Yellow Jackets Nesting in Outdoor Outlet in Plainsboro, NJ

During a summer treatment service for this Home Protection Plan customer in Plainsboro, NJ we noticed that one of outlets near the deck had an active yellow jackets nest inside it! Yellow jackets are aggressive, territorial wasps, with distinctive yellow-and-black coloration, that are known for their propensity to sting anyone and anything that they perceive as a threat, such as those who venture too close to their nests or their food.

In order to rapidly exterminate the yellow jackets, we used a knockdown aerosol application. Once the yellow jackets were eliminated, we removed the nest, disposed of it, and cleaned the area.
