Wasp and bee removal in San Diego
Yellow jackets and paper wasps build nests in eaves, attics, irrigation boxes, and underground burrows — they're aggressive when disturbed and a nest near a doorway or play area is a real safety problem. Honey bee swarms, on the other hand, deserve different treatment: bees are pollinators in serious decline, and most honey bee jobs can be referred to local beekeepers for live removal. We assess the situation, identify the species, and recommend treatment, removal, or relocation accordingly.

Homeowners who hired us for this
Argentine ant trail came back stronger every time we sprayed. Pest Pros explained why — repellent sprays trigger budding — and used a non-repellent perimeter treatment instead. Trail was visibly thinner in three days, gone in a week. Quarterly service since and we don't see ants anymore.
Buying a 1968 home and the lender required a WDO inspection in 5 days. Pest Pros came out the next morning, did a thorough crawlspace inspection, found localized drywood activity in one eave, and had the report in escrow by end of week. Section 1 cleared after local treatment — saved the closing.
Heard scratching in the attic for a month. Pest Pros found three roof-rat entry points around the eaves — all sealed with steel mesh and caulk — and set traps in the attic. Activity stopped within a week. They came back free at 14 days to confirm no new activity. No upsell.
