Welcome back to the Pest Pulse Podcast, presented by Bug Busters, where we break down the pests you're seeing around your home, why they're showing up, and what you can do to help protect your property.
Today, we're talking about a pest that can turn an ordinary afternoon in the backyard into a pretty stressful situation.
You're mowing the lawn.
Cleaning up the yard.
Taking the trash out.
Maybe the kids are playing outside.
Then suddenly you hear it.
A yellow jacket.
Or maybe several of them.
And around this time of year, you might be thinking:
"Why are there so many yellow jackets all of a sudden?"
"Why do the wasps around my house seem more defensive?"
And maybe the biggest question:
"Why didn't I notice this nest earlier in the summer?"
Those are great questions because late summer into early fall is an important time for social wasps, particularly yellow jackets.
Their colonies have spent months growing. By late summer, many are approaching their largest population of the entire year. At the same time, their food preferences and colony behavior are changing.
