My company's Goals were defined as follows: I was born and raised in the Southern Tier of New York State. I have worked for the past twelve years in two major local pest control firms. I have attended all required New York State courses and currently hold licenses in both New York and Pennsylvania. About six years ago, I decided to strike out on my own and present an honest, knowledgeable and friendly answer to your Pest Control needs. I am anxious to make a name for myself and make those three words my Calling Card. As you will see, my fees are reasonable and my work is prompt and efficient.

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Any tree that emits a sap or resin can attract yellow jackets. They are particularly attracted to the tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima), which emits a sweet sap that both yellow jackets and spotted lanternflies love.

No, ground bees are not detrimental to the health of your lawn. In fact, the small holes created by ground bees can actually offer beneficial aeration which moisturizes and nourishes the ground. Additionally, ground bees are highly regarded as vital pollinators, meaning they help plants to reproduce. Unless you’re battling a severe infestation, leaving ground bees undisturbed can boost the health of your yard and the environment.

Professional removal preserves bee populations and ensures safe, effective hive relocation, protecting you from stings.

If you seal bees in a wall and don’t leave them any way to escape, they may make one of their own. Otherwise, they’ll die inside the wall, and that creates many additional problems. It takes a long time, and the bees will start rotting, which can make your home smell miserable. All the dead bees and any honeycombs they may have created will also attract a number of bugs or other pests to your home. That’s why we suggest removing the bees entirely, and not trying to seal them away.

Probably not. Many imitation nests are meant to be hung from trees or other tall places, but not all yellow jackets nest up high—most species, such as the common yellow jacket and the southern yellow jacket, build nests in the ground.
