Your Tulsa exterminators are experts when it comes to dealing with wasps or any other stinging insects. Wasps can get into the yard and your home and create a problem if they get too close to you and your loved ones. These insects are mostly harmless and a great asset to our ecosystem. But once they start creating their nest close to our home or wherever we spend a lot of time, they become a threat. So in this article, let’s take a good look at wasps, their life cycle, and what you and your Tulsa exterminator can do to stop these insects from nesting anywhere near you and your loved ones.
The Life Cycle of a Wasp
A wasp undergoes complete metamorphosis to develop into a full-grown adult. They come in two types: solitary wasps and social wasps. Once the male and female have mated, the female will begin to look for whatever materials necessary to build her nest. If she’s a solitary wasp, she will build a nest with one cell. A cell is a small room in her nest that houses an egg and the food necessary for that egg to develop. The social wasp will have multiple cells in her nest.
The female will build herself and then search for food to fill the cell with. This usually comprises some sort of protein, such as spiders or grubs, that she will paralyze with the venom from her stinger. Then she’ll place the paralyzed insects in the cell. She will put an egg on top of it, and seal the cell off. The egg will hatch, and the larva will begin to feed upon the paralyzed insects. Once it’s had its fill, it will undergo pupation. Then it will break through the top of the cell as a full-grown adult. Contact your Tulsa exterminator for more information.

A stray wasp or two flying through your yard is not a problem. These insects will simply fly through, maybe look for some nectar or some spiders or other insects to feed themselves or their young. They then go about their business . They’re not interested in taking on a large human being and probably losing that fight. But their nests are something that they will definitely defend. So if one has built a nest close to your home or somewhere near your living space, such as a porch or a swing set, then it’s time to call a Tulsa exterminator to get rid of these insects for good.
