Wasps are common pests in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, especially during the warmer months. The most frequently encountered species include yellow jackets, paper wasps, and mud daubers. Wasps can be aggressive, particularly when they feel their nest is threatened, and their stings can be painful or even dangerous for those with allergies. Wasps build nests in a variety of places, including eaves, attics, trees, and even underground. If you’ve noticed wasps flying around your property or found a nest, it’s important to address the issue quickly to avoid the risk of stings and potential infestations.
