Wasps and Wasp control Sydney

Wasp and wasp control Sydney. A homeowners guide to wasps and wasp control in Sydney Australia by Micropest pest control. Many wasps are capable of inflicting a sting which may be milder or greater severity than a bee sting. However the frequency of such stinging is far less than for bees, especially from more venomous species. Some wasps are solitary but there are communal species and multiple stingings can occur with ease. Some species habitually use the same nest from year to year and these may be on shrubs in the garden or even attached to the exterior of houses. This of course increases the likelihood of stinging incidents. The social paper nest wasps are the most common cause of wasp stings. These are usually mild, but possibility of multiple wasps stinging is high and occasionally and of a anaphylactic responses occur. In recent years another communal wasp, the European wasp, has become established in New South Wales, and although no major attacks on humans have been recorded, this wasp is known to have a very painful sting and it may sting several times in an attack.

There is no essential difference between the stings of bees and wasps and in the main, but to a lesser degree, all that has been said about bees applies to wasps as well.

Control of wasps and nest removal requires professional assistance, but applications to control wasps are generally best done at night when the wasps are less active. The use of synthetic pyrethrum dust is effective in most instances, but preferably the nest should be also removed and destroyed by burning.
