The difference is immediate. Where you once saw yellow jackets swarming around trash cans and hovering near outdoor dining areas, you’ll find quiet, safe spaces where your family can relax and play without fear.
Roger has been protecting Bridgeport families from yellow jacket infestations since 2005. We’re not the college kids with spray bottles that other companies send to your door.
Our family-owned approach means you get the same experienced technician every time. We’ve earned Angie’s List and Home Advisor awards, but more importantly, we’ve built our reputation on keeping local families safe during Michigan’s peak yellow jacket season.
Bridgeport residents know that late summer brings the most aggressive yellow jacket activity. When colonies reach 5,000 members and natural food sources decline, professional intervention isn’t optional—it’s essential for your family’s safety.
We start with a thorough property inspection, checking every potential nesting site—not just the obvious problem area. Yellow jackets build nests in underground burrows, wall voids, and hidden areas that homeowners often miss.
Our technician identifies all active colonies and maps their flight patterns to locate entry points. We use professional-grade equipment designed specifically for yellow jacket elimination, applying treatments during optimal times when most wasps are inside the nest.
The elimination process targets the entire colony, including the queen. We don’t just spray the visible workers—we eliminate the source. After treatment, we provide prevention recommendations and identify potential future nesting sites to keep your property protected.

Bridgeport’s yellow jacket season peaks from late August through September when colonies reach maximum size and become increasingly aggressive. During this critical period, we maintain emergency availability because yellow jacket encounters don’t happen on schedule—they happen when you’re doing yard work or when kids are playing outside.
We typically respond within 24 hours for yellow jacket emergencies in Bridgeport, with same-day service available when nests are discovered near doorways, play areas, or outdoor dining spaces. Emergency situations include nests in wall voids where wasps are entering your home, ground nests discovered while mowing, or aerial nests threatening outdoor activities.
Our rapid response is crucial because yellow jacket colonies in Michigan reach peak aggression during late summer. Delaying treatment allows colonies to grow larger and more dangerous, increasing the risk of multiple stings and serious reactions. We maintain emergency availability because yellow jacket encounters don’t happen on schedule—they happen when you’re trying to enjoy your property.
Yellow jackets are extremely aggressive defenders of their colonies and can sting multiple times without dying, unlike bees. When their nest is threatened, they release alarm pheromones that trigger coordinated attacks by hundreds of wasps. Individual yellow jackets can sting a victim multiple times, and for some people, these stings can be life-threatening.
During Bridgeport’s peak season from August through September, colonies reach up to 5,000 members and become increasingly aggressive as natural food sources decline. They actively seek sugary substances around homes and will chase perceived threats hundreds of feet from their nest. Ground-nesting species are particularly problematic in Bridgeport, often discovered accidentally during lawn maintenance, leading to painful multiple stings and potential allergic reactions.
Yellow jackets build nests both underground and in aerial locations around Bridgeport properties. Underground nests are commonly found in old rodent burrows, beneath porches or steps, at the base of trees, in sidewalk cracks, or around landscape features. These ground nests are particularly dangerous because they’re often discovered accidentally during routine yard maintenance.
Aerial nests appear in wall voids, behind siding, in attic spaces, under eaves, in dense shrubs, and sometimes in wood piles or storage areas. The entrance to most nests is typically a small hole that can be difficult to spot until wasp activity increases. Our comprehensive property inspection identifies all potential nesting sites, not just the obvious problem areas, ensuring complete elimination of current colonies and prevention of future infestations.
We use professional-grade equipment and proven elimination techniques designed specifically for aggressive yellow jacket colonies. Treatment typically occurs during evening or early morning hours when most wasps are inside the nest, reducing the risk of defensive swarming behavior. Our technicians wear full protective gear and use specialized application methods that target the entire colony, including the queen.
For ground nests, we apply professional insecticide dust that penetrates deep into the burrow system. For aerial nests, we use targeted treatments that eliminate wasps without forcing them into your living spaces. We never seal nest entrances until all wasps are eliminated, as trapped yellow jackets will try to escape into your home, creating a dangerous situation. Your family stays safely indoors during treatment, and we provide specific safety guidance throughout the elimination process.
Our comprehensive yellow jacket elimination service includes complete property inspection, identification of all active nests, professional-grade treatment of colonies, and follow-up monitoring to ensure complete elimination. We check every potential nesting site—underground burrows, wall voids, eaves, and other hidden areas where yellow jackets commonly establish colonies.
The service includes emergency response availability during peak season, safety guidance for your family during the elimination process, and prevention recommendations to reduce future infestations. We also identify potential nesting sites and provide specific advice for your property’s unique characteristics. As a family-owned business serving Bridgeport since 2005, we assign the same experienced technician to your property year after year, ensuring consistent, personalized service rather than sending different workers each time.
DIY yellow jacket elimination is extremely dangerous and often ineffective, especially during Bridgeport’s peak season when colonies reach maximum size and aggression. Yellow jackets can sting multiple times and will coordinate attacks when their nest is threatened, potentially resulting in dozens or hundreds of stings. For individuals with allergies, this can be life-threatening.
Most hardware store products aren’t designed for the complex nest structures that yellow jackets build, particularly underground colonies that can extend several feet in multiple directions. Incomplete treatment often makes the problem worse, as surviving wasps become more aggressive and may establish new nests nearby. Professional elimination requires specialized equipment, protective gear, and knowledge of yellow jacket behavior patterns. Our 26 years of experience in Michigan means we understand exactly how these aggressive wasps behave and how to eliminate entire colonies safely and completely.
