Wasps, Hornets & Yellow Jackets – What Makes Them a Problem?
These insects fly aggressively, defend their nests fiercely, and can sting repeatedly. Some species even swarm when threatened. Their nests often form in walls, attics, trees, porches, sheds, and even underground.
Identifying the right species is crucial. Each insect type requires a different treatment method, which is why partnering with Paladin Pest Control is a smart move.
Types of Stinging Insects We Handle
Wasps
Wasps build papery nests in trees, sheds, under porches, or wall voids. They become aggressive quickly and may sting multiple times.
Hornets
Hornets create large, football-shaped nests. Their sting is extremely painful, and they are known for defending their colony aggressively.
Yellow Jackets
These insects are attracted to food, sweets, grills, and trash bins. They make nests underground or inside structures and are responsible for the majority of stings in Colorado.
