Call (209) 563-1650Frequently asked questions
How do you remove a nest under the eaves?
An eave or soffit nest is treated directly, usually at dusk or dawn when wasps are least active, then removed once the colony is eliminated. Void nests in the soffit get treated at the entry point.
Do wasps reuse old nests?
Paper wasps and hornets build new nests each year rather than reusing old ones, but they often favor the same sheltered spots, so removing the nest and sealing the location discourages rebuilding.
When is the safest time to treat a nest?
Dusk and dawn are safest, when most of the colony is on the nest and least active. Treating in the heat of the day, when wasps are out foraging and defensive, is riskier.
