WASP

The common wasp (Vespula vulgaris) typically nests either underground or in cavities in trees and in buildings. Wasps become a particular problem in late summer when the workers from a nest seek sweet foods, often focusing on kitchens and bakeries. Their threat is two-fold. Firstly, they can contaminate foodstuffs but, more alarmingly, their sting is at best painful and in certain instances, can cause anaphylactic shock which may lead to death. Hornets (Vespa crabro), tha largest of wasps are relatively less common and nest in buildings and hollow trees.
