Your Tulsa exterminator can help prevent your loved ones from getting stung by wasps in your home. Wasp stings are common, especially during summer when wasps come out of hibernation. These stings can be painful and in some cases cause allergic reactions. Typically, wasps sting because they perceive a threat. And unlike honey bees that die after stinging someone once, wasps can continue to sting. Wasp stings can be particularly dangerous because they can sting you multiple times. You can prevent stings by staying aware of wasps, avoiding wasp nests and hives, and keeping covered when outdoors. Nests and hives may be found under roof eaves. Contact your Tulsa exterminator for help with wasps.
Wasp Eggs
All female wasps possess an ovipositor located at the tip of their abdomen. This is what they use to deposit eggs inside a host insect. The female wasp doesn’t feed on dead insects but it kills them for her young ones. Their prey serves as food to the larva when they hatch from the wasp eggs. This is important to agriculture as it serves as a means of pest control because most of these wasps’ prey are pests attacking crops on the farm. Most eggs contain one larva but some species have more than one larva in one egg. Each egg is laid into a single cell in the nest. The nest is made up of tens of cells. Tulsa exterminator can assist you in removing wasp nests from your home.
Wasp Stings and Tulsa Exterminator
If you own a home, a restaurant, or a business, you should take wasp problems seriously. They can be a threat to your loved ones or customers at your business. Their activities can make them uncomfortable and they might request a refund or leave a bad review. You can also put in place measures to prevent them from invading your spaces. If there comes a situation where someone gets stung by these pests, look out for signs such as difficulty in breathing, dizziness, or swollen and reddish skin. Even if there is no allergic reaction, the sting is usually painful. They inject poisonous venom into the skin when they sting. After identifying the spot that was stung, wash it with soap and water.
Apply cold compression on the spot using an ice bag for about 10 minutes. Avoid scratching it or using any home remedies. Visit a pharmacy for creams that will stop the itching. Also, contact your Tulsa exterminator if you have these pests in your home or business premises. Check out our reviews!
