Bee & Wasp Control in Marlborough

Stinging Insect Control Backed by Service Since 1941

A visible nest beneath an eave and steady insect traffic through siding call for different responses. We provide bee and wasp control for residential and commercial properties, starting with an assessment of the insect, nesting site, and nearby activity. Our licensed and insured technicians can address exposed nests and colonies concealed inside structural spaces.

Don’t disturb a suspected nest or seal an opening that insects are actively using. Keep people and pets away from the area, then let us determine what’s present and where it’s nesting.

Different Stinging Insects Require Different Treatment Plans

Paper wasps, yellow jackets, hornets, carpenter bees, and honey bees have distinct nesting habits. The nest’s location, accessibility, and proximity to entrances or gathering areas also shape the treatment plan.

Common situations we assess include:

  • Paper wasps: Exposed paper nests beneath eaves, decks, railings, and sheltered overhangs.
  • Yellow jackets: Activity from underground nests, exterior gaps, or concealed structural spaces.
  • Bald-faced hornets: Enclosed paper nests attached to trees, shrubs, buildings, or elevated surfaces.
  • Carpenter bees: Repeated activity around round holes bored into exposed wood.
  • Honey bees: Traffic around a structural opening that may lead to a colony inside a cavity.

How We Assess Stinging Insects in Marlborough

We begin by identifying the species and following insect traffic toward the nesting area. We also examine entry points and consider whether the activity is near doors, walkways, play spaces, work areas, or other frequently used parts of the property.

Our service approach can include:

  • Species identification: We determine which stinging insect is active before recommending treatment.
  • Nest-location assessment: We evaluate exposed nests and concealed sites such as soffits, attics, porch ceilings, underground spaces, and wall voids.
  • Targeted application: We choose a treatment suited to the identified insect and its nesting pattern.
  • Prevention guidance: We recommend practical steps for structural gaps, vegetation, and other conditions associated with nesting.
