Common Misconceptions
“All wasps are aggressive — Paper wasps are defensive but will sting when threatened near their nest.”
“Paper wasps don’t return once removed — they often rebuild in the same location without deterrents.”
“A knocked-down nest means it’s gone — if the queen survives, the colony will rebuild quickly.”
