Common Stinging Pests in Southeast Texas

The Houston area's climate allows a variety of stinging insects to thrive, each with its own unique behaviors and nesting habits. Correctly identifying the pest is the first step in creating an effective control plan. Our experienced technicians are trained to identify and manage all common local threats.

Some of the stinging pests we frequently encounter include:

• Paper Wasps: These common pests build distinctive open-comb, umbrella-shaped nests in sheltered areas like eaves, porch ceilings, and attic rafters. They can be aggressive if their nest is disturbed.
• Hornets: Bald-faced hornets, which are technically a type of wasp, build large, enclosed paper nests in trees, shrubs, or on the sides of buildings. They are highly protective of their colony.
• Yellow Jackets: Known for their extreme aggression, yellow jackets often build nests underground in old rodent burrows or in wall voids, making them particularly dangerous and difficult to control.
• Carpenter Bees: These large bees look like bumblebees but have a smooth, black abdomen. They do not build nests but tunnel into exposed wood like decks, fascia boards, and railings, causing structural damage over time.

Our team has the expertise to handle these and other stinging pests common to our region.

The Importance of Professional Wasp and Bee Control

When you discover a wasp or hornet nest, your first instinct may be to grab a can of bug spray. However, this is one of the most dangerous DIY pest control tasks a homeowner can attempt. Stinging insects are highly defensive and will attack in swarms if they feel their nest is threatened.

A single nest can house hundreds or even thousands of insects, and each one can sting multiple times. Attempting removal without proper protective gear and equipment can lead to a swarm attack, resulting in dozens of painful stings that can cause a life-threatening allergic reaction in some individuals.

A licensed and insured pest control professional is equipped with the right gear, materials, and training to handle the job safely. They can eliminate the entire colony at its source, a feat that is nearly impossible with store-bought products, ensuring the problem is solved completely.
