Stinging insects like bees, wasps, and hornets are more than just a nuisance—they can be dangerous. Each year, more than 500,000 people in the U.S. visit the emergency room due to stings. These pests become especially active during the late summer and early fall, when their colonies are in full swing and foraging for food to sustain their queens through the winter.
While some stinging insects play a beneficial role in pollination, their presence near your home or business can pose serious risks—especially for individuals with allergies. Nests can be found in trees, under eaves, inside walls, or even underground, and disturbing them can provoke aggressive behavior.
