Common Wasp & Bee Problems We Solve
- Nests under eaves, soffits, porch ceilings, play sets, mailboxes, and fence posts
- Ground-nesting yellowjackets near walkways and lawn areas
- Carpenter bees boring into fascia, decks, pergolas, and rails
- Honey bees entering structures (live relocation coordination available when appropriate)
- Heavy foraging pressure around outdoor dining areas, trash, and recycling
What Our Wasp & Bee Service Includes
- Species ID & Risk Assessment – We identify wasps vs. bees and evaluate nest size, location, and activity to select the safest, most effective approach.
- Safe Nest Removal/Treatment – Targeted treatments and careful removal for paper wasps, yellowjackets, hornets, and carpenter bees; ladder-safe procedures and protective gear.
- Honey Bee Considerations – When feasible and upon request, we coordinate with local beekeeping partners for live relocation of honey bees. If relocation isn’t possible (e.g., inaccessible structure voids), we discuss responsible alternatives.
- Carpenter Bee Remediation – Targeted treatment of galleries plus sealing/painting recommendations to deter re-infestation.
- Prevention & Exclusion – Sealing gaps, tightening screens, correcting attractants (food waste, fallen fruit), and adjusting lighting to reduce insect prey that draws wasps.
Important: For safety, avoid DIY spraying or knocking down active nests—stings and ladder falls are common. Our technicians use protective equipment and controlled methods.
Our Step-by-Step Process
- Inspection & Plan
We map nest sites, flight paths, and conducive conditions (gaps, unsealed wood, food sources). You’ll receive a clear plan before any work begins. - Targeted Treatment & Removal
We perform precise applications and, when appropriate, remove nests to restore safety and curb appeal. - Sanitation & Exclusion
We address attractants, recommend sealing entry points, and advise on paint/stain schedules for raw wood targeted by carpenter bees. - Follow-Up & Monitoring
Some sites benefit from seasonal checks—especially high-traffic entries, pool areas, and structures with exposed wood.
