Why Wasps Are a Concern in Brookhaven
Brookhaven’s warm climate and suburban landscapes offer perfect conditions for wasp activity. Paper wasps, yellow jackets, and hornets frequently build nests along rooflines, decks, and play structures, or even underground. Because wasps are territorial, they will aggressively defend their nests, posing a serious risk to residents and pets.
