Our natural-first approach to stinging insects in Richmond
Our technicians safely remove wasp, hornet, and yellow jacket nests using protective equipment and precise application methods. We then apply natural deterrents to prevent rebuilding and recommend modifications to reduce future nesting opportunities.

| Pollinators | Targeted, bee-conscious timing | Frequent non-target impact |
| Inspection | Free, no-pressure, honest call | Often a sales visit |
| Contracts | No lock-in, cancel anytime | Long-term agreements common |
