FAQ
How can I identify a hornet nest on my property?
Hornet nests are typically constructed from paper-like material and can vary in size and shape. Look for large, grayish or brownish nests usually located in trees, shrubs, or on buildings. Hornets are most active during the day, so you may observe them flying in and out of the nest.
What should I do if I discover a hornet nest near my home?
It's essential to avoid disturbing a hornet nest, as hornets can become aggressive when threatened. Contact us to assess the situation and safely remove the nest if necessary. Attempting to remove a hornet nest without proper equipment and expertise can be dangerous.
Are hornet stings more dangerous than other insect stings?
Hornet stings can be more painful and potentially more dangerous than stings from other insects due to the larger size of hornets and their potent venom. Some individuals may experience severe allergic reactions to hornet stings, so it's crucial to seek medical attention if stung, especially if experiencing symptoms such as difficulty breathing or swelling.
Can I use DIY methods to get rid of hornets on my own?
While there are DIY methods for addressing hornet nests, such as using insecticidal sprays or dusts, attempting to remove a nest without proper training and equipment can be risky. Hornets can become aggressive when disturbed, leading to stings and potential injury.
How can I prevent hornets from nesting on my property in the future?
To prevent hornets from nesting on your property, seal any openings or gaps in buildings where hornets may gain access to nest sites. Keep outdoor areas clean and free of food and drink spills that may attract hornets. Regularly inspect your property for signs of hornet activity, such as nest building, and promptly address any issues to deter nesting.
