Stinging Pests
Stinging pests come in multiple forms. From bees to yellow jackets, hornets, and even scorpions, such pests may fly or simply travel along the ground.

The constant stinging pests is no laughing matter. Call Choice Pest Management today and let our friendly, courteous staff explain our services, answer your questions, and set up an appointment so our professionals can inspect, identify, and remove the stinging pest from your home or property.
What are Stinging Pests?
Stinging pests are identified mostly as insects or creatures that carry a stinger. They use that stinger mostly for self-defence, but confrontations in your home or business may mean getting stung regardless of their intention. For the most part, stinging pests consist of the following.
- Bees
- Hornets
- Scorpions
- Wasps
- Yellow Jackets
Once identified, it can be difficult to remove stinging pests from your home without putting you or other members of your family in danger of being stung again. You should consider calling a professional, reputable pest control company to handle the situation.
Removing Stinging Pests from Your Property
Getting rid of stinging pests requires a two-part approach that identifies the source of where such pests live and breed inside your property. And then removing them along with the entrance ways and breeding locations so they do not come back.
Identification: The type of stinging pests that are on your property is key to getting rid of them. Flying insects such as bees or wasps for example will have nests or hives where they lay their eggs. Scorpions are more solitary pests that may wander into your home, but they can also set up areas to breed as well in protected locations such as under the bed or between the walls.
Removal: Knowing what type of pest leads to the next step of their removal. Bees for example will follow their queen, so removing the queen and placing her into a portable hive will have the other bees follow. While scorpions may have to be removed directly. In any case, the removal process will be a tricky one as not getting stung is paramount.
Prevention: Now that you have gotten rid of the stinging pests, it’s time to prevent them from coming back. This normally means eliminating areas where hives or nests are located, sealing them off from entry so that such pests have no way to find a place to breed.
