"Pest technician effectively removed wasp nest from roof eave on two-story home. It was very pricy at $490, even compared to other estimates, but the technician was on site, and we wanted the nest gone."

PestNow brand was founded in Virginia in 1995 as Superior Pest Management when four high school friends came together to form their own company. Today, we have multiple locations in three states, and serve thousands of happy customers. We offer pest control; termite treatments and warranties; mosquito, flea & tick control; WDIs (real estate inspections); lawn fertilization & weed control; TAP insulation; and wildlife solutions for homeowners and businesses in the mid-Atlantic.

"PestNow was hired to inspect our house for termites. This was required by the lender of the family buying our house. PestNow found a pile of wood leaning up against a deck column they said needed repair due to termite damage. PestNow also required the entire house be treated. There were no termites found anywhere other than the pile of wood, according to PestNow. They quoted us for over $800 to treat the house. We questioned the need and amount so they lowered it to $580. As a result of PestNow stating they found termites in the deck column, the lender of the buyers required the deck column be repaired due to termite damage. The deck repair company assessed the deck column agreeing it needed to be repaired, but not due to termites, rather moisture. I question whether PestNow found termites at all. Their unethical tactics cost us well over $1,000. Beware of PestNow."

"The work was excellent. Will came for the estimate and was very polite and kind. He explained the process to me and answered my questions. Fortunately, whatever was in my attic vacated before Will arrived so I was able to proceed with repairs without fear of trapping any unfortunate critters inside my attic. All of the work was unobtrusive and remained outside. J.P. and Austin were the ones that did the repairs. I was very happy with the end results! They too were both very kind and polite and addressed all of my questions. For both appointments (estimate and repair), the technicians were on time. They worked very efficiently too. I was very happy that I found a company who could deal with both possible animal removal and the repair of damage caused by animals getting into the attic."

First Solutions Pest and Home Services is family owned and operated with over 15 years of experience in the industry. When considering pest control, safety should always be your priority, especially if you have children and pets at home. 30 Days Guarantee If pests return between treatments, we'll return at no extra charge. And if we're unable to solve your pest problem, we'll refund your last service payment as long as you're a customer.

"The provider set up treatment outside, but the customer has experienced respiratory issues since then and still has rodents and bugs. Despite instructions not to apply anything inside, chemicals appear to have seeped into the floorboards, worsening her health. The provider charged over $4k plus $185 every three months but did not install traps to catch rodents. The customer does not want them to return and reports the basement is in disarray, contributing to the ongoing issues."

My name is Sheldon Faison; I am a home inspector with Faison and Associates Consulting & Environmental Services (FACES).FACES Inspectors are leaders in the home inspection industry. We have over 20 years of experience in the construction and inspecting field. In today’s changing market a strong inspector is needed to teach and advise home buyers in one of the biggest processes of their lives. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration, I am looking forward to hearing from you in the near future. Please call (202) 327-3276 to schedule an appointment.

"Sheldon Faison F.A.C.E.S. LLC served as my inspector during the month of August in regards to closing on my property. Since then -- and barely a month later, I experienced issues in regards to the heating system. I paid to update it and was informed I would need to replace the HVAC unit completely before the end of the year (*this is noticeable because the HVAC unit was perhaps the first thing I inquired with you about but I was told not to worry about it and that the system was still "good"*). Note that this will cost approximately $6,000 - $10,000 in addition to the $1,000 I've already paid. Secondly, we are now in the month of March--I haven't been in my home for a full year and already, there are issues with water leaking from the third floor bathroom unto the living room floor. If one actually looks closely, there appears to be a very obvious bulge in the living room ceiling that was there since the day of closing. I reviewed the report and while it does mention issues with ceiling drywall not being sealed properly, this was not mentioned during the walkthrough and no added importance given to this issue versus less serious issues being given high importance during the walk though despite this inspector placing a great importance on explaining things to the minutiae. There were also issues with the toilet running that resulted in a higher than normal water bill for a few months that I also had to account for and again--this was not mentioned in the inspection report. I am sure there are quite more issues that haven't come to light yet but as a first time homeowner-- it is extremely disappointing to me that these items were not factored in the inspection report as this would have made all the difference in my decision to purchase this home."

FAQs for bee removal projects in Washington DC, DC

Free wasp removal services are rare. Unlike bees, wasps don't produce honey, so beekeepers typically don't collect them. While some organizations might remove wasp nests for medical research, this is uncommon. In most cases, you'll need to pay for wasp nest removal. Check with your local municipality to see if they offer free or low-cost removal services.

Keeping hornets on your property poses serious safety risks. Hornets are aggressive insects that deliver potent venom and trigger severe allergic reactions. Their defensive behavior and larger stingers can cause extremely painful, medically significant stings, especially in populated areas. Although hornets help control specific insect populations, the health hazards they create far exceed any benefits, making their presence dangerous.

You should contact a wasp removal professional as soon as you discover a nest, especially if it's in a high-traffic area on your property. While small nests in open areas might seem manageable for a DIY approach, there's always a risk of stings. For nests in hard-to-reach places like attics or behind walls, it's best to rely on experienced professionals. The optimal time for wasp removal is in the spring when wasps start building nests.

Preventing future wasp or yellow jacket infestations requires proactive deterrence measures. You achieve this by installing fake nests that discourage new colonies, arranging follow-up inspections with a local exterminator, and applying natural repellents—such as vinegar, coffee grounds, and cinnamon—around key entry points. These actions firmly block these stinging insects from establishing nests near your home.

Killing a wasp triggers its alarm pheromones, which immediately signal nearby wasps to converge on the disturbance. This action forces the insect community to become aggressive and increases the risk of multiple stings. Such a response transforms the situation into a hazardous swarm, which is why professional removal is essential.

Wasps do not return to a treated nest because they do not reuse old nests. The treatment removes the chemical cues that once attracted the wasps, and the elimination process clearly disrupts their established territory. As a result, a treated nest effectively discourages new nest construction nearby, ensuring the area remains safe.
