What can’t they do? Carpenter bees hover around your deck, your roof, and build up in numbers until you’ve got a significant problem on your property by late summer. While they might look like they’re not up to trouble, they are. They chew holes in unprotected wood such as decks and structures that aren’t stained, painted, or protected.
They can even chew through fascia boards, porches, and sheds. What’s more, they stain your home, create endless holes, and leave a substantial amount of damage in their wake.
Unlike other insects, carpenter bees work alone. They are solitary, and you won’t find a nest. Instead, they tunnel into the wood they have been chewing, lay eggs, then seal them off. Such is the damage that those boards will need to be replaced, at a significant cost to the homeowner. They are not only annoying, but they’re damaging.
Yellowjacket wasps, on the other hand, are aggressive, dangerous, and deadly. A nest can start out with one wasp, and within a matter of weeks, can attract thousands. They attack, sting, chase you down, harass pets, children, and all without provocation. No one is immune to an attack from a Yellowjacket wasp. They hate everyone and everything equally.
These wasps nest in the ground, trees, under decks, in cars and trucks, trash piles, and anywhere you wouldn’t expect to find a nest.
How Does Pest Control Solve the Problem?

Firstly, our trained technicians provide a free inspection for both wasp and bees, checking out the extent of the damage and the problem. If you decide to proceed with treatment, it can be quite a time-consuming task, with lots of manpower required. We have to climb up ladders and find every hole in your home for Carpenter bees. Then we insert powdered chemicals into these holes that remain active even as new eggs hatch. Normally, may need to come back for follow up treatment.
For wasps, we cannot stress enough the importance of enlisting professional pest control services in Massachusetts to tackle the problem. If you see a wasp entering or exiting through a hole in your home, your first instinct would be to use bee spray and kill it. However, their nest is unlikely to be at the entrance. In fact, it can be as much as 20 feet away from the entry point. Therefore, bee spray will only anger them, and could even relocate them to a new area of your home they weren’t in before.
We conduct a free inspection, treat the nests using chemicals, and leave it overnight to provide enough time for the wasps to return. We then remove the nest if possible.
