Complete Hornet Control Services

Everything You Need for Total Protection

Your hornet removal service includes complete nest elimination, not just a quick spray-and-run job. We locate every nest on your property because hornets often build multiple colonies in different areas.

Thomas properties face unique challenges with hornets nesting in mature trees, under deck overhangs, and in the wall voids of older homes common in our area. We’re equipped to handle these specific situations safely.

You also get our guarantee that the job is done right. If hornets return to the same location, we come back at no charge because we stand behind our work.

How dangerous are hornets compared to other stinging insects?

Hornets are significantly more dangerous than most other stinging insects you’ll encounter in Thomas. Unlike bees that can only sting once, hornets can sting multiple times and inject more venom with each sting. They’re also much more aggressive, especially during late summer when their colonies reach peak size. A single hornet can release pheromones that call the entire colony to attack, meaning you could face dozens of angry hornets within seconds. For people with allergies, even one hornet sting can be life-threatening and require immediate medical attention.

Can I remove a hornet nest myself with store-bought sprays?

We strongly advise against DIY hornet nest removal, especially with over-the-counter sprays. These products rarely reach deep enough into the nest to eliminate the entire colony, and they often just anger the hornets. Most store-bought sprays require you to get dangerously close to the nest, putting you at serious risk of multiple stings. Hornets become extremely aggressive when their nest is threatened, and they can swarm in seconds. Professional removal uses specialized equipment that allows us to treat nests from a safe distance while wearing full protective gear. The success rate is dramatically higher, and you avoid the very real danger of a hornet attack.

When is hornet season in Michigan and when should I call?

Hornet activity in Michigan typically peaks from late summer through early fall, roughly August through October. This is when colonies are at their largest and hornets are most aggressive as they prepare for winter. However, you should call immediately if you spot a nest at any time during the active season. Waiting only allows the colony to grow larger and more dangerous. Early intervention is always safer and more effective. If you see hornets flying in and out of the same area repeatedly, or notice a paper-like nest structure, don’t wait to see if the problem resolves itself—it won’t.

How do you safely remove hornets from hard-to-reach places?

We use specialized equipment including extension poles, power dusters, and professional-grade protective suits that allow us to treat nests up to 25 feet high safely. For wall voids or enclosed areas, we have injection systems that deliver treatment directly into the colony. Our technicians are trained in proper ladder safety and have the right equipment to access eaves, attics, and other challenging locations where hornets commonly build nests in Thomas homes. We never cut corners on safety equipment or try to rush through dangerous removals. Every job gets the full professional treatment regardless of how difficult the access might be.

What happens after you remove the hornet nest?

After eliminating the colony and removing the nest, we thoroughly inspect the area for any remaining hornets and seal entry points to prevent future infestations. This includes filling gaps in siding, caulking cracks, and addressing structural vulnerabilities. We also provide you with a detailed explanation of what we found, what we did, and recommendations for preventing future problems. You’ll know exactly why the hornets chose that location and how to avoid attracting them again. Our work comes with a guarantee, so if hornets return to the same treated area, we’ll come back at no additional charge to resolve the issue.

Do you offer emergency hornet removal services in Thomas?

Yes, we understand that hornet problems can’t always wait for regular business hours, especially when someone has been stung or there’s immediate danger to your family. We prioritize emergency calls and can often respond the same day. Emergency situations include active nests near entryways, hornets inside your home, or when someone with known allergies has been stung and you need the threat eliminated immediately. Our emergency service covers Thomas and surrounding areas because we know how quickly a hornet situation can escalate from a minor annoyance to a serious safety threat.
