Common Misconceptions

“Yellow jackets only nest in trees — they frequently build nests in ground holes and soffits.”

“The colder it gets, the less risk there is — nests are often most active in late summer and fall.”

“If you can’t see a nest, it’s not a problem — many nests are hidden behind walls or decks.”

Real Case Studies
