Wasp Control

Calling a professional to help you get rid of hornets, yellow jackets, or paper wasps is your best option, even if you’re comfortable removing them on your own. These stinging insects make nests in tricky spots like the ground, your home’s walls, and other hard-to-reach areas, plus getting rid of them depends on the time of the year.

1. WASP NEST INSPECTION

We’ll perform a thorough inspection of your property, checking for nests under eaves, in the ground, around bushes and trees, and more. Our goal is to locate all nests and identify the wasp species (hornet, yellow jacket, paper wasp, etc.) so we can get rid of these stinging insects for good.

2. KNOCKDOWN NESTS

We’ll use an aerosol spray to treat the wasp nest(s). We spray at night because (1) the wasps are far less aggressive, and (2) are all at home. After a majority of the wasps are dead or have flown away, we’ll remove the nest. This waiting period takes 24 hours on average.

3. KILL EMERGING WASPS

We’ll dust void areas with an insecticide to kill emerging wasps and discourage them from returning next season. This will continue to kill wasps for six months (or more) in areas where the dust is protected.

4. SPRAY FUTURE NESTING AREAS

We’ll spray the wasp infestation (and surrounding area) with a residual liquid insecticide. This treatment not only controls wasps but also prevents these stinging insects from constructing nests in the future.
