Prevention and Maintenance Questions

  1. How can I prevent them from coming back next year?
    1. Seal cracks and openings in siding, soffits, and vents
    2. Remove old nests in the off-season
    3. Avoid leaving food and sugary drinks outdoors
    4. Schedule annual inspections in spring or early summer
  2. Do you offer a seasonal protection plan?
    Yes! We offer plans that provide monitoring and preventative treatments throughout the active season—from spring through fall.
  3. Should I seal up any openings or cracks in my home? Absolutely. Sealing gaps in your exterior can greatly reduce nesting opportunities, especially for yellow jackets looking for wall voids.
  4. Are there certain plants, food, or trash that attract them?Yes—flowers, fruits, compost, soda, and meats can all attract wasps. Keep outdoor trash tightly sealed and clean up food waste after outdoor meals.
  5. Can I do anything myself to reduce the risk? Yes. Keep your property clean, inspect regularly, and call early if you suspect a nest. Installing decoy nests or traps may help reduce activity, but they are not foolproof.
