Wasps & Bees
Why You Should Be Concerned
Wasps and bees can be a significant nuisance. Finding a wasp nest near your property requires immediate attention.
Signs You May Have a Problem
Seeing a large number of wasps or bees entering or leaving a specific point on your property, such as under eaves or in a shed, often indicates a nest. Finding the insects themselves is a sign.
Identifying the Pest
Distinguishing between wasps and bees can be important, as bees are beneficial pollinators. Identifying the specific type of insect and locating the nest can be difficult by phone or email, requiring an inspection. Nest inspection services are offered. Our technicians can identify the pest during a survey.
Dangers of Uncontrolled Infestations
Wasps and bees can sting, which is painful and can be dangerous, especially for individuals with allergies. An active wasp nest can pose an immediate threat. While generally less aggressive than wasps, bees can also sting if provoked. Uncontrolled insects can damage property and pose significant risks.
Treatment Options
DIY Methods:
DIY pest control methods exist for 'things that go buzz'. However, attempting DIY methods, especially for wasp nests, can be extremely dangerous and may only aggravate the insects, increasing the risk of stings. You may not be aware of the full extent of the problem or cannot get to the root cause. Without expert knowledge, experience, and professional-grade equipment, DIY attempts will likely be unsuccessful. This can place you in danger and potentially make the problem worse.
