We don’t just spray and hope. We locate every nest, eliminate the colony at its source, and make sure they don’t come back to the same spots.
Roger founded First Choice Pest Control in 2005, and he’s been dealing with Michigan wasps for 26 years total. That’s a lot of nests, a lot of angry yellow jackets, and a lot of grateful families who can finally enjoy their backyards again.
We’re not the company that sends a different technician every time. You’ll work with the same professional who learns your property and understands exactly where wasps like to build around here. No part-time college students learning on your dime.
Thetford Center homeowners know that wasp problems peak in late summer when colonies reach their largest size. We’ve seen it all—from paper wasp nests under deck railings to aggressive yellow jacket colonies buried in your landscaping.
First, we inspect your entire property, not just the obvious nest you called about. Wasps often build multiple nests, and missing one means you’ll have the same problem in a few weeks.
We identify the species because yellow jackets require a completely different approach than paper wasps or bald-faced hornets. Each has different nesting habits, aggression levels, and vulnerabilities.
Treatment happens when wasps are least active—usually early morning or evening. We use professional-grade materials that eliminate the current population and keep killing returning wasps for days. For ground nests, we apply specialized dusts that contaminate the entire colony as wasps carry it back to the nest core.
After the wasps are eliminated, we remove the nest structure and seal entry points where possible. This prevents new colonies from taking over the same prime real estate next season.

Complete property inspection, not just the nest you can see. We check under eaves, around decks, in landscaping, and other common nesting sites specific to Thetford Center properties.
Species identification and customized treatment plan. Michigan has several wasp species, from relatively docile paper wasps to aggressive yellow jackets that nest underground. The approach matters.
Professional-grade elimination that works on the entire colony, not just the wasps you see flying around. We use targeted applications that contaminate the nest core and eliminate emerging wasps for extended periods.
In Thetford Center, we see a lot of yellow jacket activity around late summer when colonies can reach 2,000 wasps. Ground nests are particularly common here, often discovered painfully when homeowners are mowing or doing yard work. We know exactly where to look and how to treat them safely.
