Wasps can and will build their nests anywhere.

So far this summer our technicians have removed nests from garages, soffits, porches, eves, balconies, trees in backyards, and from inside of a patio pergola too.

Though their presence bothers us day to day, an even more unpleasant surprise could be found in the strangest of places. Take a peek at where our technicians found some of these crafty insects building homes, around your homes!

*CAUTION*: We don’t recommend dealing with wasps yourself, best to call a professional wasp control expert.

#2 The Pretty One

Though they might look pretty in colour, these buggers are more bite, or sting, than bark!

#3 The Architect

Wasps can be creative architects and great improvisers! A simple lightblub’s cage could provide an excellent foundation for their next home.
