Having wasps living in your yard means that every day you will be living with the threat of getting stung. Unlike bees, wasps can sting you multiple times. Their stingers do not fall off so they can and will sting you as much as they want. Wasp stings are painful. However, if anyone in your family suffers from allergies to wasp stings, then those stings can become life threatening. Have you ever wondered if there are plants that repel wasps which you can incorporate into your landscape? Here at Pointe Pest Control, we want you to have the information you need to keep your family safe from wasps. We work with you to provide residential pest control. If you are battling a wasp infestation, then we want to provide assistance.
The Plants
First off, there aren’t very many plants that repel wasps. Wormwood is one of the plants that wasps do not like. Wormwood has silvery green leaves and has a pale yellow flower and is easy to incorporate into any flower bed. Wormwood prefers dry soil and will need to be fertilized because it uses a lot of nitrogen. Other plants that might add a bit of wasp repellent include citronella, eucalyptus, and most plants from the mint family. These plants produce a lot of aromatics which are unpleasant for wasps as well as other insects. If you plant mint, you will get the added bonus of adding a bit of minty smell to your yard. Citronella is great because it helps reduce the number of mosquitoes too. Using these might add a bit of protection by making your yard less enjoyable for wasps.
