Pests We Treat Photo Album: Multiple Hornet's Nest Takedown in Jackson, NJ
On the Street in Jackson, NJ
When beginning my inspection, I spotted a nest in a tree that was hanging out on the street. Upon closer inspection, I identified these stinging insects as bald-faced hornets.

I found another nest hanging from a branch in a tree located on the side of the house.
Aggressive Little Guys in Jackson, NJ
And a third nest in a tree by the garage. Bald-faced hornets are territorial and will aggressively sting anything that comes close to their nest. Their nests are grey and paper-like, but they are enclosed unlike the open cone structure of other stinging hornets, like yellowjackets and paper wasps.
Time for Cowleys to Eliminate the problem
Using my extendable pole, I applied an aerosol application directly into the entry hole of each of the nests. This application neutralizes the hornets almost immediately.
Removed and Cleaned by Cowley's Pest Services
After treatment, I used my scraper to remove the nests from the trees and I also removed the branches the nests were attached to and properly disposed of them.
