Technician wearing orange gloves holds a removed paper wasp brood comb with capped pupae by an exterior brick wall in McKinney, Texas.

Paper wasp brood comb removed from an exterior wall near utility boxes during a service in McKinney, Texas in September 2025. Active wasp colonies with developing brood can cause painful stings for residents and anyone working around meters or cables. Professional removal and targeted treatment help prevent re-nesting around the home.
