Bald-Faced Hornets Hide Well in the Hedges in Parlin, NJ

As this homeowner in Parlin, NJ was trimming his hedges, he was suddenly attacked by a group of bald-faced hornets! After heading inside, he immediately called Cowleys for help and we were sent out. As we inspected the area where the owner was attacked, we spotted their nest hidden very well inside the hedges.

Bald-faced hornets are known to be quite territorial and aggressive. They can actually sense vibrations in the air, remember an intruders face, and sting anyone or anything multiple times because they have smooth stingers. The first thing we did was inject a knockdown dusting application directly into the nest. Several minutes later, we also injected a knockdown liquid application. These treatments will quickly exterminate these aggressive stinging insects.

A few moments later, we removed the nest and disposed of it properly.
