Wasp Care
Pest Care Guide
About This Pest
Why They're Here
Wasps build nests in sheltered spots — under eaves, in door frames, behind shutters, and inside grills or play equipment. They're protective of their nests, which is why professional removal is the safest approach.
What to Watch For
Paper-like nests under eaves, porch ceilings, or in sheltered corners. Increased wasp activity near a particular area of your home.
Our Natural Approach
Targeted Treatment
We use targeted, least-toxic treatments — botanical and mineral-based as the primary approach — to address the source of the problem, not just the symptoms. Our approach focuses on long-term results, not quick fixes.
Family-Conscious Formulas
Our primary toolkit is botanical and mineral-based, formulated to minimize risk to your family and pets. No synthetic pyrethroid sprays. Products are either EPA 25(b) exempt (essential-oil based) or EPA-registered minimum-risk pesticides (silica gel, borate).
How You Can Help
- Check under eaves, decks, and play equipment regularly for new nests.
- Keep outdoor food and drinks covered during warm months.
- Make sure outdoor trash bins are tightly sealed.
- Avoid wearing strong fragrances when spending time outside.
Family & Pet Considerations
Our treatments use botanical and mineral-based products to minimize risk to your family — children and pets included. Products are either EPA 25(b) exempt or EPA-registered minimum-risk. If we ever recommend an EPA-registered escalation product, we'll show you the label and explain it before applying.
