A yellow jacket nest found in a retaining wall in Brookfield required a strategic and careful approach. Our client contacted us after noticing increased yellow jacket activity around their home. Upon inspection, we located the nest within the retaining wall.
Initial Client Inquiry and Inspection
The Brookfield homeowner contacted us after being stung and then noticing a large number of yellow jackets near their property’s retaining wall. Our technician arrived promptly and identified the nest within the wall. Given the nest’s location, we knew that a void treatment would be the most effective solution.
Yellow Jacket Removal Treatment Approach
We employed a dual-treatment strategy for this Brookfield yellow jacket removal project:
Void Treatment: Our technician applied insecticidal dust into the wall’s void, ensuring it was attached to all surfaces within the cavity. As the yellow jackets moved throughout the nest, the dust clung to them, and then, as they groomed themselves, they ingested the dust, causing their death.
Exterior Perimeter Treatment: To control foragers returning to the nest, we treated the outer entrances with a residual liquid insecticide, targeting any yellow jackets attempting to re-enter the area.
