What Illinois customers say

★★★★★

Groundhog under the shed. Dug out, barrier installed, no return.

★★★★★

Flying squirrels, which apparently are different from grey squirrels in every way that matters. They knew that. The last company did not.

Bee, Wasp & Hornet Removal in Illinois: frequently asked questions

Do you kill honey bees?
No. Honey bee colonies are removed live and relocated to a keeper wherever it is practical. Wasps, hornets and yellowjackets are treated rather than relocated.
There is buzzing inside my wall. What now?
That usually means a colony in the void. It needs opening, the comb and honey removing, and the cavity cleaning, because leftover honey attracts ants, roaches and other bees later.
Can you treat a ground nest in Illinois?
Yes. Yellowjacket ground nests are treated at the entrance, usually at dusk when the colony is inside.
How fast can you come out?
Stinging insect calls near doorways, play areas or anyone with an allergy are prioritised. Call (276) 319-2391 and we will tell you the soonest window.
Will they come back next year?
Wasps do not reuse an old nest, but they do reuse a good location. Proofing the eave or void is what prevents a repeat.
What does wasp nest removal cost in Illinois?
Driven by nest height, access and whether it is inside a wall void. Quoted flat before work starts.
There is an animal inside my house right now. What do I do?
Close interior doors to confine it to one room, open an exterior door or window in that room if you safely can, and keep people and pets away. Do not try to corner or handle it. Call (276) 319-2391 and we will talk you through it.
Do you clean up after the animals?
Yes. Droppings, nesting material, contaminated insulation and odour are all part of the scope. An attic that has been cleared but not cleaned is still a health problem.
