Our signature service
Stinging insects — bees, yellow jackets, hornets and bumblebees.
Nest work is what Dayton calls Ken Packard for. Species identified on site, the nest located (not just the entry hole), and the void treated and sealed so it isn't reused.
Bees
May–Sep peak
Bees around a Dayton home are usually honey bees in a wall void, carpenter bees drilling eaves and decks, or bumble bees nesting low in mulch and crawl spaces. Correct identification matters — the treatment for each is different, and so is whether the colony should be relocated instead of treated.

Yellow Jackets
Jul–Oct peak
Yellow jackets are the most common emergency call we take in the Miami Valley, and the most dangerous to treat wrong. Colonies build inside wall voids, siding, soffits and old rodent burrows in the yard, then peak in aggression from late July through the first hard frost.
Yellow Jackets removal →Bald-Faced Hornets
Jul–Oct peak
The gray, football-shaped paper nest in a tree, gutter line or porch corner belongs to bald-faced hornets. They defend the nest aggressively for several feet in every direction and will sting repeatedly — this is not a ladder-and-can-of-spray job.
Bald-Faced Hornets removal →Bumblebees
May–Sep peak
Bumblebees nest low — in mulch beds, under sheds and decks, in old rodent burrows and in insulation along crawl spaces. They are valuable pollinators, so the first question on site is always whether the colony can simply be left alone or moved away from foot traffic.
