As the summer weather subsides, you may notice more wasps and hornets buzzing around. While these insects benefit ecosystems because they control insect populations, they can become aggressive when their food supply diminishes. Managing their nests can be dangerous, so the City of Vaughan is providing resources on what to do if you see a wasp or hornet nest on public or private property.
