Wasp & Hornet Removal
Wasp and hornet nests are one of the few pest problems where a DIY attempt can genuinely land you in the hospital. We remove them safely and treat the nest itself.
Signs of a wasp or hornet nest
- A steady stream of wasps flying in and out of one spot on siding, trim or the ground
- Paper nests under eaves, decks and soffits or inside sheds
- Buzzing or chewing sounds inside a wall, where yellowjackets often nest
- Aggressive yellowjackets around trash, drinks and food in late summer
How we handle it
- 01
Identify
Honeybees are worth protecting; yellowjackets at a picnic are not. We identify what you have first.
- 02
Right gear, right time
Our technicians use proper protective equipment and treat at the right time of day.
- 03
Treat the nest
We treat the nest itself rather than the insects flying around it, including nests hidden in wall voids.
- 04
Find the gaps
Yellowjackets get into walls through small gaps around siding, trim and window frames. We show you where.
Good to know
- Yellowjacket colonies grow all summer, which is why they turn aggressive in late summer and early fall.
- Don’t spray or block a nest yourself. Disturbing it can set off a defensive swarm.
