What's included
What is included in Bee and Wasp Removal
Every job includes species identification, treatment, nest removal where accessible, and sealing of the entry point. Wall void and honeybee jobs include a follow-up visit. Add-ons like additional nest removal on the same property or commercial recurring service are quoted separately before we start.
✓
Species identification
We confirm whether you have honeybees, yellow jackets, paper wasps, or bald-faced hornets before treating. The species determines the product, the timing, and whether removal or relocation is the right call.
✓
Targeted treatment
We apply EPA-registered insecticides and dusts using insecticide sprayers and dust applicators rated for the species. Treatment happens at dusk when workers are inside the nest, which is safer for everyone on the property.
✓
Nest removal and disposal
Where the nest is accessible, we remove the structure, bag it, and dispose of it. Leaving the nest behind attracts new queens and scavengers, so removal is included on every job, not sold as an upgrade.
✓
Entry point sealing
We seal gaps around siding, vents, and utility penetrations with exterior-grade sealants. This is the step that prevents a new colony from using the same entry next season, and it is included on every service call.
✓
Follow-up visit
Wall void and honeybee jobs include a return visit within 7 to 14 days. If any activity remains, we re-treat at no charge. You also get a direct number to call if you see something between visits.
How it works
How our bee and wasp removal process works
01
Phone assessment
We ask where the nest is, how long it has been there, and what the insects look like. That tells us the species and the right equipment before we roll a truck. Most calls take five minutes and you get a price range on the spot.
02
On-site inspection
A licensed technician walks the property, confirms the species, and finds every entry point. We check eaves, soffits, wall voids, and ground burrows, because yellow jackets often nest underground and a single visible hole is rarely the whole story.
03
Treatment and removal
We apply the correct product, wait for the colony to settle, then remove the nest structure and seal the entry. Most exterior nests take 30 to 60 minutes. Wall void jobs can run two to three hours because we need to open and reseal the cavity.
04
Prevention and sealing
Before we leave, we seal gaps around siding, vents, and utility penetrations with sealants rated for exterior use. This is the step that stops the next colony from moving in, and it is included on every job, not sold as an add-on.
05
Follow-up check
We schedule a return visit within 7 to 14 days on wall void and honeybee jobs. If any surviving workers are still active, we re-treat at no extra charge. You get a direct number to call if you see activity between visits.
Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Insecticide sprayers
Used for exterior nest treatment on paper wasps and bald-faced hornets, where a directed spray reaches the nest without soaking surrounding surfaces.
Dust applicators
Used for wall void and ground burrow colonies. Dust drifts into the cavity and reaches workers that a spray cannot touch from the outside.
Thermal imaging cameras
Used to locate honeybee colonies and wall void nests without opening every section of drywall or siding.
Glue boards
Placed near entry points after treatment to monitor for surviving workers and confirm the colony is inactive before we close the job.
Bait stations
Used on follow-up visits when secondary pests like ants move into areas vacated by the wasp colony.
Exterior-grade sealants
Applied to gaps around siding, vents, and utility penetrations to close the entry points that let a new colony move in next season.
Real results
Before and after.
Yellow jacket nest removed from porch ceiling
Before
A homeowner in Downtown Granby could not use the front door for two weeks. Yellow jackets had built a nest inside the porch ceiling, and workers were entering through a gap above the doorframe. DIY spray knocked down a few workers but the colony stayed active.
After
We treated the colony after dusk, removed the nest the next morning, and sealed the entry gap. The homeowner used the front door the same evening. No wasp activity was reported in the 30 days after service.
Honeybee colony removed from wall void
Before
A family near Granby Center heard buzzing inside a kitchen wall and saw bees in the room. The colony had been there for at least a month. Spraying would have left honey and comb inside the wall, which attracts ants and rodents.
After
We located the colony with thermal imaging, opened the wall at the entry point, and removed the bees and comb. The wall was patched and resealed the same day. Follow-up at 10 days confirmed no activity.
Paper wasp nests cleared from barn eaves
Before
A property owner on a rural road outside Granby Center had paper wasp nests under the barn eaves every summer for three years. Spraying the visible nests each June only worked for a few weeks before new nests appeared.
After
We treated and removed every nest along the roofline, then sealed the gaps between the fascia and the siding. Two summers later, the barn has had no new nests and the owner can work in the loft without protective gear.
Problems we solve
Stinging insect problems we solve in Granby
Most calls start the same way: someone got stung, or someone noticed a nest in a spot they cannot safely reach. Here are the problems we handle most often and what happens if they are left alone.

Yellow jackets nesting in a wall void
We locate the entry point, apply dust through the gap, and open the wall only if needed to remove the nest. Then we reseal the cavity and schedule a follow-up visit within 7 to 14 days to confirm the colony is gone.
Honeybees inside a soffit or chimney
We remove the colony and the comb where access allows, then treat the surrounding area for secondary pests. Honeybees are handled differently from wasps, and we explain the plan before we start.
Paper wasp nests under eaves and porch rails
We treat and remove the nest, then apply residual product to the underside of the eave or rail. This is a quick job, usually 30 minutes, and it stops the same spot from being reused next spring.

Customer reviews
What Granby customers say
★★★★★
“Yellow jackets had built a nest inside our porch ceiling and we could not use the front door. They came out the same afternoon, treated it after dusk, and pulled the nest out the next morning. Price was exactly what they quoted on the phone. No wasps since, and they sealed the gap so it will not happen again.”

★★★★★
“I had paper wasps under the eaves of my barn every summer for three years. Pest Control ServePro treated the nest, removed it, and sealed every gap along the roofline. That was two summers ago and I have not seen a single wasp since. Worth every dollar.”

“Honeybees had gotten into a wall void near our kitchen. They explained why spraying was the wrong move and removed the colony without killing them. Took a few hours and they patched the wall when they were done. Professional, clean, and they answered every question I had.”

Lisa T.Homeowner, Granby
✓ VerifiedMost exterior nest removals in Granby run $185 to $350, and wall void or honeybee jobs run $400 to $850 depending on access and colony size. Price includes treatment, nest removal, and sealing the entry point. You get the number before we start, and it does not change on site.
The best company is the one that identifies the species, removes the nest instead of just spraying, and comes back free if the colony reactivates. We have served Granby since 2022, hold a Massachusetts Pesticide Applicator License, and back every job with a 30-day callback. Ask any company you call whether nest removal and entry sealing are included.
Do not spray a nest during the day when workers are active. Wait until dusk or call a licensed technician. We treat the colony after dark, remove the nest structure, and seal the entry gap with exterior sealant. DIY sprays knock down visible workers but leave the nest, and the colony often rebuilds within two weeks.
Yes, when the product is applied correctly. We use EPA-registered insecticides and follow the label re-entry time, usually 30 to 60 minutes after application. Keep pets and kids inside during treatment and for the posted window. Once the area is dry, it is safe to use normally, and we tell you exactly when that is.
