Our Wasp Nest Removal Process

Simple Steps, Complete Elimination

First, we inspect your property to locate all active nests and identify the wasp species. Different types require different approaches, and missing even one nest means the problem continues.

Next, we suit up in professional protective gear and use specialized equipment to safely eliminate the colony. We treat the nest when wasps are least active, reducing the chance of aggressive behavior and ensuring we get the entire population.

Finally, we remove the physical nest structure and treat the area to prevent re-infestation. We also check for other potential nesting sites around your property and give you practical advice on keeping wasps from coming back. You’ll know exactly what to watch for and when to call us if you spot new activity.

How dangerous is it to remove a wasp nest myself?

Extremely dangerous, especially if you’re allergic to stings or dealing with a large colony. Wasps become highly aggressive when their nest is threatened, and they can sting multiple times unlike bees. A disturbed colony can swarm and chase you for significant distances. Yellow jackets, common in New Jersey, are particularly aggressive and can call in reinforcements through pheromone signals. Professional removal eliminates the risk of multiple stings and ensures complete nest elimination without putting you in danger.
Wasp activity peaks from late summer through early fall, typically August through October in New Jersey. During this time, colonies are at their largest and wasps become more aggressive as they search for food sources. However, nests start forming in late spring, so early detection and removal in May or June prevent larger infestations later. Winter kills most wasps, but queens survive to start new colonies the following spring, often in the same general area if the previous nest wasn’t properly treated.
Wasps have smooth, hairless bodies with a defined waist and bright yellow and black coloring. They’re aggressive and can sting repeatedly. Bees are fuzzy, more rounded, and generally less aggressive unless directly threatened. Wasps build paper-like nests from chewed wood pulp, while bees create waxy honeycomb structures. Wasp nests often appear gray or brown and can be found under eaves, in wall voids, or underground. If you see insects going in and out of a specific location repeatedly, you likely have a nest that needs professional attention regardless of the species.
Not if the nest is completely eliminated and the area is properly treated. However, wasps may return to the same general area if conditions remain favorable – like accessible food sources, water, and good nesting sites. Some wasps that were away from the nest during treatment may return and hover around the former nest site for a few days before leaving permanently. Professional removal includes treating the nest location to discourage re-establishment and identifying other potential nesting sites on your property to prevent new colonies from forming nearby.
We provide same-day service for emergency wasp removal situations in West Collingswood. Emergency situations include nests near entryways, wasps inside your home, or situations where someone allergic has been stung.
