Wasps may be nature’s original exterminators, playing an important role as pollinators and predators of pesky insects and spiders. But if they’re too close to home, they can also be a serious nuisance—or worse, a danger to those who are allergic. Each year, hundreds of people in the United States experience severe allergic reactions to wasp stings.

These social insects are known for their distinct umbrella-shaped nests, which they often build under eaves, porches, or windows, as well as in shrubs and other sheltered locations. The nests are made of a paper-like substance created from chewed wood fibers mixed with saliva. Paper wasps are generally non-aggressive but will defend their nests if threatened. They play a vital role in the ecosystem by preying on pests, making them beneficial for gardens and outdoor spaces.
Solitary by nature, mud daubers are fascinating wasps that construct their nests from moistened soil, carefully shaped according to species. Their nests can often be found in protected areas like attics or sheds. Adult mud daubers primarily feed on flower nectar, while their larvae feast on spiders that the mother hunts and provides as food. These wasps are usually not aggressive and are more focused on their nest-building than on defending it, making them an interesting addition to the local ecology.
