If you’ve noticed more wasps buzzing around your home or backyard lately, you’re not alone. Wasp activity tends to spike during late summer and early fall, especially in Utah’s dry climate. But why are they showing up now, and what can you do about it?
Why Are Wasps Becoming More Active?
Wasps are most aggressive and visible as summer ends. Their colonies are at their largest, and food becomes scarcer – driving them to seek out sugary drinks, ripe fruit, and anything sweet left outdoors. Warm weather and food sources like outdoor garbage, pet food, and flowering plants attract them in greater numbers.
Are They Building Nests Nearby?
More wasps usually means there’s a nest nearby. Common nesting spots include eaves, attics, gutters, sheds, and even underground burrows. If you see wasps flying in and out of a specific area repeatedly, there’s likely a nest and DIY removal can be dangerous.
Why You Shouldn’t Wait to Act
Wasps can become aggressive if disturbed, especially around their nest. For families with kids, pets, or anyone with allergies, wasp stings pose a serious risk. That’s why professional wasp removal is critical.
