Wasp Nest Removal

Once the wasp nest has been removed, eco-friendly treatments can prevent wasps from returning to rebuild in the same location. Vinegar and peppermint essential oils are effective wasp repellents.

It depends! Some species of wasps chew wood and turn that into materials for their nest. This means that wood frames around your home are susceptible to damage.

If you see a wasp nest, don’t go near it, and keep pets and children away. DIY wasp removal is too great a risk. Wasps protect their nests, swarming to drive humans or animals away. People allergic to wasp stings can experience a medical emergency, including severe swelling and trouble breathing from a single sting. Those with no allergy can develop one from multiple stings. Too many stings can be fatal even without an allergy.

If the wasp nest is thoroughly sprayed with a repellent that remains effective for a period of time, the wasps will not return to the nest. Treating the nest or the nesting spot is necessary to keep wasps from rebuilding on the location.

To prevent future wasp infestations, here are a few things you can do:

• Seal cracks in windows and doors.
• Clean up food waste or spills.
• Take out the trash frequently to prevent nesting.
• Remove standing water.
• Use wasp traps or baits in places you’ve seen them before.
• Spray common nesting areas with essential oils to keep them away.
