Here in Bangor, ME, queen wasps build their nests in spring. By the end of fall, these colonies reach their maximum size, often housing up to 5000 wasps. So, if you’re dealing with a stinging insect infestation at home, the experts at Pest Wardens can help! We will safely remove hornets, yellow jackets, paper wasps, and other stinging insects without endangering your family or pets. We can also pre-treat your home to discourage these stinging pests from building nests in the first place!
Our Unique Approach To Wasp Control & Nest Removal Service
Calling a professional to help you get rid of hornets, yellow jackets, or paper wasps is your best option, even if you’re comfortable removing them on your own. These stinging insects make nests in tricky spots like the ground, your home’s walls, and other hard-to-reach areas, plus getting rid of them depends on the time of the year.
1. WASP NEST INSPECTION
We’ll perform a thorough inspection of your property, checking for nests under eaves, in the ground, around bushes and trees, and more. Our goal is to locate all nests and identify the wasp species (hornet, yellow jacket, paper wasp, etc.) so we can get rid of these stinging insects for good.
2. KNOCKDOWN NESTS
We’ll use an aerosol spray to treat the wasp nest(s). After a majority of the wasps are dead or have flown away, we’ll remove the nest.
3. KILL EMERGING WASPS
We’ll dust void areas with an insecticide to kill emerging wasps and discourage them from returning next season. This will continue to kill wasps for an extended period of time in areas where the dust is protected.
4. SPRAY FUTURE NESTING AREAS
We’ll spray the wasp infestation (and surrounding area) with a liquid residual insecticide. This treatment not only controls wasps but also prevents these stinging insects from constructing nests in the future.

Yes! For roughly 24 hours, you will see foraging wasps return to their nest, which is no longer there. They may be irritated, so we recommend staying away from this area until there are no more stinging insects. To schedule your wasp nest removal, please call 207-852-3030 today!
Yes, but it’s not something we recommend. It takes special skills to remove stinging insects safely. Hornets and yellow jackets are far more challenging (and dangerous) to remove than paper wasps. So if you decide to treat a nest on your own, please proceed with caution. Follow standard safety protocols like treating the nest at night and wearing a wasp suit sealed at the wrists, ankles, and collar.
We know how scary stumbling upon a wasp nest is. This is especially true if you or a loved one are allergic to wasp stings.

Extremely impressed with the friendly and convenient service. I had Proactive Solutions come to do tick prevention and they came out same day and sprayed my lawn! Earlier this morning my dog had brought in 11 ticks I found on him and my son.. I was anxious to say the least. I gave Pete a call and he was able to spray my yard by the end of the day. I’m so thankful!– Taniele Q.
I can’t say enough great things. I called and they were there in 2 days. The price is the best around. I would recommend them 100 times over.– Amanda L.
Hands down the BEST pest service. I will never use anyone else. Fast and efficient. And super thoughtful of our pets to make sure they stay safe from traps. These guys are like family. Love them!– Chuck B.
100 percent recommend! This company goes above and beyond to make sure you are pest free. They are very responsive and show up right on time! Not only are they getting rid of the nasty mice in my house but they are going to make sure those pesky ants stay away this summer too! Thank you for helping me keep my home safe from these inconveniences.– Jenna D.
Pete’s service is top notch. Took care of our tick problem last year and is doing the same this year. Pete is a great guy. His business is growing and thriving. Please help support his business.– Dan M.
