Yellow jackets become more aggressive in late summer as colonies peak and natural food sources decline. They're attracted to sweet foods and proteins, bringing them into conflict with outdoor activities.
We treat ground nests at dusk when all workers have returned. Dust insecticide applied to the entrance coats workers as they enter and exit, eliminating the colony within 24-48 hours.
Yes, yellow jackets often nest in wall voids, entering through gaps in siding. These nests are particularly dangerous and require professional treatment to avoid driving wasps into living spaces.
Keep food covered outdoors, use sealed garbage containers, and avoid sweet fragrances. Don't swat at yellow jackets—it triggers defensive behavior. Call us for nest removal rather than attempting it yourself.
