EXPLANATION

Wasps are particularly attracted to sweets. Leaving sugary foods outside or forgetting a sweetened drink can quickly draw them in. To prevent this, store food indoors or under airtight covers. Also, set up wasp traps in sensitive areas. It’s important to regularly inspect eaves and sheds for wasp nests before they grow. If a nest is already established, it’s safest to call a professional to remove it, as wasps can become aggressive if they feel threatened.
