At Drop Dead Pest Solutions we offer comprehensive General Insect Control services with a 90-day warranty, which includes wasp control. But in addition to our ongoing service plans, we also provide one-time treatments to address specific needs:
-Bald-faced hornet nests can appear unexpectedly, and we specialize in their swift removal.
-German yellow jackets, or ground bees, often nest quickly in walls, attics, soffits, and ground voids, and we offer prompt, professional removal of these nests.
-Eastern yellow jackets also tend to emerge rapidly, typically around late June, and we are equipped to remove these nests as well.
Issues From a Sting:
-Pain and Swelling: A wasp sting typically causes immediate pain, redness, and swelling at the site of the sting.
-Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may experience an allergic reaction, which can range from mild to severe. Symptoms include swelling beyond the sting site, difficulty breathing, dizziness, or nausea. Severe allergic reactions can lead immediate medical attention.
-Multiple Stings: Unlike bees, wasps can sting multiple times, injecting venom with each sting.
