Wasps can be a nuisance and even a danger around your home, especially during the warmer months of the year. In the Southwest in Tucson and the surrounding areas, we typically have a pretty wide stinging insect season for this reason. There are however a number of steps you can take to keep wasps from setting up their home around yours. Here are just a few quick tips to keep wasps away from your home.

Remove food sources: Wasps are attracted to sweet and sugary substances, so it is important to remove any potential food sources around your home. This may include sealing food in containers, cleaning up spills and crumbs, and keeping outdoor garbage cans tightly closed.

Seal entry points: Wasps can easily find their way into your home through small cracks and openings. To prevent this, seal any gaps around windows, doors, and other areas of your home with caulk or weatherstripping.

Trim vegetation: Wasps are attracted to areas with lots of foliage, so it is important to keep your yard well-trimmed. This may include trimming bushes and shrubs, removing dead trees or branches, and mowing the lawn regularly.

Cover outdoor trash cans: Wasps are attracted to garbage, so it is important to keep outdoor trash cans covered and sealed tightly. This can help reduce the likelihood of attracting wasps to your property.

Use wasp repellents: There are a number of commercial wasp repellents available, including sprays and traps. These products can be effective at keeping wasps away from your home, but it is important to follow the instructions carefully and use them safely.
