You step outside without scanning for angry wasps first. Your kids play in the yard without you watching over your shoulder, worried about sudden stings.
That backyard barbecue happens without guests constantly swatting and complaining. Your morning coffee on the deck becomes peaceful again, not a tactical mission to avoid getting stung.
When we eliminate a wasp nest, we target the entire colony – queen, workers, and larvae. Other companies spray what they can see and call it done, leaving you with the same problem in a few weeks when survivors rebuild.
We’ve been protecting Bridgeport families since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every wasp removal job, and we’ve earned our reputation through Angie’s List and Home Advisor awards.
You get the same technician year after year – no rotating college students who don’t know your property. We’re one of under 100 companies in the U.S. offering specialized services like canine bed bug detection, proving our commitment to advanced pest control methods.
We understand Bridgeport’s unique challenges. Late summer brings peak wasp danger as colonies reach maximum size with up to 5,000 members, becoming increasingly aggressive as they search for food sources around homes and outdoor dining areas.
First, we locate all active nests through careful property inspection. We track wasp flight patterns to identify entry and exit points that indicate colony locations, checking eaves, ground areas, wall voids, and other common nesting sites.
Next, we apply professional-grade treatments directly to nesting sites using specialized equipment. Our combination of liquid and dust treatments ensures we penetrate the entire colony and eliminate wasps at their source, including hard-to-reach areas like walls and attics.
Finally, we remove the physical nest structure and seal entry points to prevent reestablishment. We also treat void areas with residual insecticides that continue killing emerging wasps for months, discouraging them from returning next season.

Your wasp nest removal includes emergency response when you discover nests unexpectedly – we typically respond within 24 hours, often same-day for nests near high-traffic areas like doorways or play areas.
You receive thorough exterior property evaluation, professional-grade nest treatment using commercial products not available to consumers, and complete physical nest removal when accessible. We also provide safety guidance for your family during the elimination process.
Bridgeport’s location means dealing with both ground-nesting yellow jackets that are accidentally discovered during lawn maintenance and aerial nests in eaves and trees. Our treatments create residual barriers that continue protecting your property for months, not just hours like store-bought sprays.
We typically respond within 24 hours for wasp emergencies, often same-day when nests are discovered near high-traffic areas like doorways, play areas, or outdoor dining spaces. Peak wasp season in Bridgeport runs from late August through September when colonies reach maximum size and become most dangerous.
During this critical period, wasps become increasingly aggressive as natural food sources decline and they seek sugary substances around homes. We understand that discovering a nest unexpectedly – especially ground-nesting yellow jackets during lawn maintenance – creates an urgent safety concern that needs immediate professional attention.
Our emergency response includes safety assessment, immediate nest treatment, and guidance for keeping family and pets safe during the elimination process. We prioritize calls involving children, pets, or individuals with known allergies to wasp stings.
Professional wasp removal uses commercial-grade products with higher concentrations of active ingredients and longer-lasting formulations that aren’t available to consumers. Store-bought sprays typically provide only temporary knockdown of visible wasps, while our treatments eliminate entire colonies including queens and larvae.
We have specialized equipment like power dusters that can treat hard-to-reach nests in walls, attics, and high eaves without putting you at risk. Our technicians wear proper protective equipment and understand wasp behavior patterns – when they’re most aggressive, how they defend nests, and safe approach techniques.
DIY attempts often result in partial treatment that leaves surviving wasps extremely agitated and defensive. Unlike bees that sting once, wasps can sting multiple times and will attack in large numbers when their nest is threatened. Professional removal eliminates this danger while ensuring complete colony elimination.
Yes, we handle all types of wasp nests common to Bridgeport including ground-nesting yellow jackets, aerial paper wasp nests, and large hornet nests in trees or under eaves. Each type requires different treatment approaches based on nest location and wasp species behavior.
Ground-nesting yellow jackets are particularly problematic in Bridgeport because they’re often discovered accidentally during lawn maintenance, leading to painful multiple stings. We use specialized dust treatments that wasps carry into the nest core, contaminating the entire colony within one to two days.
Aerial nests require different equipment and techniques, especially when located in high or hard-to-reach areas. We have the tools and experience to safely treat these nests without causing property damage or putting anyone at risk of defensive wasp attacks during the removal process.
Properly eliminated wasp colonies will not return to the same location, but you may see individual foraging wasps for roughly 24 hours as they return to discover their nest is gone. These returning wasps may appear agitated, so we recommend staying away from treated areas until no more activity is visible.
Our treatment includes residual insecticides in void areas that continue killing emerging wasps for six months or more in protected locations. We also seal entry points where possible to prevent new colonies from establishing in the same spots next season.
However, new wasp colonies can form elsewhere on your property as queens establish nests each spring. We offer spring prevention services that target overwintering queens before they establish colonies, which is far more effective and affordable than emergency removal of mature nests with thousands of members.
Do not attempt to disturb or treat the nest yourself – wasps become extremely aggressive when they feel threatened and can sting multiple times. Keep family members and pets away from the area and avoid using lawn equipment or doing yard work near the nest location.
Observe the nest from a safe distance to help our technician locate it quickly when we arrive. Note the flight patterns of wasps entering and exiting, as this helps identify the exact nest location and size of the colony we’re dealing with.
Call us immediately for assessment, especially if the nest is near high-traffic areas, if you have children or pets, or if anyone in your household has known allergies to wasp stings. Early intervention is much safer and more effective than waiting for the colony to grow larger and more defensive.
Prevention starts with spring treatments that target overwintering queens before they establish new colonies. Early season queen elimination dramatically reduces summer wasp problems by preventing colony establishment rather than dealing with mature nests containing thousands of wasps.
We identify and seal potential nesting sites like gaps in siding, eaves, and other protected areas where queens commonly establish colonies. Our technicians also remove attractants like uncovered garbage, sweet substances, and food sources that draw wasps to your property.
Our integrated pest management approach includes regular property inspections during peak season, immediate response to new nest discoveries, and ongoing treatments that address wasps alongside other stinging insects. This comprehensive approach creates an environment where wasps are less likely to choose your property for nesting in the first place.
