We’ve been protecting Burton families since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every yellow jacket removal service call.
We’re the family-owned company that keeps the same technician working on your property year after year. No rotating crews of part-time college students who don’t understand Burton’s specific yellow jacket challenges.
Burton residents know exactly what we’re talking about – those aggressive late-summer swarms that make outdoor activities dangerous. We’ve been handling Burton’s peak yellow jacket season for two decades.
We start with a thorough inspection to locate all yellow jacket nests on your Burton property. These aggressive wasps often build in spots you’d never think to look – underground burrows, inside wall voids, or buried deep in dense vegetation.
Our trained technicians use professional-grade yellow jacket control treatments designed specifically for Michigan’s aggressive species. We target the entire nest structure, including the queen and larvae, not just the workers flying around your deck.
The treatment eliminates the colony within 24-48 hours. We return if any activity continues because our goal is complete elimination, not just temporary reduction. You get lasting protection backed by our service guarantee.

Our yellow jacket extermination service includes thorough nest location, professional treatment of all active colonies, and follow-up visits if needed. We handle both ground nests and aerial colonies throughout Burton’s residential areas.
Burton’s late summer yellow jacket season runs from August through September when colonies can house up to 5,000 aggressive wasps. These aren’t the friendly honey bees you want in your garden – yellow jackets can sting multiple times and will attack with minimal provocation.
We treat the specific yellow jacket species common in Burton and surrounding Genesee County areas, including Eastern and German yellow jackets that build different types of nests requiring targeted yellow jacket services approaches.
Yellow jackets reach peak aggression in Burton during late August and September when colonies are at maximum size. This is when you’ll see the most yellow jackets around garbage cans, picnic tables, and outdoor eating areas throughout Burton neighborhoods.
During this time, colonies can contain thousands of wasps that have shifted from hunting insects to scavenging for sugary foods and meat. They become extremely protective of their nests and will attack if they feel threatened, even by normal yard activities.
The danger is highest because these wasps can sting multiple times, unlike honey bees. A single disturbance near a nest can trigger dozens of yellow jackets to attack at once, making professional yellow jacket removal service essential for Burton families’ safety.
We use systematic inspection techniques to find yellow jacket nests that are often hidden underground, in wall voids, or dense vegetation around Burton properties. Our experienced technicians know the common nesting patterns of local yellow jacket species in Michigan.
Ground nests are typically found in abandoned rodent burrows or areas with loose soil common in Burton’s landscape. We look for steady traffic of wasps entering and leaving small openings near foundations, garden areas, or lawn edges.
Our 20 years of local experience means we know exactly where yellow jackets prefer to build in Burton’s climate and terrain. We check areas other companies often miss, ensuring complete nest elimination rather than just treating visible yellow jacket activity.
Professional yellow jacket removal is much safer than attempting DIY treatment. We use targeted applications that eliminate the colony while minimizing exposure to your family and pets during the yellow jacket control process.
Our technicians wear protective equipment and use professional-grade products designed specifically for yellow jacket colonies. We schedule treatments during optimal times when wasps are less active to reduce the risk of defensive swarming around your Burton property.
We provide clear instructions about keeping children and pets away from treated areas until the colony is eliminated. Our methods are designed to be effective against aggressive yellow jackets while maintaining safety for Burton families and their pets.
DIY yellow jacket treatment is extremely dangerous because these aggressive wasps will swarm and attack when their nest is disturbed. Unlike honey bees that sting once, yellow jackets can sting repeatedly and will pursue perceived threats across your Burton property.
Store-bought sprays rarely eliminate the entire colony, especially the queen and larvae deep inside the nest structure. This leads to continued yellow jacket activity and often makes the remaining wasps more aggressive and defensive than before treatment.
Professional yellow jacket extermination uses specialized equipment and techniques to eliminate the complete colony from a safe distance. We have the protective gear, experience, and professional products needed to handle aggressive yellow jacket colonies without putting your Burton family at risk.
Most yellow jacket colonies are eliminated within 24-48 hours of professional treatment. We can typically schedule yellow jacket removal service within 1-2 days of your call, understanding that aggressive yellow jackets pose an immediate safety threat to Burton families.
The treatment itself takes 30-60 minutes depending on nest size and location. Ground nests and accessible aerial nests respond quickly to professional treatment, while wall voids may require additional time for complete yellow jacket control.
We provide follow-up service if any activity continues after initial treatment. Our goal is complete colony elimination, not temporary reduction, so we return until the yellow jacket problem is fully resolved under our service guarantee.
Yellow jackets don’t reuse old nests, but new queens often return to areas that provided successful nesting sites in previous years. This means Burton properties that had yellow jacket problems before are likely to see activity again without preventive measures.
Each spring, overwintering queens emerge to establish new colonies in favorable locations around Burton. Areas with food sources, water access, and suitable nesting sites around homes tend to attract multiple generations of yellow jacket queens.
Preventive yellow jacket services in early spring can intercept new queens before they establish large, aggressive colonies. We recommend annual inspections and preventive measures for Burton properties with a history of yellow jacket activity to avoid recurring problems during peak season.
