Wasp Control in Fort Collins, CO and Surrounding Areas
Fast, Safe, and Built for Northern Colorado Homes
When wasps start claiming your porch, soffits, or backyard, it’s more than just a nuisance, it’s a safety risk. We know how quickly a calm summer afternoon can turn into a sting-filled scramble. That’s why we offer fast, safe wasp removal that gets the job done without putting your family in harm’s way.
Why Choose Us Instead of a Big Chain?
We live here, work here, and know exactly which wasps tend to build in which neighborhoods. That means no guesswork, just targeted solutions from licensed, insured pros who’ve handled every kind of nest Northern Colorado throws at us.
We’ll give you a clear price estimate before we start, show up when we say we will, and leave you with proof once the nest is gone. No long-term contracts unless you want them, and no disappearing acts once the invoice is paid.
Know Your Stingers: Common Stinging Insects in Northern Colorado
Not all stinging insects play by the same rules, and knowing what’s buzzing around your place helps us treat them right the first time.
- Yellowjackets – Short-tempered and quick to swarm, especially late summer. Often nest underground or in wall voids.
- European Paper Wasps – Slim bodies with long legs dangling in flight. Nests under eaves or light fixtures; less aggressive but risky near doors and play areas.
- Bald-Faced Hornets – Big and bold, with large paper nests hanging from trees or rooflines. They don’t bluff; disturb their nest and they’re quick to defend it.
We’ve been up against them all. Whether it’s a small starter nest or a fully established colony, we identify the species so your treatment is spot-on, not just a “spray and pray.”
Services We Provide
When you call us for wasp trouble, here’s what we can do:
- Emergency nest removal – From underground burrows to attic corners and playset posts.
- Aerial nest removal – Using the right ladders, poles, and timing for safe takedown.
- Entry-point sealing – Blocking soffit gaps, vent screens, and siding cracks to keep them out.
- Yard risk reduction – Tips and minor adjustments that make your outdoor spaces less attractive to wasps.
- Seasonal protection plans – Early spring inspections, peak-summer monitoring, and late-season removal to stay ahead of the problem.
We’re not the “spray and go” type. Every service is tailored to your property and the specific wasps we’re dealing with, so you get results that last.

Safety First: Products, People, and Pets
We treat every wasp job like there are kids and pets in the yard, because most times, there are. Our products are EPA-approved and applied with precision to keep them where they belong, not drifting across your property.
You’ll get clear re-entry guidelines, usually once surfaces are dry, and we’ll explain every precaution before we start. We also suit up in proper protective gear, not just for our safety, but so we can get close enough to do a thorough job without cutting corners.
Local Wasp Season & Activity Calendar
Around here, wasp season doesn’t hit all at once, it creeps in and ramps up:
- Spring: Queens build small nests under eaves or in sheds. Catching them now is quick and painless.
- Summer: Colonies are in full swing, and food sources draw them closer to people.
- Late Summer/Fall: Aggression spikes, especially near outdoor meals and trash bins.
We work with the seasons, tackling nests early when possible, and preparing you for the high-activity months before they turn into high-drama moments.
DIY vs. Pro: Why Professional Wasp Control Is Worth It
A tiny paper wasp nest on the far side of a shed in early spring? Sure, you might handle that yourself, if you’ve got the nerve and the right timing. But for anything bigger, hidden, or buzzing with yellowjackets, it’s not worth the gamble. We’ve got the ladders, gear, protective suits, and targeted products to finish the job without stings, falls, or wasted Saturday afternoons. Your safety, and your peace of mind, are worth calling in the pros.
