Ready Set Spray's Professional Bee & Wasp Management
While bees play a crucial role in our ecosystem as pollinators, and most wasps help control other insect populations, they can pose serious risks when they establish nests near or inside homes. For people with allergies, a single sting can be life-threatening, and even for non-allergic individuals, multiple stings can cause severe reactions.
Ready Set Spray's Bee & Wasp Control service offers professional, humane solutions for managing these stinging insects. We prioritize bee conservation where possible while ensuring your family's safety and comfort around your home and garden.

Our Bee & Wasp Control Approach
Honey Bee Management
As honey bees are essential pollinators and protected in many areas, we prioritize relocation over elimination whenever possible. Our bee management approach includes:
- Professional hive assessment to determine the best course of action
- Collaboration with local beekeepers for safe hive relocation
- Careful extraction of hives from buildings or structures
- Sealing entry points to prevent future colonization
- Property-specific advice for preventing future bee problems
For honey bees, we always attempt relocation unless there is an immediate danger or the hive is inaccessible.
Wasp Control
Wasps can be extremely aggressive and dangerous, particularly European wasps. Our wasp control services include:
- Safe identification and assessment of wasp species and nest locations
- Professional-grade treatments to eliminate the colony
- Complete nest removal after treatment
- Application of residual treatments to prevent new nests
- Safety recommendations to reduce wasp attraction to your property
Never attempt to remove wasp nests yourself, especially European wasp nests, as they can be extremely dangerous when disturbed.

Bee & Wasp Safety Tips
How to minimize your risk of stings and encounters
Stay Calm
If a bee or wasp approaches, stay calm and move slowly away. Rapid movements and swatting can trigger aggressive behavior.
Cover Food & Drinks
When eating outdoors, keep food and sweet drinks covered. Check cans and cups before drinking to ensure no insects have entered.
Avoid Bright Colors
When in areas with high bee or wasp activity, avoid wearing bright colors and floral patterns that may attract them.
Skip the Fragrance
Strong scents from perfumes, colognes, and scented body products can attract bees and wasps, especially floral scents.
Secure Garbage
Use sealed garbage bins and regularly remove trash, especially during summer months when wasp activity increases.
Check Your Property
Regularly inspect your home exterior for signs of nesting. Early detection allows for easier and safer removal.
