Stinging Pests

Pest of the Month - June

Stinging Insects

Stinging insects like bees and hornets send more than 500,000 people to the emergency room each year. These pests are especially active during the second half of summer and early fall when the colonies forage for food that will sustain their queens during the winter.

If you find a stinging insect nest on your property, contact a pest professional promptly. They will be able to inspect your home, confirm the type of stinging insect and recommend a course of pest control treatment.

New for 2021, MSPCA will highlight a pest each month on marylandpest.org, in the e-newsletter Closer Look, and in MSPCA’s social media channels. Includes recognition as a sponsor with your company logo linked to your website.

Each pest of the month is archived on the website for the full year!
