Hornet Nest Removal Process

Complete Elimination in Three Steps

First, we locate every nest on your property—not just the obvious one you called about. Our technicians inspect under eaves, in wall voids, around decks, and anywhere hornets typically build. You’ll know exactly what we found and where.

Next, we apply targeted treatments directly to each nest using specialized equipment that reaches even hard-to-access areas. Our approach eliminates the entire colony, including hornets that aren’t at the nest when we treat it.

Finally, we remove the physical nest structure and seal entry points to prevent future infestations. You get a 90-day guarantee on our work, so if they come back, so do we.

What's Included in Your Service

Your hornet removal includes a complete property inspection, treatment of all discovered nests, physical nest removal, and entry point sealing. We also provide follow-up service if needed within our 90-day guarantee period.

In Brent Creek’s wooded environment, hornets often build multiple nests around the same property. We’ve seen homeowners deal with the same problem year after year because other companies only treat the nest you can see. Our thorough approach finds and eliminates every colony, including the hidden ones in attics, wall voids, and tree cavities.

We also educate you about prevention and provide advance notice before each visit so you can keep pets safely inside during treatment.

What types of hornets are common in Brent Creek, Michigan?

Michigan actually has very few true hornet species. What most people call “hornets” are typically bald-faced hornets, which are actually a type of yellowjacket with distinctive black and white markings. The European hornet is the only true hornet species established in Michigan. These are larger, brownish insects that are active at night—unlike most stinging insects. Both species can be aggressive when defending their nests and require professional removal for safety. We’re trained to identify exactly which species you’re dealing with, which determines the most effective treatment approach for your specific situation.

How quickly can you respond to a hornet emergency in Brent Creek?

We typically provide same-day or next-day service for hornet emergencies in Brent Creek. If you discover hornets inside your home or have someone with allergies at risk, we prioritize these calls. When you contact us, we’ll assess the urgency of your situation and schedule accordingly. For less urgent situations, we can usually get to you within 2-3 days. Our goal is to eliminate the threat quickly while ensuring the job is done thoroughly. We also provide advance notification before our technician arrives, so you can prepare your property and keep family and pets safely inside during treatment.

Will the hornets come back after treatment?

Our treatment eliminates the entire colony, including hornets that return to the nest site after we’ve treated it. However, new hornets can potentially establish different nests on your property in future seasons. That’s why we include a 90-day guarantee on our work. If hornets return to the same treated area within 90 days, we’ll come back at no additional charge to re-treat the problem. We also seal entry points and remove attractants to reduce the likelihood of future infestations. Many of our customers opt for seasonal maintenance programs to prevent new hornet problems before they start.

Is hornet removal safe for my family and pets?

Yes, when performed by trained professionals using proper equipment and techniques. We use targeted treatments that eliminate hornets while minimizing exposure to people and pets. Before each service, we’ll contact you in advance so you can bring pets inside and keep family members away from treatment areas. Our technicians wear full protective gear and use specialized application equipment to maintain safe distances from active nests. The products we use break down quickly in the environment and pose minimal risk when applied correctly. We’ll provide specific safety instructions for your situation and let you know when it’s safe to resume normal outdoor activities.

How much does hornet removal cost in Brent Creek?

Hornet removal costs vary based on the number of nests, their location, and accessibility. Simple, single-nest removals typically cost less than complex jobs involving multiple nests or hard-to-reach areas like attics or wall voids. We provide upfront pricing after inspecting your property, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before we start work. Our pricing is competitive with other professional services in the Brent Creek area, and we offer discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders. The investment in professional removal is worthwhile when you consider the safety risks and the likelihood that DIY approaches will fail to eliminate the entire colony, leading to recurring problems.

What's the difference between hornets, wasps, and yellowjackets?

These terms are often used interchangeably, but there are important distinctions. True hornets are actually a type of large wasp—Michigan only has one species, the European hornet, which is brown and active at night. “Bald-faced hornets” are actually yellowjackets with black and white markings. Paper wasps are smaller with longer legs and build umbrella-shaped nests. Yellowjackets are the most aggressive and often nest underground or in wall voids. Each species requires different removal approaches based on their nesting habits and behavior patterns. Our technicians are trained to identify the specific species you’re dealing with and apply the most effective treatment method for complete elimination.
