Frequently Asked Questions — Wasp & Hornet Removal in Chapel Hill

The most common stinging insects in the Triangle are yellow jackets (ground nests and voids), bald-faced hornets (large aerial paper nests, often in trees or under eaves), European hornets (large hornets, cavity nesters), and Eastern paper wasps (small open-comb nests under eaves and in soffits). Each requires a different treatment approach.

Most single-nest removals are completed in 30–60 minutes. Ground nest situations can take longer if the colony is large. We treat the nest, wait for residual kill, then physically remove it when safe. For nests inside wall voids or soffits, access may require opening a small area.

In most cases, yes. CritterGetters offers same-day wasp and hornet removal for active nests. We keep treatment materials stocked in our service vehicles. Call us at (919) 555-0183 in the morning and we’ll aim to be there the same day.

Removing active stinging insect nests without protective equipment and proper materials is dangerous, particularly for bald-faced hornets, which are aggressive and will sting multiple times. If someone in your household is allergic to stings, professional removal is essential. We carry EpiPens on service vehicles as a precaution.

If the nest is fully treated, remaining colony members will die within 24–48 hours. Scouts may return to the nest site for a few days looking for the colony. Physically removing the nest eliminates the pheromone scent that attracts return nesting in the same location. We recommend checking the removal site after 72 hours.
