[Leonida Bird]

Wasps are not friends. However, if you see one, they probably are not dangerous to your home. It is easy to get rid of wasps. Check for nests around windows and door frames. In some cases, wasps will enter your home through holes in the screen. You should also inspect your home's walls for nests, as these are their favorite places to build a nest. Be careful when removing a nest.

Avoid contact with wasp stings if you are allergic. Try sealing cracks and holes in your home. You can also put some wasp-repellent plants around the porch to avoid their access. Plants like lemongrass, cloves and basil have strong smells, and these scents can attract wasps. Avoid lighting candles and sprays with strong scents. This is because these attract nectar-loving insects, which can sting people.

In addition to stinging you, wasps can cause severe harm. If disturbed, they will attack their nests and inject their venom into your bloodstream. Some people may be allergic to the stings of wasps. Others can experience a severe reaction. Getting stung by a wasp can cause anaphylactic shock, permanent skin damage, difficulty breathing, and nausea. If you find wasps in your house, call a pest control company immediately.
