Call (209) 563-1650Frequently asked questions
Why are yellow jackets so aggressive in August?
By late summer, colonies are at peak size and their food shifts toward sugars, so more foragers are out and the colony defends a large nest fiercely — which is why August and September bring the most stings.
Can I pour something down a ground nest?
Home remedies often fail and provoke stings, since the colony defends the entrance. Professional treatment applied to the entrance at the right time eliminates the nest more safely and reliably.
Will a wall nest chew into my home?
A yellow jacket colony in a wall void can, in some cases, chew through drywall toward light and warmth, so a wall nest should be treated promptly rather than waited out.
