Understand The Danger Of Wasps: Reasons To Schedule Wasp Pest Control Services
Wasps may decide to make a nest on your property, but they don’t have a concept of sharing their space — making them horrible roommates. Wasps are territorial creatures, and if you get near their nest, they may attack. Wasps can sting multiple times, and these stings can be quite painful for the recipient.
It’s worth noting that when a wasp stings, it releases a venom containing a pheromone that triggers aggression in nearby wasps. This is why it’s important to vacate the area if a wasp has stung near their nest.
A wasp infestation can make you feel like you have to sneak around on your own property. Luckily, our team is here to help! At Apple Pest Control, we can evict these insects and help you reclaim your home. Get in touch with our team to schedule your service.

Do Wasps Provide Any Benefits?
Wasps offer a form of pest control, helping to eliminate creatures like cicadas or spiders. They also help with pollination. For instance, fig wasps work to pollinate close to a thousand different kinds of fig trees.
While these can be great benefits for the environment, that’s no reason to keep these insects in your yard. Wasps can become a major nuisance and deliver painful stings. Save yourself from the trouble they cause and get in touch with our team to rid them from your home.
What Wasps Are In San Antonio?
There are many different kinds of wasp species that exist, and the kind of wasp on your property can influence what it looks like and how it behaves. At Apple Pest Control, we’re familiar with the various wasps our region faces, allowing us to treat the problem effectively. Below are some of the wasp species we encounter in San Antonio:

No matter what wasps you’re dealing with, we’re a team you can trust to provide effective pest control for your home.
Watch Out For Wasp Season: When Are They Most Likely To Sting?
Wasps are most likely to present a problem during the summer as temperatures peak — though you may also notice them throughout the spring and fall. These creatures aren’t designed to handle cold weather, meaning many will die once winter arrives. Those who live will spend the season hibernating, so you won’t have to deal with wasps or their stings during this time.
Wasps will be back again as the weather warms up though, so make sure you know what to do if you notice a nest on your property. Trust Apple Pest Control to address the problem quickly, removing the threat from your home and eliminating the risk they pose to your family.
What To Do When You’re Stung By A Wasp
While painful, most wasp stings won’t require medical attention if you’re not allergic. Instead, after cleaning the site of the sting, you can use an ice pack to help relieve discomfort. This should be done in 10-minute intervals, switching between using and removing the pack. Do this for 30 to 60 minutes.
If you are stung and experience problems such as extreme swelling, nausea, lightheadedness or more, seek medical attention immediately. A medical professional will be able to assess your situation and provide the care you need.

Wasp Removal Reviews
“A colony of yellow jackets invaded our wooden deck and made it impossible for us to enjoy our backyard. George from Apple came, exactly when we expected him, and blasted them with insecticide. He took up some of the deck boards, removed the nests, and treated the area further to assure that they were completely gone. We have always been pleased with the service we’ve received from Apple Pest Control, and especially from George. They stand by their work, and we highly recommend them. Five Stars!”

“I had thought of putting a fence around the area instead of killing the yellow jackets but, when Aaron educated me on the yellow jackets behavior pattern, I agreed to have the nest eradicated for the safety of my dogs and my neighbor’s dog. The treatment proved effective. To my pleasant surprise, Aaron gave me a follow-up call on Monday. Everything went well. Highly recommend their service.”
