- Stay Calm: It’s important not to panic. Wasps are more likely to sting if they feel threatened. Keeping a calm demeanor helps prevent them from becoming aggressive.
- Keep a Safe Distance: Once you’ve spotted a nest, maintain a safe distance. This isn’t just to avoid stings; it’s also to give yourself space to plan your next steps carefully.
- Do Not Disturb: Resist the urge to knock down or disturb the nest. Disturbing the nest can provoke the wasps and lead to a swarm, making the situation more dangerous.
- Call Professionals: The safest way to handle a wasp nest is by calling pest control professionals. They have the right equipment and experience to safely remove the nest without causing harm to you or the wasps.
- Prevent Future Guests: After the nest is removed, it’s a good idea to check for any other potential entry points in your home and seal them. Regular checks in less frequented parts of your home can prevent future surprises.
