Dealing with wasps or hornets in your home or business? Essential Pest Control’s wasp and hornet control gets rid of them fast — and keeps them from coming back. Wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets turn aggressive by late summer and pose a real sting risk — especially for anyone with allergies. Our licensed technicians serve homes and businesses across Ohio and Tennessee with family-safe, guaranteed treatments.
Signs You Have Wasps or Hornets
- Visible nests under eaves, decks, or in shrubs
- Steady wasp traffic in and out of a wall or hole
- Aggressive insects near doors, windows, or patios
- A papery nest that grows larger through the summer
How Essential Pest Control Gets Rid of Wasps or Hornets
Every wasp and hornet control job starts with a thorough inspection to find where wasps or hornets are getting in and nesting. We then treat the source with EPA-registered products, set up a protective barrier around your property, and follow up to make sure they’re gone — the same proven, family-safe approach behind our signature 5-step home service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to remove a wasp nest myself?
It’s risky — disturbed colonies swarm and sting. We remove nests safely and treat the site so they can’t rebuild.
Why are wasps worse in late summer?
Colonies peak in size by August and September, so you’ll see far more activity and aggression as the season winds down.
Do you remove hornet and yellow jacket nests too?
Yes. We handle wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets — identifying the species and removing the nest completely.
