Signs of a Yellow Jacket Infestation

The most common signs of a yellow jacket infestation include observing these wasps flying around. If you see them on your property, it likely means there is a nest nearby. Yellow jackets form nests in two common ways: below the ground (ground nest) and above ground via a paper nest. Identifying these nests is crucial for effective removal.
  • Ground Nests: These nests cannot be seen, but signs include a high number of yellow jackets entering and exiting the entrance in the ground. Ground nests are usually located around plant roots.
  • Paper Nests: Above-ground nests, often referred to as paper nests, are built in trees, soffits on homes, particularly where the roofline peaks or has corners.

How to Get Rid of Yellow Jackets

Yellow Jackets in the Ground

Getting rid of yellow jacket ground nests is best performed by a professional yellow jacket exterminator. Ground colonies can be large and dangerous, with hundreds of yellow jackets below the surface. Dust treatment is applied to the entry point of the ground nest to exterminate yellow jackets and stop further activity. A quarterly pest control program provides year-round protection against ground nests.

Yellow Jacket Nests on a House

For nests on your house, it is best to call a professional yellow jacket exterminator. If accessible, homeowners can spray the nest with a wasp removal treatment and scrape it off using a telescoping pole. Bull Run Turf & Pest Pest Control can access nests up to 50′ with specialized equipment. Quarterly pest control programs include yellow jacket nest removal up to 30′ on your home.

What Do Yellow Jackets Look Like?

Yellow jackets are bee-sized, black insects with distinct yellow markings on the head and yellow bands around the abdomen. They have large antennae, and their wings fold lengthwise when not in motion. Adults are approximately 5/8″ in length. Don’t let a yellow jacket infestation pose a threat to your property.
