Common Misconceptions

“If I remove a nest once, they won’t return — without sealing, new colonies may return each year.”

“You should knock down a nest as soon as possible — it’s safer to let pros do it correctly.”

“Yellow jackets are only a daytime threat — they may sting if disturbed at night, too.”

Real Case Studies

In East Liberty, a chimney cap held a large nest. We accessed it from the roof and removed it in one trip.

A daycare in the Hill District needed treatment before reopening — we completed the job before 8 AM.
