Why Hornets and Wasps Are Such a Problem

Hornets and wasps are aggressive and territorial stinging insects that belong to the same family but differ in appearance, behavior, and threat levels. These insects will fiercely defend their nests, and one wrong move could lead to a painful situation.

Here are a few ways to tell them apart and understand their risks:

  • Hornets are larger and typically more aggressive than wasps, known for their painful stings and tendency to defend their nests strongly.
  • Paper wasps are often smaller, with long legs, and build open, umbrella-shaped nests under eaves or sheltered spots.
  • Yellowjackets are a type of wasp that is more aggressive during late summer and fall and often found scavenging food from trash.

Both hornets and wasps can sting multiple times, making them dangerous for anyone allergic to stings or caught too close to their nests. 

Safe and Effective Nest Removal

Hornet and wasp stings can be painful and, in some cases, cause severe allergic reactions. Attempting to remove a nest without the right equipment or training can be dangerous. At The Eliminator Pest & Property Service, we use industry-approved tools and protective gear to locate and eliminate nests in hard-to-reach places such as under eaves, inside sheds, or within trees. We also provide treatments that discourage future infestations, giving you long-term peace of mind.

Benefits of Choosing Professional Pest Control:

  • Safe removal without risk to you or your family
  • Prevents re-infestation with targeted treatments
  • Professional-grade equipment for hard-to-reach nests
  • Eco-friendly and effective solutions
  • Quick response to urgent infestations

How Can I Tell If I Have a Hornet or Wasp Problem?

Hornets and wasps are more active during warmer months, and you may notice them flying in and out of a specific spot on your property. Common signs include:

  • Visible paper-like nests under eaves or in trees
  • Increased buzzing near certain areas
  • Insects swarming around garbage, compost, or outdoor food
  • Buzzing sounds coming from wall voids

If you see these signs, contact a professional before the problem worsens.

Are Hornets and Wasps Dangerous to Remove Myself?

Yes — attempting to remove a nest on your own can result in multiple stings, which may lead to medical emergencies. Hornets and wasps are highly territorial and will aggressively defend their nests. Our Burlington pest control experts have the training, equipment, and safety measures to handle them quickly and effectively.
