A stinging insect nest near a doorway, play area, or work zone is a safety issue, not a nuisance. Yellowjackets and hornets defend aggressively, sting repeatedly, and become far more volatile late in the season as colonies peak. Anyone in the household with a sting allergy turns an accidental disturbance into an emergency.
Identification comes first, because it determines the whole approach. Paper wasps build open combs under eaves and patio covers. Yellowjackets often nest in the ground or inside wall voids, where an unseen colony can be substantial. Honey bees are a different case entirely — a colony in a wall leaves behind comb and honey that will attract other pests and stain drywall if the cavity isn't opened and cleaned out. We treat and remove nests wearing full protective equipment, work at the hours when return traffic is lowest, and advise on relocation for honey bees wherever that's the appropriate call.
Do not attempt to knock down or spray a nest yourself — that is when most stings happen. Call, and we'll handle it, backed by the Empire Guarantee.
We identify the species and locate the nest, including colonies inside voids.
