How We Handle Stinging Insects
Focused on Safety First—For You and Your Home
Stinging insects are unpredictable, especially when nests are disturbed. That’s why our process prioritizes safety and uses protective gear, specialized tools, and targeted treatments to handle nests the right way—without putting your family at risk.
Immediate Risk Reduction
The moment we arrive, we assess the nesting area, flight patterns, and species behavior to determine the safest way to neutralize the threat. Species we commonly treat in Montgomery include:
- Paper wasps
- Yellow jackets
- Bald-faced hornets
- Mud daubers
- Ground-nesting stinging insects
Each species requires a different removal strategy, and our technicians are trained to determine the correct approach instantly.
Customized Treatment for Each
Nest Type
Different nests call for different solutions:
Above-Ground Nests (Eaves, Soffits, Woodwork, Attics)
We use targeted treatments that knock down stinging insects quickly while minimizing chemical exposure to surrounding areas. In some cases, we remove the nest entirely once activity stops to discourage rebuilding.
Ground Nests
Yellow jackets commonly build underground nests that can be extremely aggressive. We use precise applications that penetrate the nest and eliminate the colony without risking unsafe excavation.
Tree & Bush Nests
For hornets or wasps nesting in trees or shrubs, we use a combination of distance tools and specialized treatments to avoid provoking swarms.
Hard-to-Reach Areas
Stinging insects often build nests high on second stories, in attic gables, or in hidden wall voids. We have the tools and products needed to safely access and treat these challenging locations.
Preventing Future Nesting
Once the immediate threat is gone, we help you prevent new nests by:
- Identifying structural conditions that attract stinging insects
- Suggesting repairs or sealing of small exterior gaps
- Reducing sheltered areas where wasps like to build new nests
- Offering ongoing seasonal protection during peak months
Montgomery’s climate allows stinging insects to remain active for long portions of the year—so prevention is key.
Our Stinging Insect Service Guarantee
If you’re on a recurring pest protection plan and stinging insects return to the same area between visits, we’ll come back and treat it again at no additional charge.
Your safety comes first. Every time.
