Wasp, Hornet and Yellowjacket Removal Done Right
Paper wasps, bald-faced hornets and yellowjackets all defend their nests and can sting repeatedly. Ground nests are often found by accident with the lawn mower.
We locate the nest, treat and remove it, and repair or seal the spot. We do it at the time of day when insects are calmest.
Humane methods, careful sealing and cleanup. Every job includes an inspection first.

Questions About Wasp, Hornet and Yellowjacket Removal
Still have a question?
Can I spray a nest myself?
It is risky. A nest disturbed at the wrong time can swarm. If anyone is allergic, call us.
Is a nest dangerous in winter?
Most colonies die in winter, but the nest should still be removed to keep new queens from using it.
