterminator can do to keep them away from you and your loved ones.
The Wasps Sting
The sting of a wasp is created from a cocktail of neurotoxins. These neurotoxins are designed to paralyze insects that the female wasp will use as prey to feed her young. It can also be used in self-defense. If injected into your skin, the wasps sting first of all has no barbs. This means that it can sting multiple times and does not die off after one sting much like the honey bee. The injection of neurotoxins under your skin will feel like fire on your skin. It’s painful and very uncomfortable. Small children can be traumatized by being stung at a young age. If you have an allergy to a sting, it’s important that you get in contact with a medical professional as soon as possible in order to protect yourself from anaphylactic shock. Contact your Broken Arrow Exterminator for help with wasps and their stings.
Controlling Wasps by Broken Arrow Exterminator
While wasps will use other insects as food for their young, they will also feed upon nectar as an adult. The young wasp needs protein in order to develop the structures it requires to grow into a full-grown adult. The adult wasp needs far less protein and much more carbohydrates in order to have the energy necessary to do all the tasks it will need to do to reproduce. That means that the adult wasp will feed upon nectar in order to give it that energy. As it does this, it will pollinate many different trees and plants. Because of this, it’s important that we don’t just wipe out wasps even when they’re just flying through our yard.
It’s when they create nests close to their young ones or anywhere else where they’re in a position to become pests to us. This is when we need to eliminate these nests and contact your Broken Arrow Exterminator for help doing this. Check out our reviews!
