Our Process
01
Our first step is a meticulous inspection of your Tacoma property, where we identify the specific stinging insect and locate all active or potential nesting sites, from eaves and wall voids to in-ground yellowjacket nests.
Even during a cold Tacoma December, we thoroughly check protected areas like attics and crawlspaces for overwintering queens or old nests, which allows us to diagnose the full extent of the issue and create a precise treatment plan.

Service Types
We tackle stinging insects like yellowjackets, wasps, and hornets with a multi-product approach tailored to each situation. For example, we use PT Wasp Freeze for immediate knockdown on accessible nests, Tempo Dust for wall voids and hard-to-reach areas, and residual treatments like Termidor SC or Bithor SC to prevent returning foragers from re-establishing colonies. Our technicians assess each nest location—whether it’s in your eaves, underground, or hidden in a wall void—and apply the right combination of dusts, aerosols, and liquid treatments to eliminate the threat and keep your Tacoma property safe throughout the season.
We protect Tacoma’s commercial properties from stinging insects including yellowjackets, wasps, and hornets that threaten employee safety and customer experience. Our team services office buildings, warehouses, retail centers, restaurants, and industrial facilities throughout the Tacoma area with customized treatment plans. For example, we combine protective gear application with knockdown dust for accessible nests, strategic void dusting for wall colonies, and residual barrier treatments to prevent returning foragers—ensuring your business stays protected year-round.

FAQs

Yes, our stinging insect treatments are safe for children and pets once the products have fully dried, which typically takes about 60 minutes. We use EPA-registered products and apply them according to strict safety guidelines to protect your family.
For example, when treating yellowjacket nests or wasp colonies, we apply targeted dust and residual treatments to specific areas like eaves, ground nests, or wall voids rather than broadcasting chemicals throughout your property. Most activity is neutralized during our service visit, though some foraging insects may return for up to 72 hours.
During December and winter months, stinging insect activity is minimal in the Pacific Northwest as most colonies have died off, making this an ideal time for preventative treatments and sealing potential nesting sites. We recommend keeping children and pets away from treated areas for 2-3 days after service to ensure complete effectiveness and safety.
