Wasps pose significant health risks due to their stings, which can cause immediate pain, redness, and swelling. Some individuals may experience allergic reactions, including itching, hives, and swelling beyond the sting site. In rare cases, wasp stings can induce anaphylaxis, a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction characterized by difficulty breathing, throat and tongue swelling, rapid heartbeat, and a drop in blood pressure. In offices, infestations can disrupt operations, damage client perceptions, and increase maintenance costs.
Proper wasp management is crucial to mitigate these risks. Professional pest control experts conduct regular inspections to detect nests early, preventing large infestations and reducing sting risks. They use specialized equipment and protective gear for safe nest removal, ensuring the safety of all involved.
