Signs you may need wasp & hornet control
- Umbrella-shaped paper nests under eaves and railings
- Large gray football-shaped nests in trees and shrubs
- Steady wasp traffic around a gap in siding or soffit
What causes the problem
Queens start new nests every spring in sheltered spots. By late summer colonies are at their largest and most defensive.
Why professional treatment matters
Disturbing a nest without the right equipment invites multiple stings. Technicians treat nests with protective gear and products designed to reach the whole colony.
Our treatment approach
- Locate and identify the species
- Treat the nest and entry point
- Remove accessible nests
- Treat common nesting sites to discourage rebuilding
What to expect
Most homes are protected on our annual service agreement: an initial service, then four quarterly services starting 30 days later to break the egg cycle, with free reservice if pests return between visits.
Prevention tips
- Knock down small starter nests early in spring
- Seal gaps in soffits and siding
- Keep sweet drinks and food covered outdoors

Wasp & Hornet Control FAQs
Will a wasp nest come back?
Old nests are not reused, but new queens build nearby. Our agreements include treatment of common nesting sites and free reservice.
