At BeeMan Stan Bee Removal, we might be known for our humane bee removal services, but we are also trained in the removal of bees’ more aggressive cousins: wasps. From hornets to yellowjackets, we have the expertise needed to remove several types of wasps and their nests, and today, we are here to offer insights about wasp nest removal.
Here are just a few things everyone should know about wasp nest removal:
- Wasp Nests Can Be Found in Many Locations – Wasps are resourceful insects and can build a nest in a variety of locations and in a wide range of conditions, as long as they have somewhere dry, safe, and structurally sound to settle. Wasp nests are often found in trees, garages, sheds, and attics, beneath eaves and porches, and underground. If you know you have a wasp problem but haven’t yet found the nest, you can rest assured that we know where to look.
- Wasps Nests Are Dormant at Night – Wasp nest removal experts often take action at night because that is when most of the wasps have returned to the nest and are dormant. This makes it easier to remove more of the wasps and to get rid of their nest without risking attack.
- You Should Never Attempt Wasp Nest Removal Yourself – DIY wasp nest removal is extremely dangerous. Non-professionals have neither the training nor the equipment needed to remove a wasp nest safely. You could anger the wasps and get injured. Additionally, wasps exhibit complex social behaviors. They can remember human faces and release pheromones to “tell” the other wasps to defend the colony against you. Always hire a professional for wasp nest removal.
