The Annual Paper Wasp Invasion.
That does not sound too scary…does it? We know that a “paper tiger” is harmless, but
not so much a paper wasp. So, what is it
anyway? They are unsightly and WILL
sting, believe me! Their nests are found
in overhangs and sheds throughout Chicagoland.
They are so-named because these nests are made of a gray paper-like material.
Paper wasps are considered beneficial because they assist in
pollination and they control pest insect populations by feeding them to their
larvae. In spite of their ecological
benefits, paper wasp nests should not be permitted to develop in or near your home. Stings from paper wasps are extremely painful
and may produce serious reactions to people who are allergic to the venom.
Fight back against a paper wasp invasion of your
property. Call the pros at A Complete
Pest Solution. And, for more information
on the elimination of this and other summertime pests in our area visit

are at the ready to control the bee and wasp populations around your home. Call today at (630) 464-1542.

Beware the Bald Faced Hornet.
It even sounds scary doesn’t it? No one wants to get close enough to see its
face anyway, but know this…it is possibly the most dangerous of all wasp breeds
that annually invade Chicagoland. The
sting is exceptionally painful and in some of our Northern Illinois residents
it can be a very serious health hazard!
So, what do they look like?
They are black and white striped.
What about their nest? It looks
like a large, ominous teardrop. Where do
you find the nest? Look for it under the
eaves of your home or, perhaps hanging from a tree. It probably goes without saying but, for
heaven’s sake DO NOT approach the nest!
At the first sign of this dangerous winged adversary please
call us. We are A Complete Pest Solution
serving all of Chicagoland in the elimination of wasps and bees from your
property. Please visit
www.waspsolutions.net for more details on a variety of winged summer
invaders. Give us a call for fast,
guaranteed service at (630) 464-1542.

Say What? They Fly AND they Sting?
Yes they do! They are
the invaders that come to visit every summer…the ubiquitous wasp. They are one of the most widely feared
insects for a very good reason. Wasps
vary in aggressiveness and other behaviors, however, and only a few need to be
feared. Knowledge of their habits is the
first step in reducing the fear of them.
A person sensitive to one kind of wasp sting will often be
sensitive to other kinds of wasps. That
is not always true with bees. The first
thing you will notice (allergic or not) is local pain, swelling, redness and
itching in most Chicagoans. Some people
will suffer symptoms that can include difficulty in breathing, dizziness and
nausea.
All of this is no picnic for anyone in Chicagoland. That’s why we have Kurt and his wasp control
crew at www.waspsolutions.net. As the
name implies they have the solution to your wasp problem in the summer of 2018
and beyond. Do NOT get involved in this
sting! Call A Complete Pest Solution now
at (630) 464-1542.
