Yellow jackets can be serious outdoor pests during late summer and fall in many areas. By early fall these pesky critters seem to be everywhere, especially if there’s exposed food around. These wasps (yes, wasps, not bees) get more aggressive and dangerous later in the summer as well. The best approach is to avoid contact whenever possible. Be particularly cautious about disturbing nests late in the summer as they are fiercely defended.
If it becomes necessary to eliminate a nest, call Vaughn Pest Control for more information.
