Preparing for Bee, Wasp & Hornet Control Services

When the weather warms up, you will see higher activity in all insects, including bees, hornets, and wasps. These insects can form nests inside your walls, and as the nest enlarges, they may chew through your walls or ceiling, causing them to enter your home or business.

It is possible to encounter bees inside your property in the wintertime. This may occur because they can make nests inside insulation or walls. The nest will become disturbed when the heat is turned on. In such cases, an exterminator will need to locate and treat the nest inside your walls or ceiling. Ignoring a small nest can lead to more significant problems as it will continue to grow throughout the season!

Types of Bees, Wasps, and Hornets We Handle

When dealing with flying insects, it's essential to accurately identify the species to provide effective bee control, wasp control, and hornet control solutions. Here are some common types of stinging insects in Buffalo, NY.

Carpenter Bees

  • Carpenter Bees are identifiable by their bare, shiny, all-black abdomen with yellow between the head and abdomen and typically about 1 inch long.
  • Attracted to exposed, untreated exterior wood, they can drill 5/8-inch holes into the wood and create tunnels to lay their larvae and store pollen.
  • Active from May to July, causing damage to decks, houses, fences, and other wooden structures.
  • Left untreated, infestations can lead to severe wood damage & attract woodpeckers.

Yellow Jackets & Hornets

  • Yellow jackets and hornets are black and yellow in color and the most common type of nuisance.
  • They are opportunistic nest builders, often found in trees, soffits, siding, inside walls, or abandoned animal holes.
  • The nests are made of a paper-like material.
  • Look for discoloration on the wall or ceiling.
  • Yellow jackets and hornets can chew through drywall and enter your home if their nest is nearby.

European Hornets

  • European hornets are yellow and black in color, with an orange/red area near the head, larger than a yellow jacket.
  • Like yellow jackets, they will make a nest anywhere, such as hollow trees and wall openings, and are attracted to outdoor light fixtures at night.
  • Their sting is 2-3 times more painful than a yellow jacket due to larger amounts of venom.

Gold Diggers

  • Gold diggers are a mix of black with a reddish/orange base and purplish wings.
  • They are commonly found close to the ground, creating individual holes in loose sandy soil, and can have hundreds of holes in a small portion of the lawn.
  • They're generally more docile than other hornets and wasps.

Ground Bees

  • Ground bees are black and yellow in color, resembling smaller bumble bees.
  • Nests are made in the ground and can be discovered during yard work.
  • They can be fairly aggressive when disturbed.

Honeybees

  • We DO NOT exterminate honeybees.
  • Extermination is illegal due to their limited population.
  • Honeybee farmers are recommended to safely honeybees from your property.

Bald Faced Hornets

  • Bald Faced Hornets are black and white in color with a white head.
  • Generally more aggressive and larger than most hornets.
  • The nests can reach the size of a basketball or larger.
  • Capable of multiple stings due to unbarbed stingers.

Mud Wasps

  • Mud wasps are skinny and all-black in color, appearing purplish in sunlight.
  • They're attracted to wet areas for nesting materials and leave mud spots where the nest is made.
  • Nests are made of mud and filled with spiders to feed their young once hatched.
