WATCH: How to Remove a Wasp Nest (Properly)
 
Wasps in Pennsylvania

Wasps do nature a service by feeding on undesirable insect pests, but when they come too close to humans they present a problem. Although they tend to avoid human contact, wasps sometimes build their nests on structures occupied by people. When humans get too close to the nest for comfort, wasps are known to attack with painful stings that cause severe allergic reactions in many people. We never recommend attempting to remove a nest on your own. 

As soon as you see the nest, we suggest taking the following steps:


Keep The Area Clear

Keep all family members and pets clear of the area. If there are toys or lounge chairs nearby, make sure to either remove them or clearly communicate they are off limits.

Act Fast

Call a professional as soon as possible. The longer you wait, the more likely someone can get hurt!
