The most common stinging insects that you will deal with on your property in the Myrtle Beach area are Carpenter Bees, wasps like Yellow Jackets and Mud Daubers, and European Hornets.

Wasps, bees and hornets are known for the painful stings they can deliver when they feel as if their nest is threatened. Wasps and hornets can also swarm and sting you multiple times, which could result in a hospital visit, especially if you are allergic to their venom. The expert technicians at 365 Wildlife are equipped with professional grade equipment and insecticides to remove your stinging insect problem, as well as the knowledge to provide you with preventative measures to keep bees and wasps off your property in the future.
Carpenter Bee Control
Carpenter bees are one of the most destructive insect pests you could have. Carpenter bees are named for their tendency to build their nests inside wooden structures within your home.
Carpenter bees do not eat wood like termites, instead they hollow out galleries in which to build their nests and lay their eggs. Carpenter bees will reuse galleries over several generations, so newer galleries will be shallow, while galleries that have been around for several generations of carpenter bees will be deeper. Carpenter bees do possess the ability to sting, but they typically will not unless they are directly handled. The main danger that carpenter bees pose is the damage they can create to the wood in your home, as they are literally hollowing out the wood to build their galleries. Carpenter bees can also affect wooden decks and deck furniture, and even worse, carpenter bees can attract destructive woodpeckers, which will cause even further damage as they drill into the wood for carpenter bees to eat.
If you have carpenter bees affecting the wood in your home, contact the licensed pest control experts at 365 Wildlife and Pest Control. We offer the best in carpenter bee control and removal. While carpenter bees do not live together in massive nests like wasps or hornets, we can still eliminate their individual galleries and provide you with preventative solutions to keep them out in the future.
Wasp Pest Control
In the Myrtle Beach area of South Carolina, there are two main types of wasps that you will come across in your yard:
- Mud daubers
- Yellow jackets
Mud daubers are large wasps that are roughly 1 to 2 inches long, and they are instantly recognizable for their unique body type, as they have extremely slender legs and a very thin waist segment that connects their thorax and abdomen. They are known as mud daubers because they form their nests out of mud that they shape with their mandibles into cylindrical shapes, often hanging down from ceilings, awnings and overhangs. Mud daubers can range in color from yellow to black to even metallic blue.
Yellow jackets are one of the most infamous species of wasp. These insects are instantly recognizable for their distinctive black and yellow-striped body, and you will often spot these insects flying around cookouts or other outdoor events, looking for sweet sugary drinks to feed on. Yellow jackets will typically build their nests underneath the ground, however these wasps will often be seen building nests on the sides of houses or within trees. While it may seem tempting to dig up these wasp nests or remove them from the side of your house yourself, yellowjackets will become very aggressive when they are threatened, and they will not hesitate to sting you multiple times, which can be very painful. Always leave wasp nest extermination and removal to the experts at 365 Wildlife and Pest Control.
