Hornets

Hornet & Yellow Jacket Nests

  • Paper nest in a tree, shrub or under eaves
  • Yellow jackets going in and out of the ground
  • Wasps coming out of a wall void

A nest where people walk is a real sting risk. Bee and wasp service comes as a one-time service or with a 30, 60 or 90-day warranty depending on the species.

Paper wasp nest
Paper wasps

Paper Wasps on Porches and Eaves

  • Umbrella-shaped nests under railings
  • Wasps around light fixtures
  • Nests in grills and mailboxes

Small nests grow fast through the summer. Treating early keeps doorways and decks usable.

Wood with holes where wood-nesting bees live
Carpenter bees

Carpenter Bees in Wood

  • Perfectly round holes in decks and fascia
  • Sawdust under the holes
  • Bees hovering around the eaves

Carpenter bees drill into unpainted wood and come back every year. Treatment plus sealing and painting the wood stops the cycle.

Wasps in the wall or coming inside

If wasps go in and out of a gap in the siding, or show up inside the house, the nest is probably in the wall. Don't plug the hole. Blocked yellow jackets can chew through drywall into the house. We treat the void, wait until activity stops, and then seal. See wasp and yellow jacket questions.

When it's urgent

A nest by the front door, a play area or a pool, or someone allergic at home needs attention right away. We answer 24/7 and can send a tech at any hour; arrival depends on your location. Anyone with trouble breathing or swelling of the face or throat after a sting needs 911 first. More on 24/7 emergency bee removal.

Wasp season in Lyndhurst

Nests start small in spring, grow all summer and are largest and most aggressive in late summer and early fall, when yellow jackets go after cookouts and trash cans. Small spring nests are the easiest to deal with, so if you see a queen building under the eaves in May, call early.

Simple ways to prevent it

πŸ‘€

Check early

Walk around the eaves, deck and shed every couple of weeks in spring, when nests are small.

πŸ”

Cover food outside

Yellow jackets go after sweet drinks and meat at cookouts. Keep lids on.

πŸ—‘οΈ

Close trash cans

Open trash and recycling draw yellow jackets in late summer.

πŸͺ΅

Paint bare wood

Painted or stained wood keeps carpenter bees from drilling in.
