Why Bald-Faced Hornets Are a Threat
Unlike other wasps, bald-faced hornets will defend their nest aggressively if they feel threatened—even from a distance. Their stings are painful and can trigger severe allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Removing a nest without proper tools or safety gear can be dangerous, which is why professional help is essential.
What Do Bald-Faced Hornets Look Like?
- Black bodies with distinctive white markings on their faces
- Larger than most wasps—up to ¾ of an inch in size
- Build large, papery nests often found in trees, shrubs, or under eaves
Their nests can house hundreds of hornets and grow rapidly during the summer months.
Signs of a Bald-Faced Hornet Nest
- Increased hornet activity near trees or outdoor structures
- A visible grey, papery nest hanging from branches, sheds, or under roofs
- Loud buzzing sounds in shaded corners of your property
- Swarms appearing defensive when approached
If you notice these signs, avoid the area and contact our team immediately.
