We’ve been serving Corunna residents since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every hornet removal job, and we’ve earned awards from both Angie’s List and Home Advisor for consistent, reliable service.
Unlike larger companies that send different technicians each time, we assign you the same experienced professional for every visit. This means your technician knows your property’s unique challenges and can spot potential hornet nesting sites before they become dangerous problems.
We serve both residential and commercial customers throughout Shiawassee County, understanding the specific pest pressures that affect this area of Michigan. When hornets threaten your family’s safety, you need local expertise you can trust.
Our removal process starts with a thorough property inspection to locate all hornet nests and assess the species involved. Different hornets require different approaches, and proper identification is critical for safe, effective removal.
Your technician uses specialized equipment and protective gear to safely eliminate the hornets and remove the nest. The treatment targets both adult hornets and larvae to prevent the colony from rebuilding. All work is done during optimal timing when most hornets are inside the nest.
After removal, your technician treats surrounding areas to discourage new nest construction and provides recommendations for preventing future infestations. You’ll receive a detailed explanation of what was done and what to expect in the days following treatment.

Your hornet removal service includes complete nest elimination, treatment of surrounding areas, and follow-up monitoring to ensure the problem is completely resolved. If hornets return to the same location, we return at no additional charge.
Corunna’s mature trees and residential landscaping create ideal conditions for hornet nests. The area’s proximity to wooded areas means properties often deal with both aerial nests in trees and eaves, as well as ground-nesting species that can be even more aggressive when disturbed.
Michigan sees thousands of hospitalizations annually from hornet and wasp stings, making professional removal essential rather than optional. Our approach eliminates the entire colony, not just visible hornets, preventing the dangerous swarming behavior that occurs when nests are only partially treated.
Most hornet emergencies in Corunna can be addressed within 24-48 hours of your call, often sooner for urgent situations near high-traffic areas. The timing depends on the nest location and species involved.
Hornets near walkways, patios, or children’s play areas get priority treatment because of the immediate safety risk. We’ll assess the situation over the phone and provide a realistic timeframe for safe removal.
Emergency hornet removal is scheduled as soon as possible because these insects become more aggressive as colony size increases throughout the summer. Waiting often makes the removal more dangerous and expensive.
Hornets can sting multiple times and release alarm pheromones that trigger swarming behavior from the entire colony. Unlike bees that sting once, hornets will continue attacking until they no longer perceive a threat.
Most serious hornet stinging incidents occur when untrained people attempt DIY removal. Store-bought sprays often only kill surface insects, leaving the angry survivors to swarm and attack. Professional equipment and protective gear are essential for safe removal.
Hornet nests can contain hundreds or thousands of insects, far more than most homeowners realize. Professional technicians know how to eliminate the entire colony safely while minimizing the risk of defensive swarming.
Yes, we handle all types of hornet nests common to the Corunna area, including aerial nests in trees and eaves as well as ground-nesting species like yellowjackets that are often mistaken for hornets.
Each nest type requires different removal techniques and timing. Aerial nests are typically treated in early morning or evening when most hornets are inside, while ground nests may require specialized dust applications that penetrate deep into the colony.
Your technician will identify the specific species and nest type during the initial inspection, then explain the safest removal approach for your particular situation. Different hornets have different aggression levels and defensive behaviors.
Proper hornet removal eliminates the entire colony, including larvae and pupae, preventing the nest from rebuilding. However, new hornet colonies can establish nests in the same general area the following year.
We treat surrounding areas after nest removal to discourage new colony establishment. The treatment creates a barrier that makes the location less attractive for future nest construction, though it cannot prevent all new activity.
If hornets return to the exact same location within the treatment period, we return at no additional charge to address the problem. Most customers choose ongoing seasonal protection to prevent new colonies from establishing.
Professional hornet removal uses specialized protective equipment and commercial-grade treatments not available to consumers. Your technician wears full protective gear and uses equipment designed specifically for stinging insect control.
Safety protocols include treating nests during optimal timing when hornets are least active, using approach methods that minimize defensive responses, and having emergency procedures in place if unexpected swarming occurs.
Your family will be advised to stay indoors during the removal process and for a specified time afterward. The technician will provide clear instructions about when it’s safe to resume normal outdoor activities around the treated area.
We guarantee complete nest elimination and provide follow-up service at no additional charge if hornets return to the same location. The guarantee covers both the initial removal and any necessary retreatment within the specified period.
Your service includes thorough property inspection, safe nest removal, treatment of surrounding areas, and detailed recommendations for preventing future infestations. If the initial treatment doesn’t completely resolve the problem, we return until it does.
The guarantee reflects our confidence in our removal methods and 20 years of experience with Michigan’s hornet species. Most customers see immediate results and complete elimination of hornet activity within 24-48 hours of treatment.
