Why Yorktown Heights Has a Hornets Problem
Yorktown Heights' proximity to Franklin D.

Why Choose Us for Hornet Removal in Yorktown Heights
Bald-faced hornets and European hornets are aggressive defenders of their nests and can sting multiple times — professional removal with proper protective equipment is essential. We treat the nest entrance and interior with a fast-acting knockdown product to neutralize the colony, wait for activity to cease, then physically remove the paper nest to prevent scavengers and future re-use of the structure. For hornets nesting inside wall voids or attic spaces, we use dust injection into the void to reach the nest without requiring opening the structure. Our 30-day guarantee means if hornet activity is observed in the treated area within a month, we return to assess and re-treat.

Are hornet removal treatments safe for children and pets in my Yorktown Heights home?▾
Yes, we use EPA-approved products that are safe for families and pets when applied by our licensed professionals. We recommend keeping children and pets indoors during treatment and for 2-3 hours afterward. Our technicians will provide specific safety instructions based on the treatment method used.
What's the difference between hornets, yellow jackets, and wasps?▾
Hornets are larger, typically black and white, and build aerial paper nests in trees or under eaves. Yellow jackets are smaller, yellow and black, and often nest in ground cavities or wall voids. All are aggressive when defending nests, but hornets deliver more painful stings due to their size. Our technicians can identify the species and use the appropriate removal method for your Yorktown Heights property.
