Hornets
Hornets are a type of large wasp and are known for their aggressive nature, particularly when defending their nest. They are capable of stinging multiple times, and their stings are especially painful. For individuals with allergies, hornet stings can lead to serious medical emergencies.
Although hornets play a role in controlling pest populations by feeding on insects, their nests located near homes, schools, or workplaces pose a significant safety concern and should be dealt with by professionals.
Hornet (Vespa spp.)
Hornets are larger wasps that can be more aggressive than other species. They build large, aerial nests in trees or shrubs. While they play a role in controlling pest populations, their stings can be painful, making it important to keep a safe distance from their nests.
Hornets are large, highly territorial wasps that can become aggressive when their nest is disturbed. Their stings are extremely painful and, unlike bees, hornets can sting multiple times. For individuals with allergies, a sting may trigger a severe reaction requiring urgent medical attention. While hornets do help control insect populations, their presence near residential or commercial areas poses a significant risk to safety. If a hornet nest is spotted, it is essential to keep your distance and contact a professional pest control service for safe removal.
If you spot a hornet nest,
Do not attempt to approach, disturb, or remove it yourself. Hornets are highly defensive and may become aggressive if they feel their colony is threatened. Their stings are painful and can be dangerous, especially for those with allergies. It is best to keep a safe distance and contact a professional pest control service to handle the situation safely and effectively. Prompt action is essential to minimise the risk to you and those around you.
