## Resource

Wasps are buzzing out of control this summer, turning backyard strolls into risky ventures and overwhelming pest control services with tripled call volumes. Residents in Sacramento are even avoiding dog walks until dusk to dodge swarms, while hardware stores report empty shelves as demand for wasp sprays surges. Experts blame record-breaking heat for the explosion, with wasps nesting in unexpected places like roof vents and becoming dangerously aggressive. While DIY nest removal is tempting, pros warn it’s risky—stay safe, avoid overwatering your lawn, and call in the experts when it’s too hot to handle.
