Frequently Asked Questions
Can I knock down a wasp nest myself?
We strongly advise against DIY wasp nest removal. Disturbing a nest can trigger a mass attack from hundreds of wasps simultaneously. Yellow jackets and bald-faced hornets are particularly aggressive when their nest is threatened.
When is the best time to remove a wasp nest?
Professional technicians can safely remove nests year-round. Nests are smallest and colonies least aggressive in spring. By late summer, colonies are at peak population and very defensive. Don't wait — call us as soon as you notice a nest.
What's the difference between wasps and bees?
Wasps (yellow jackets, hornets, paper wasps) have smooth, shiny bodies and can sting multiple times. Honeybees have hairy, rounder bodies and can only sting once. Bumblebees are large and fuzzy and rarely aggressive. Treatment approaches differ.
How long does wasp treatment take?
Treatment is typically completed in one visit of 30-60 minutes. We return 24-48 hours later to confirm the colony is eliminated before physically removing the nest. Ground nests may require additional follow-up.
What if wasps are inside my walls?
Wall void nests require specialized treatment using pressurized dust injection. We never recommend sealing entry points before treatment, as this can drive wasps into the interior of your home. Our technicians handle this safely.
