Hornets and yellow jackets we remove.
Hornets and yellow jackets sting more readily than most wasps and defend a nest in numbers. Getting close is where people get hurt. Our specialists identify the species and remove the nest safely. Tap the one you are dealing with to call.
Yellow jackets and hornets are quicker to sting than paper wasps, and one disturbance can bring out the colony. Many can sting more than once. For anyone with a sting allergy, that turns a nuisance into an emergency, which is why these nests are worth leaving to a specialist.
The nest often hides where it is hard to reach, whether that is inside a wall, in the ground, or up under the eaves. A specialist finds it, treats the colony at the source, and removes what can be safely reached.
For safe removal, call (888) 613-2481 for a no-obligation estimate. If you choose to go ahead, service can often be scheduled the same day.
How hornet and yellow jacket removal works.
These are the nests where the approach matters most. The specialist assigned to your home matches the method to the species, the nest location, and how active it is. Here is what a visit covers:
1. Identify the species and the nest
A grey papery nest the shape of a football usually means bald-faced hornets, while sudden activity from a hole in the lawn points to yellow jackets. The specialist confirms which it is and locates the nest before treating.
2. Treat the colony and remove the nest
The nest is treated with professional-grade products placed where the colony lives, then removed where it can be safely reached. Aggressive species call for extra care to keep everyone clear during treatment.
3. Check for return activity
The specialist treats likely nesting spots nearby and notes openings worth sealing, so a new colony is less likely to set up in the same place.
To get started, phone (888) 613-2481. There is no charge to speak with a specialist and no obligation to schedule service.
Why call us for hornets and yellow jackets.
Aggressive stinging insects are the wrong nest to test with a store-bought spray. When you call, you can expect:
✓
Safe removal of aggressive nests
Hornets and yellow jackets defend the nest in numbers and can sting more than once. Specialists use the right equipment and methods to remove the nest while lowering the risk of stings.
✓
Priority when someone has a sting allergy
Nests near a doorway, or in a home where someone reacts badly to stings, are treated as a priority. Mention it when you call and the appointment is booked as a priority.
✓
Same-day appointments when available
Most calls received before mid-afternoon can be scheduled for the same day. Evening and weekend appointments are routinely available.
✓
The colony treated at the source
Knocking down an aerial nest or spraying a ground hole rarely ends the colony. Treating where the nest lives is what stops the activity for good.

Frequently asked questions.
Does it matter whether it is a hornet or a yellow jacket?
It changes the approach. Yellow jackets often nest in the ground or a wall, bald-faced hornets build an aerial nest, and each is treated a little differently. The specialist confirms the species on site.
Call to talk through what you are seeing → There is a big grey nest shaped like a football. What is it?
That is the classic bald-faced hornet nest. It is best left alone, since these hornets defend it in numbers and can sting repeatedly. A specialist can remove it safely.
Call for a no-obligation estimate → Wasps are coming out of a hole in my lawn. Can you help?
Yes. Activity from a hole in the ground usually means yellow jackets, treated at the burrow entrance so the product reaches the nest below. Disturbing it yourself brings the colony out fast.
Call to check availability for your address → How much does hornet or yellow jacket removal cost?
Pricing depends on the species, the nest location, and how established it is. You get an estimate on the phone before anything is scheduled, at no cost.
Call for a no-obligation estimate → Do I have to book service if I call?
No. There is no obligation. Many callers use the estimate to weigh their options before deciding.
