Q: Why are wasps so aggressive?

• <div><p>Wasps are aggressive to protect their nests. Although they are deemed aggressive, they only act that way when they feel their nests are threatened. They can also act aggressive when there is a lack of food available. Most wasps will leave you alone if you stay clear of their nests.</p></div>

Q: What scent will keep wasps away?

• <div><p>Wasps dislike a great many essential oils, such as clove, geranium, and lemongrass. Combine a few drops of each in a cup and place this cup outside to repel wasps from your immediate surroundings. </p></div>

Q: How do you tell if you have termites or ants?

• <div><p>Ant and termite infestations look very different. Since termites feed on wood, one of the warning signs of their presence is drooping drywall, peeling paint, loose floor tiles, and crumbling wood. On the other hand, ants feed on plant- and animal-based food options, so you&rsquo;ll likely spot a colony near your home&rsquo;s food sources. If you&rsquo;re unsure what type of pest infestation you have, hire a pest control specialist to inspect for you. </p></div>
