You get your yard back without the constant worry of aggressive wasps threatening your family’s safety. No more cancelled barbecues or keeping kids indoors during peak wasp season.
Your outdoor spaces become usable again. Morning coffee on the deck, evening walks around the property, and weekend yard work all happen without the fear of disturbing a hidden nest.
The peace of mind is immediate. Professional removal means the job gets done right the first time, with follow-up protection to prevent future colonies from establishing in the same areas.
We’ve been serving Birch Run and surrounding Michigan communities since 2005. We’re the family-owned company that understands what it’s like to live with Michigan’s seasonal wasp problems.
Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every job. We’re not the company that sends different technicians every time or relies on part-time college students to handle dangerous wasp removal.
Our 4.7-star rating from over 363 local customers reflects our commitment to getting the job done safely and completely. We’ve earned awards with Angie’s List and Home Advisor because Birch Run families know they can count on us when wasps threaten their property.
We start with a thorough property inspection to locate all active nests and identify the wasp species you’re dealing with. Different species require different approaches, and we know exactly what works for Michigan’s common wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets.
Next comes targeted treatment using professional-grade materials that eliminate the colony at its source. We use specialized equipment to reach difficult locations like wall voids, high eaves, or underground nests without putting anyone at risk.
After the wasps are eliminated, we safely remove the nest and apply preventative treatments to discourage future infestations. You’ll also get practical advice on making your property less attractive to wasps next season, based on what we’ve learned from 20 years of local experience.

Our wasp nest removal service covers all common Michigan species including yellow jackets, paper wasps, bald-faced hornets, and mud daubers. We handle nests in any location – from obvious spots under eaves to hidden colonies inside walls or underground.
Birch Run’s established neighborhoods, with homes averaging from 1978, often provide ideal nesting conditions in older structures. We know where wasps typically establish colonies in this area and how to prevent them from returning to the same spots year after year.
Every removal includes a service guarantee, same-day availability for urgent situations, and follow-up inspections to ensure complete elimination. We also offer discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders because protecting our community has always been our priority.
DIY wasp removal is extremely dangerous and we strongly advise against it. Michigan’s yellow jackets are particularly aggressive and can sting multiple times without losing their stinger, unlike bees.
These wasps will chase perceived threats for distances up to a mile and often have guard wasps stationed at nest entrances. When disturbed, they release pheromones that trigger other colony members to attack, potentially resulting in dozens of stings.
Most DIY attempts fail because homeowners can’t safely reach the nest location or don’t have the proper protective equipment. Store-bought sprays require getting dangerously close to the nest and often just anger the wasps without eliminating the colony completely.
The safest and most effective time for wasp nest removal is early morning or evening when wasps are less active and most are inside the nest. However, if you discover an active nest, don’t wait – call us immediately for same-day service.
Michigan wasp colonies reach their maximum size by late summer, often housing thousands of wasps. Spring removal is ideal when colonies are smaller, but we successfully remove large nests throughout the active season using specialized techniques and equipment.
Never attempt to wait until winter thinking the problem will resolve itself. While wasps abandon nests after hard frosts, the same favorable locations often attract new queens the following spring, creating recurring problems year after year.
Birch Run residents most commonly encounter yellow jackets, paper wasps, and bald-faced hornets. Yellow jackets are the most problematic because they nest in wall voids, underground, or other hidden locations and become extremely aggressive in late summer.
Paper wasps build their umbrella-shaped nests under eaves, porch ceilings, and similar protected areas. While less aggressive than yellow jackets, they will defend their nests vigorously if disturbed during yard work or other activities.
Bald-faced hornets create large, football-shaped nests in trees and bushes. Despite their name, they’re actually a type of yellow jacket and are highly defensive of their colonies. All of these species can sting multiple times and pose serious risks to anyone with allergies.
Wasp nest removal costs depend on factors like nest location, size, species, and accessibility. Simple nests in easy-to-reach locations cost less than complex removals involving wall voids or high aerial nests requiring specialized equipment.
We provide upfront pricing with no hidden charges and offer price matching for reasonable competitors’ rates. Most Birch Run homeowners find professional removal much more cost-effective than multiple DIY attempts, potential medical bills from stings, or property damage from aggressive wasps.
Our service includes complete elimination, safe nest removal, and follow-up protection – not just a quick spray treatment that might temporarily scatter the wasps. We also offer discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders as part of our commitment to the community.
Wasps don’t reuse old nests, but they often return to favorable nesting sites. That’s why our service includes preventative treatments and sealing of entry points to discourage future colonies from establishing in the same areas.
Birch Run’s older homes often have structural features that attract nesting wasps – gaps in siding, accessible eaves, and sheltered areas that provide ideal conditions. We identify these vulnerabilities and provide recommendations to make your property less attractive to future colonies.
Our follow-up inspections ensure complete elimination and verify that our preventative measures are working effectively. Most customers see dramatic reductions in wasp activity around their property after professional treatment, especially when combined with our prevention recommendations.
Yes, we provide same-day emergency wasp nest removal throughout Birch Run and surrounding areas. If you discover an active nest near high-traffic areas or if someone has been stung, don’t wait – call us immediately for urgent service.
Emergency situations often involve nests discovered during yard maintenance, children’s play areas, or when wasps are entering the home through wall voids. We understand these situations require immediate professional attention to prevent injuries and protect your family.
Our emergency response includes the same thorough treatment and safety protocols as scheduled services. We carry all necessary equipment and protective gear to handle any wasp species and nest location safely, even in urgent situations that can’t wait for regular business hours.
