Wasp FAQ for DeForest

What is the current wasp risk in DeForest?
Wasp risk in DeForest is high with a score of 68/100. Warm, dry weather drives peak wasp foraging activity.
Wasps in DeForest become most aggressive in late summer (August-September) when colonies are largest and natural food sources decline. They seek sugary human foods more aggressively.
DeForest commonly sees yellowjackets (ground and aerial nests), paper wasps (under eaves), and bald-faced hornets. Yellowjackets are the most aggressive near food sources.
