Know Your Enemy: Common Stinging Insects in Fayetteville

Effectively managing stinging insects starts with proper identification, as different species require different removal strategies. In our region, homeowners frequently encounter a variety of pests that range from mild nuisances to aggressive defenders. Understanding what you are up against is the first step toward a safe solution.

• Yellow Jackets: Perhaps the most aggressive stinging insect in our area, they often build nests underground or in wall voids. They are highly territorial and can sting repeatedly, posing a danger during lawn care or outdoor play.
• Paper Wasps: identifiable by their umbrella-shaped nests hanging from eaves, porches, and door frames. While generally less aggressive than yellow jackets, they will sting if they feel their nest is threatened, and their presence near entryways is a common hazard.
• Bald-Faced Hornets: Actually a type of wasp, these pests build large, enclosed paper nests in trees or on the side of buildings. They are extremely protective of their colony and will attack in force if disturbed, delivering painful stings.
• Carpenter Bees: These solitary bees look like bumblebees but have shiny, black abdomens. While they rarely sting, they cause significant structural damage by boring perfectly round holes into untreated wood on decks, siding, and fences to lay their eggs.
• Mud Daubers: Solitary wasps that build tube-like mud nests on walls. They are generally not aggressive, but can be unsightly, and their abandoned nests often become shelters for other pests.
