As winter sets in, the activity of wasps and hornets decreases, giving relief to homeowners. During this season, the chances of encountering a live nest are low. Unlike the summer months when wasps are more active and can pose a challenge, the colder months bring a quieter period for these insects.
It is important to note that any nests found in winter will be lifeless and won't be reused. This knowledge provides an extra layer of assurance, making the winter season a peaceful time without the threat of live wasp nests. Please explore our resources to stay informed and take a proactive approach to address future wasp concerns.

Let's explore the behavior of wasps during the winter season, which typically lasts from November to March.
During these colder months, the wasp population experiences a period of rest. The queen wasps, who are critical for the survival of their colonies, hibernate during this time until the spring season arrives. The worker wasps and drones would have died off in the previous autumn.
Sometimes, if the winter weather is milder, some queen wasps may wake up from their hibernation and venture indoors, which could be a temporary problem. However, it's important to note that these awakened wasps are unlikely to survive without a source of food.
It's not uncommon to come across wasp nests during winter, but most of them are lifeless unless they are abnormally large. These nests have reached the end of their lifecycle and are inactive. They will never be reused, which means they pose no threat unless they obstruct something. Therefore, these dormant and permanently inactive nests don't require any action. Winter is a time when wasp colonies and their nests fade away, making room for the renewal of nature in spring.
