Wasps in Edina either hibernate or freeze to death in the winter. When the queen wasps wake from hibernation, they will start searching for places to build new nests. This occurs in the late spring and early summer. Our prevention service is designed to prevent the queen wasps from building their nests on the outside of the home. We apply a barrier around the home in the most commonly used nesting locations. This barrier will kill any wasp that lands on it before they can start a new nest.

Using the wrong products on an active wasp nest can be dangerous and may result in hospitalization. We keep homeowners and their families safe by offering professional, science-based services. Our products are not sold at your local hardware stores. They allow the treatment to be carried deep inside any wasp nest to get to the queen. This can take 2 weeks to 30 days to exterminate 100% of the nest, depending on the nest’s size. Any store-bought products will only affect the wasps that fly in and out of the nest
