General Information on Wasps
Some species of wasps are well adapted to urban areas. Although they do not cause damage, wasps are often attracted to sweet substances such as fruits and juices. The female wasp can inflict painful bites. In case of allergy, these stings can even be fatal.
The queen looks for a place to build her nest after she is fertilized. Once she has built a sufficient number of hexagonal cells, she begins to lay her eggs. In 20 days, the adult wasps emerge. Although the lifespan of a wasp nest is no more than one season, it can contain 10,000 to 30,000 wasps.
Preparing for Wasp Treatment

- These is no need to leave your home. However, it is recommended not to approach the nest for 24 hours after treatment, and to stay away from the treated area.
