Some types prey on both beneficial insects and pests in your garden, so you really have to know if they are doing more good than bad. On the other hand, others may feed on your garden fruits and hijack honey from bee colonies, if they are not managed properly. Here are some things to consider if you think that wasps are causing trouble in your home.
Identify the problem. Wasps can be mistaken for bees, which are a lot more helpful when it comes to pollinating your garden. You should know how to differentiate a wasp from a bee to make sure that you are targeting the right pest, in case you decide to eliminate it. Wasps have narrower waists and longer legs than bees have and are likely to attack, if they get threatened or disturbed. It is essential to verify if these insects are truly a threat, since some can actually help you get rid of unwanted insects such as caterpillars and aphids. Wasp nests look like dried balls on walls, trees, beams, window frames and dried mud on the ground.
Hire an exterminator to do the job. An expert will know where to look and can easily distinguish wasps from other insects that people often confuse as wasps. Moreover, exterminators will know how to handle chemicals that are meant to control an abnormally large wasp population in your home.

However, if they are more of a problem than anything else, then it might be time to get rid of them using various means available. If the job is too much for you to handle, there are experts to help you keep your home free from wasps.
