How We Solve Your Stinging Insect Problem

Not all pest companies go beyond spraying to treat stinging insects. At Fortified Pest Defense, we do things differently. We target nests directly and treat the surrounding areas, breaking the cycle of activity so you aren’t stuck with the same problem a few weeks later.

Here’s what makes our service effective:

  • Nest removal and treatment – We eliminate wasp and hornet nests from eaves, attics, and other areas where they build.
  • Exterior applications – Treatments are applied around entry points and outdoor structures to keep new colonies from starting.
  • Eco-conscious products – We use treatments that are strong against pests but safe around kids, pets, and your living space.
  • Advanced service plans – Ongoing protection is available, so you don’t have to worry about stinging insects coming back each season.

We know how disruptive wasps and hornets can be, so we respond quickly with solutions that stop infestations in their tracks.

Why DIY Nest Removal Is a Risk

Seeing a nest on your property may tempt you to handle it yourself, but stinging insects can be extremely aggressive when threatened. Attempting to spray or knock down a nest often results in painful stings and doesn’t always stop the problem. Professional treatment is the safest and most effective way to deal with these pests.

Here’s why it’s best to leave stinging insect control to us:

  • Trained technicians know how to safely access nests in high or hidden areas.
  • Specialized treatments target the colony instead of just scattering insects.
  • Professional removal lowers the chance of re-infestation.

Our team has the proper protective gear and knows the best methods to deal with different types of stinging insects. We take the time to do the job right, using integrated pest management techniques for a long-lasting solution.
