Wasps and yellow jackets can quickly become a problem around homes and businesses, especially when nests are built near doors, rooflines, decks or other areas people use. BugZout provides professional wasp and yellow jacket control focused on locating the activity, treating the nest and reducing the risk of stings.
Wasps and yellow jackets build nests where they can find shelter, food and easy access to the outdoors. Around Southern Colorado, we commonly find activity near rooflines, eaves, decks, sheds, wall openings and other protected areas around homes and businesses.
Yellow jackets may also build nests in the ground or inside wall voids, making the nest difficult to see even when there is a lot of activity.
Seeing an occasional wasp isn't always a problem, but repeated activity in the same area can be a sign that a nest is nearby.
We look for the nest, flight patterns and areas where wasps or yellow jackets are entering and exiting. Finding the source helps us treat the actual problem instead of just the insects flying around.
Treatment is focused on the nest and active areas whenever they can be located. Depending on where the nest is located, the treatment method may vary.
We look for nesting areas and conditions around the property that may encourage future activity and can recommend practical ways to help reduce new nests.
Wasps and yellow jackets are common pests we deal with throughout Southern Colorado, especially during the warmer months when colonies become more active.
Nests can turn up under eaves, around decks and sheds, inside wall voids, and even underground. Yellow jackets can become particularly defensive when their nest is disturbed, especially later in the season when colonies are larger.
If you're seeing multiple wasps repeatedly flying in and out of the same spot, there may be a nest nearby—even if you can't see it.
