In these warmer days of spring, a queen wasp emerges from its winter hibernation. The number one priority is to find suitable locations to build new nest, likely near the location that she was born. The new queen lays both queen eggs and drone eggs and by the end of the wasp season she will have laid as many as 1,000 new queens for the next year. She makes a small nest to begin her new colony until new workers take over foraging and taking care of her. She must search for food to feed her first worker larvae. If you notice an enormous numbers of wasps near your home or garden then it is likely that there is a nest nearby. A wasp nest in summer/autumn can contain many thousands of wasps. Wasps “generally” do not attack or sting unless they feel threatened, harmed or you are close to their nest. When they do attack, wasps and hornets are aggressive and will sting repeatedly. Wasps’ behaviour will change in late summer as their need for more protein increases, therefore this is when you are more likely encounter them. It is important to treat a wasp nest as soon as you see the new nest. Removing a wasp nest is a multifaceted procedure and necessitates professional help.
