Identifying Wasps

There are many different varieties of wasps that range in size and color. Most have a pinched waist with two pairs of wings. Wasps do not go out of their way to attack, but they will sting if they feel threatened or are disturbed.

Some of the different types of wasps commonly found in the Bay Area include: 

While not all wasps are aggressive, they can all sting. Wasp stings are typically very painful and, because wasps can sting multiple times, people who are stung once are at risk of suffering multiple stings. 

Identifying Hornets

Hornets are a particularly aggressive type of wasp. While all hornets are wasps, they do have some distinguishing features that set them apart from other types of wasps, such as yellowjackets.  

Some hornet-specific identifiers include: 

• Length: Hornets are larger than other types of wasps. They are typically 1-1.5 inches long and have two pairs of wings and six legs.
• Color: Hornet coloring depends on their particular species. Some are black and white while others are black and yellow, black and gold, or black and red-brown. 
• Behavior: Hornets typically build large nests that are shaped either like cones or eggs. They are also more aggressive and solitary than other types of wasps. 

Because hornets are so aggressive, it’s best to call a professional for hornet control at the first sign of a hornet problem. At We Care Pest Solutions, we provide safe, effective, and long-lasting solutions for wasp and hornet infestations of all sizes.
