How to identify yellowjacket
Black-and-yellow banded wasps that nest in the ground, wall voids, or hollow trees, and become aggressive in late summer/fall as colonies peak and food sources dwindle.
What a pest pro would do
- Inspect the eaves, soffits, roofline, ground, and voids for active nests.
- Treat and remove nests safely, timed for when the colony is least active — high or hidden nests are handled with the right equipment.
- Apply a residual barrier to the Peak Line where new queens rebuild; honey bees are referred for live relocation, not killed.
- Return through the season to catch new nests early.
