Wasps

Wasps are highly territorial stinging insects that build paper nests on porches, roofs, attics, and trees. Unlike bees, wasps can sting multiple times and become aggressive when their nests are disturbed. They are most active in late summer and early fall, scavenging for protein and sugary foods. Paper wasps and hornets are the most common home-invading species, requiring professional removal for safety.
