Stinging Insects
Wasp Removal Philadelphia
Paper wasps, yellow jackets, and bald-faced hornets build nests on Philadelphia buildings, in eaves, under decks, and in ground burrows. Wasp stings are painful and potentially dangerous for allergic individuals. Professional removal is essential for nests near high-traffic areas, entrances, and outdoor dining spaces. We remove the nest and apply preventive treatments.

FAQ
Wasp Removal — Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions our licensed exterminators receive about wasp removal in Philadelphia, including costs, treatment timelines, preparation steps, and what results to expect.
How much does wasp removal cost in Philadelphia?
Wasp Removal is billed at a flat $199/hr, 1-hour minimum, no matter the pest type or severity. Every job includes an inspection and an upfront estimate before any work begins — the rate never changes based on what we find.
Is it safe to remove a wasp nest myself?
We strongly advise against DIY wasp nest removal. Disturbed wasps become aggressive and can sting multiple times. Professional removal uses protective equipment and targeted treatments to minimize risk. This is especially important for anyone with sting allergies.
When should I have a wasp nest removed?
The best time is early spring when nests are small and colonies are just starting. However, we remove nests year-round. Nests near entrances, walkways, or outdoor dining areas should be removed immediately regardless of size.
Will wasps return after nest removal?
After professional removal, we treat the area with residual products that deter wasps from rebuilding in the same spot. Without treatment, wasps often do return to the same location. Our treatment prevents this.
What's the difference between wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets?
Paper wasps build open umbrella-shaped nests, often under eaves. Hornets build large enclosed nests in trees or on buildings. Yellow jackets often nest underground or in wall voids and are the most aggressive. All are treated differently.
