Wasps
Your home provides your family with a comfortable place to live, but sometimes wasps and hornets feel the same way about your home! Wasps and hornets love to build their nests around the shelter of your home.
Dirt-Daubers build their muddy nests on bricks or stucco. Other wasps build their honeycomb papery nests under eaves or in doorways. Yellow Jackets may build nests underground in your yard. The point is, wasps and hornets love your home.
Getting rid of wasps and hornets can be a dangerous feat, so sometimes it’s best to call in a professional to help. TrueNature Pest Control has been doing wasp and hornet removal for years!
Wasp Removal
TrueNature Pest Control treats wasps and hornets a little differently than most of our competitors. Unlike many other pest companies, we start by removing the nests, even nests as high as 25 feet up!
First, we start with wasp removal. We remove paper wasp nests as well as dirt-dauber or mud-dauber nests. If you currently have a pest control company notice wasp nests that remain between visits, (trust us, this happens all the time!) then it’s time to upgrade your service to a better company.
Our Pest Control for Wasps and Hornets
We don’t stop there. Not only do we take down their nests, but our pest control service also adds treatment to prevent wasps from visiting your home.
We apply a product overhead up into the eaves, fascia, and soffit. We coat these areas to discourage buildup between our visits. We can treat up to 30 feet up! Most other companies skip this step, but we do it every time we come out. If wasps are nesting elsewhere such as in the yard, we will find and eliminate them.
Our Wasp Pest Control Mission!
Our mission is to find the wasp or hornet problem, eliminate the pests, and then create and maintain a barrier around your home to prevent future infestations. We stand behind all our work and provide a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If the pests come back, we come back. Free of charge!
Wasps and Hornets are Pests
Wasps and hornets are considered a pest for a couple of reasons. The most obvious reason is for their ability to provide a painful sting. There is an estimated 1-2 million people in the US who are severely allergic to insect stings, including wasps and hornets.
Another reason these guys are considered a pest is because of their tendency to clutter up your home with their unsightly wasp nests. And we thought bed bugs were a problem. Wasps and hornets are way worse!
If you’d like a little professional insight in the battle against wasps and hornets around your home, TrueNature Pest Control is happy to help you out!
Wasp Control FAQs
Why do wasps and hornets appear in your home all of a sudden? Is there any wasp control method I can do? What about preventive wasp control methods to protect my home in the future? If you feel your pest problem has left you in the dark, our FAQs section will answer all your questions.
What Attracts Wasps and Hornets to my Home?
They see your home as a safe refuge.
There are plenty of insects around your home that serve as a wasp’s food source, such as larvae and grubs.
You have sweet treats and protein-rich food lying around or exposed openly in your trash bin (soda, jam, honey, fruit, eggs, dairy products, and meat)
If you have a bright and floral garden with several flowering plants, expect wasps to find their way to your home thanks to all the nectar and fragrance.
How Does a Professional Pest Control Service Get Rid of Wasps and Hornets?
Professional pest control services are the most effective way to get rid of wasps while keeping your home safe. But how is it done? Here’s what we do to keep your home safe:
Inspect the Area and Find the Source
First, we inspect your home and the surrounding areas infested with wasps or hornets. Identifying the type of species also matters. It could be dirt daubers, mud daubers, hornets, or paper wasps.
Treat the Source
We use a certified and effective treatment to get rid of all the wasps inside the nest. Our technicians wear protective gear to counter any stings or venom.
Apply Additional Treatment If Necessary: Hornet Control
If we find a hornet’s nest in your area, hornet control is a must. Rest assured, our hornet control services follow humane methods and prioritize your safety above all. The treatment needed for wasp removal and wasp control is different for eliminating hornets, which is why inspecting your home beforehand is crucial.
Monitoring and Re-Service If Needed
After treatment, we monitor the area to ensure all wasps and hornets are eliminated. However, if you still notice wasps or hornets in the area, part of our wasp removal in Covington, LA, also includes unlimited re-service. The last thing we want is a job done up to 90%. We guarantee a 100% service to ensure nasty insects stop invading your home. If this happens to you, call TrueNature Pest Control at 985-900-2233, and we’ll solve the issue right away!

Wasp Control Preventive Tips to Keep Wasps Away

Plant wasp-repellent plants like mint, marigold, basil, and geranium
If you have fruit trees, pick up any fallen fruit
Don’t leave pet food outdoors
Seal your compost piles and garbage cans appropriately. Don’t leave any of these exposed
Clean up any food leftovers or scraps immediately
Does Wasp Spray Work?
Wasp spray works, but you should exercise extreme caution when spraying a wasp nest. We recommend spraying at night and at a safe distance, preferably 15 to 20 ft away. Also, wear protective gear ALWAYS.When buying wasp sprays, look for these ingredients:
Prallethin & Lambda
Cypermethrin
Tetramethrin
Cyhalothrin
Phenothrin
Some of the best store-bought wasp sprays include:
Spectracide Wasp & Hornet Spray
Raid Wasp & Hornet Spray
CRC Wasp & Hornet Spray
If you have multiple nests in your home, this can be troubling since some nests might already be in your wall cavity or attic. Call TrueNature Pest Control at 985-900-2233 to get a free quote and we’ll inspect your area to identify the best method for eliminating all the nests.
When Should I Call a Professional?
Call a professional pest control service if:
The nest is too high or too far to reach. Using a ladder is not only dangerous, but it’s also a safety hazard that could lead to a serious accident
You don’t know the type of species you’re dealing with. Red wasps and bald-faced hornets are examples of lethal insects you don’t want to mess with. If you accidentally spray on their nest and it doesn’t kill them, you better be ready to run for your life.
