Are Stinging Insects Dangerous?
While a single bee buzzing around your garden flowers is usually harmless, a nest or colony on your property presents a genuine risk. The primary danger comes from their stings, which inject venom. For most people, a sting is a painful, localized event. However, for individuals with allergies, a single sting can trigger a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis.
Even for those who are not allergic, some species can be very aggressive when they feel their nest is threatened. Wasps, such as yellow jackets and hornets, can sting multiple times and will often attack in large numbers. An encounter with a disturbed colony can result in dozens or even hundreds of stings, which can be dangerous for anyone, especially children and older adults. Attempting to remove a nest without proper equipment and methods can easily provoke an attack, making professional assistance the safest option.
Bees & Our Local Environment
Bees are one of the most important insects for helping plants reproduce, grow, and thrive. As pollen collectors, they carry pollen from plant to plant, fertilizing seeds that allow new plants to sprout. However, despite their importance to our local ecosystem, their painful stings that include potential for severe allergic reactions, make them an intimidating presence. At Proterra Pest Control, our team at Proterra Pest Control takes bee protection and conservation seriously, offering removal and control solutions that protect bee populations while keeping your home safe. Using proper equipment and careful handling, we can help relocate hives and nests away from your property and over to areas where bees can benefit the environment around them.
If you have a beehive or colony forming on your property, reach out to us to learn more about our bee control solutions.

Signs of a Stinging Insect Infestation
Spending time outdoors during the warm seasons is a favorite pastime, but an unexpected surge in wasps, hornets, or yellow jackets can quickly interrupt that sense of calm. Recognizing the early signs of an infestation is key to addressing the problem before it grows.
If you've noticed any of the following, you may have a colony establishing itself on your property:
- Visible nests. You may find papery, cone-shaped nests hanging from eaves, branches, or porch ceilings. Some stinging insects also build mud nests on exterior walls or create hidden nests in the ground or within wall voids.
- Increased insect activity. Seeing a constant stream of stinging insects flying to and from a single point is a strong indicator of a nearby nest. You might notice this activity around rooflines, vents, or cracks in your foundation.
- Audible buzzing. If you can hear buzzing sounds from inside your walls, attic, or crawlspace, it likely means a colony has moved in. This situation requires immediate attention.
Noticing these signs can be unsettling, but you don't have to handle it alone. At Proterra Pest Control, we are committed to providing prompt and dependable solutions that put your family's well-being first. We offer same-day and emergency services and use safe products and methods for both kids and pets.
