Common Pest Profiles
Baldfaced Hornet
The baldfaced hornets are best known for their large football-shaped paper nest, which they build in the spring. The nests can reach 3 feet tall. Hornets are protective of their nests and will sting if disturbed.
Paper Wasps
Paper wasps mix saliva with fibers from dead plants, to use for constructing nests. The nests look like gray paper and have open combs with cells. Paper Wasps generally only attack if the nest is threatened. They feed on nectar and other insects.
Yellow Jackets
Yellow Jackets have a yellow and black head/face and patterned abdomen. They can be found any place humans can be found. Check near recycling bins or other areas where sugar is common. They become more aggressive in autumn they begin to die out.
Cicada Killer Wasps
Although Cicada Killer Wasps rarely sting unless disturbed, homeowners may become alarmed because of their very large size (nearly two inches). They dig annoying holes in lawns, flower beds, gardens, and sandy areas. They appear in mid to late summer.
