Stinging Insect Removal in Portland
Wasps, yellow jackets and bald-faced hornets, treated and removed by a technician in a bee suit.
A nest by the front door, a buzzing sound inside a wall, or yellow jackets coming and going from the same spot all day are signs of an active stinging insect nest. These nests are best left to a professional in the right protective gear.
We treat and remove nests of wasps, yellow jackets and bald-faced hornets, including nests in eaves, sheds, soffits and wall voids.
A technician identifies which insect you have and where the nest is, then explains the plan before any work begins.
How it works
- 1
Identify and locate
We identify the insect and find the nest, whether it is in an eave, a shed, a soffit or inside a wall void.
- 2
Treat the nest
A technician in full protective gear treats the nest.

Remove the nest
Once it is treated, the nest is removed so it is not left to attract other pests.
