Wasps: Nature’s Tiny Winged Bullies
Wasps aren’t just annoying — they’re aggressive, territorial, and unlike bees, they can sting over and over again. That’s right, no one-and-done here. If you get too close to their nest (even by accident), they’ll come after you like you insulted their queen.
They build nests in eaves, trees, wall voids, and even inside grills or playsets. Some are more chill (like paper wasps), but others — like yellow jackets — are downright mean. And they don’t even need much reason to go on attack mode.
Wasp stings hurt like crazy, can cause allergic reactions, and worst of all — they tend to show up just when you’re trying to enjoy a backyard BBQ. Coincidence? We think not…
Reasons For Wasp Invasions
Wasps aren’t just flying around for fun — they’re on the hunt for food, water, and good nesting spots. Here’s what draws them in:
Sweet stuff – Fruit trees, sugary drinks, and leftover soda cans are like a party invitation for wasps.
Protein – Grilled meats and pet food can attract meat-loving species like yellow jackets.
Standing water – Birdbaths, leaky sprinklers, or even puddles give them something to drink.
Shelter – Eaves, rooflines, sheds, and playground equipment all make cozy nesting spots.
Flowering plants – Wasps feed on nectar too, so bright blooms can catch their attention.
Are Chemicals Are Meaner, Here’s How We Deal With Them.
Once we find the nests, we spray and remove them. Wasps are sneaky and often build more than one nest at a time, so we also treat all the eaves and the area around your home — up to 30 feet out! It will keep them from coming back. Also, because we spray 30’ out, this will eliminate their food source.
The service comes with a 2-month guarantee, so if you see wasps hanging around again, just give us a call and we’ll come back out at no extra charge.
