Signs to look for

Steady flight to one opening, visible paper nest material or insects entering a wall void can indicate an active nest. Keep people and pets away from the route.

How treatment starts

The technician identifies the insect, nest position and access risk. Honey bees and other beneficial pollinators may call for relocation or a different response.

Timing and follow-up

Species, height, access and a nest inside a wall can change the number and timing of visits.

Prevention

After activity has ended, repair suitable gaps, maintain screens and keep outdoor food, drink and waste covered.

What affects the price

Species, nest height, wall access, protective equipment, removal and repair requirements affect the quote.

Common questions

Should I block the nest opening?

No. Blocking an active opening can redirect insects into the building and provoke defensive behavior.

Do you remove honey bees?

This foundation leaves that claim blank. A real company should state whether it provides relocation or works with a beekeeper.
