Stinging Insects
Wasp Removal NYC
Paper wasps, yellow jackets, and bald-faced hornets build nests on NYC buildings, in eaves, under decks, and in ground burrows. Wasp stings are painful and potentially dangerous for allergic individuals. Professional removal is essential for nests near high-traffic areas, entrances, and outdoor dining spaces. We remove the nest and apply preventive treatments.

Wasp Removal — Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions our licensed exterminators receive about wasp removal in New York City, including costs, treatment timelines, preparation steps, and what results to expect.
How much does wasp removal cost in NYC?
Wasp Removal is billed at $249/hour flat — the same fully inclusive rate we charge for every pest service. The $249/hour covers all labor, EPA-registered products, treatment methods, entry-point sealing, written plan, and the free re-treatment visit if pests come back. There are no per-room fees, no chemical surcharges, no trip fees, and no contract. You pay only on completion of the work — nothing upfront, no deposit, no card on file. Billed in 15-minute increments after the first hour. It's the only fully inclusive hourly exterminator pricing model in NYC, and it almost always costs less than the inflated flat-rate quotes built around a worst-case version of your problem.
Is it safe to remove a wasp nest myself?
We strongly advise against DIY wasp nest removal. Disturbed wasps become aggressive and can sting multiple times. Professional removal uses protective equipment and targeted treatments to minimize risk. This is especially important for anyone with sting allergies.
When should I have a wasp nest removed?
The best time is early spring when nests are small and colonies are just starting. However, we remove nests year-round. Nests near entrances, walkways, or outdoor dining areas should be removed immediately regardless of size.
Will wasps return after nest removal?
After professional removal, we treat the area with residual products that deter wasps from rebuilding in the same spot. Without treatment, wasps often do return to the same location. Our treatment prevents this.
What's the difference between wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets?
Paper wasps build open umbrella-shaped nests, often under eaves. Hornets build large enclosed nests in trees or on buildings. Yellow jackets often nest underground or in wall voids and are the most aggressive. All are treated differently.
