Our Safe Wasp Nest Removal Process
Inspection & Identification
We locate the nest, identify the types of wasps (yellowjackets, paper wasps, mud daubers, etc.), and assess risks.
Targeted Treatment
We apply the right method for the species and location, using precision tools and protective gear.
Nest Removal
When safe and appropriate, we remove the wasp nest and secure access points.
Exclusion & Prevention
We recommend sealing gaps and managing food sources to keep wasps from returning.
Follow‑Up
Need us back? We'll return if you see activity.
How We Keep Your Property Safe
- Low‑drift, targeted applications
- After‑hours scheduling to reduce exposure
- Care for pets, pollinators, and landscaping
- Clear guidance on re‑entry and clean‑up
Common Wasps We Handle in California
- Yellowjackets (e.g., Western yellowjacket) – Often nest in ground or wall voids; can be aggressive.
- Paper wasps (including European paper wasp) – Umbrella‑shaped open paper nests under eaves.
- Bald‑faced hornet (aerial yellowjacket) – Large enclosed paper nests in trees or structures.
- Mud daubers – Mud tubes on walls and eaves; generally less aggressive.
- Tarantula hawks – Large solitary wasps; painful sting but rarely aggressive unless provoked.
- Cicada killers (Western species) – Large solitary wasps; dig in sandy soil; seldom sting people.
Proper identification matters. Different types of wasps need different removal methods.

How do I know if I have a wasp nest?
You’ll notice concentrated wasp activity near eaves, trees, or ground holes. Buzzing or scraping in walls can also indicate nesting.
Can I remove a wasp nest myself?
It’s not recommended. Wasps can sting multiple times and defend aggressively. Always contact a licensed pest control professional for safe removal.

Yes, they pollinate and control other insects. However, when they nest near people or pets, professional removal is the safest option.
