Our Chico pest control technicians see all kinds of pests, but the most common types of wasps in Chico are yellow jackets and paper wasps.
Wasps are typically found in sheltered areas where they can build their nests, such as eaves and overhangs found on homes. They are also drawn toward a food supply, so if you have an abundance of flowers or other insects in your yard and around your home, wasps may be attracted to your property.
Chico pest control technicians use different products and techniques to remove wasps. For example, they may use a dust product for yellow jacket nests underground or an aerosol pesticide for nests that are hanging. They will also remove the nests. In cases where the location of a nest is unknown, they will check areas of your property that may be hiding places for the wasps, such as in crawl spaces or walls.
The cost for wasp removal in Chico depends on how many nests are involved and the location and severity of the infestation. You can typically expect to pay anywhere from $100 for small infestations to $1,000 or more for extensive ones with structural damage to your home, and the average is around $375.
The best way to prevent wasps from nesting on your Chico, CA property is to make your home less desirable to them by removing the things they are attracted to, such as compost piles, trash, standing water, or flowering plants right near your home. A pest control technician can also treat the area around your home with a product that will repel them to reduce the chance of re-infestation.
Technically, hornets are classified as a type of wasp, so all hornets are wasps, but not all wasps are hornets. The most obvious difference between hornets and other wasps is their color. Hornets are typically black and white or reddish-brown, and other wasps can be other colors, but the wasps in Chico are typically yellow and black. Hornets are typically larger than most other wasps, and Hornets’ nests tend to be aerial, large, and globular, while other wasps’ nests may be aerial or on the ground.
In Chico and the surrounding areas in Northern California, changes in the weather can bring changes in the types of pests you may see.
As the seasons change, your technician will monitor your property for any pests that are particularly active in those seasons.
For example, in the spring before new pests emerge, it’s a good time to look for and destroy nests or colonies of some pests, such as wasps and ants. And in late summer, mosquitoes and fleas tend to be more active, so there could be an increased activity with those pests.
As your exterminator makes seasonal visits, they will address any potential new infestations by using the appropriate pesticides or preventative methods to remove infestations and get any new pest problems under control right away.
