Why Bee and Wasp Removal Matters
Bees and wasps around your home or workplace can create real problems. Avoiding the issue often leads to more aggressive behavior, larger nests, or unnecessary risks to people and pets.
- Protects Against Stings - Both bees and wasps can sting when disturbed. Some individuals react severely and may require medical help after even one sting.
- Avoids Damage to Property - These insects build nests in walls, rooflines, and hidden areas. Over time, this activity can cause damage or attract other pests.
Regular inspections and quick action help limit these risks. Controlling activity early reduces the chance of spreading nests and keeps outdoor areas safe for family, guests, and pets.
How We Remove Bees and Wasps in Boise
We use a step-by-step process to make sure your space stays safe:
- Inspection - We start by checking your property for nests, entry points, and high-traffic zones.
- Treatment - Our team removes nests and applies products to eliminate the insects. We aim to stop the current issue while reducing the chances of another one.
- Ongoing Support - After treatment, we offer tips and services to prevent new nesting. We may suggest sealing entry points, adjusting landscaping, or removing attractants like food or standing water.

Bee & Wasp Activity in Boise’s Landscape
Boise's mix of developed neighborhoods and natural areas invites bee and wasp nesting. Warm months, blooming flowers, and accessible shelter help populations grow quickly.
Outdoor seating areas, gardens, and garages often become hotspots. By recognizing seasonal patterns, our team adjusts treatment strategies to fit the environment and limit recurring problems.
We also support local awareness efforts and encourage neighbors to share information about nesting behavior and prevention. These actions strengthen community efforts to manage pests more effectively.
Frequently Asked Questions About Wasp and Bee Removal
How can I tell if I have a wasp or a bee problem?
While both wasps and bees may appear similar at first glance, there are key differences. Bees are generally rounder, hairier, and more focused on pollinating flowers, while wasps have slimmer, shinier bodies and are more aggressive, often scavenging for food. If you’re noticing increased insect activity near your home, visible nests, or buzzing sounds coming from walls or rooflines, it’s best to have a professional inspection to accurately identify the issue and determine the safest solution.
Are bees protected, and can they be removed safely?
Yes, many bee species are important pollinators and are often protected under environmental regulations. At Pestcom Pest Management, we prioritize the safe and humane removal of bees whenever possible. If a bee colony is in a problematic location—like inside your home’s walls or near high-traffic areas—we work with local beekeepers or use safe relocation techniques to move the hive without harming the bees. We’re committed to protecting both your home and the ecosystem.
What should I do if I find a nest on my property?
If you spot a wasp nest or bee hive, it’s important not to disturb it. Agitating the nest can provoke stings and lead to serious injury, especially if someone nearby is allergic. Stay at a safe distance and contact our team right away. We’ll evaluate the nest’s location, identify the species, and determine the best course of action for safe removal or relocation.
How does your service ensure safe wasp and bee removal?
We use proven methods and eco-friendly products that eliminate wasps while minimizing harm to non-target species. When it comes to bees, we avoid extermination whenever possible and prioritize relocation methods that preserve the colony. All work is carried out by trained technicians with the proper gear and safety protocols, ensuring a smooth, risk-free process for your family, pets, and neighbors.
Will bees or wasps come back after removal?
After removal, there is always a chance of new colonies forming, especially during peak seasons. That’s why our services include preventive recommendations like sealing entry points, removing attractants, and identifying conditions that could lead to future infestations. With our guidance and, if needed, follow-up treatments, you can enjoy longer-lasting protection.
Is professional removal really necessary?
Absolutely. Whether you're dealing with aggressive wasps or nesting bees, trying to handle the situation on your own can be dangerous. Professionals like us not only have the knowledge to safely remove these pests but also ensure that the root of the problem is addressed. We also help you prevent re-infestations—something most DIY methods simply can’t guarantee.
How soon will I see results after treatment?
With wasps, activity often drops within a few hours of treatment, and full results are typically seen in a day or two. Bee relocations may take a little longer, especially if we’re coordinating with a beekeeper, but the removal is usually completed within one visit. Either way, our team ensures clear communication throughout the process and follows up as needed to confirm the issue is fully resolved.

How do I get rid of Boxelder Bugs?Boxelder bugs seem to invade every home in the fall. This is because they are trying to escape the cold and cling to the last couple of months they have left. So, to keep them out of your home you are going to need to block entraces. That means repairing screen doors and sealing up cracks in your foundation.
-
Why do I need a pest service in the winter?A lot of people think that bugs and other pests die during the winter but this isn't true. Pests act like snowbirds that drive down to St. George, Utah, or Pheonix, Arizona in the winter — they hate the cold. But instead of traveling thousands of miles, they travel into your walls. If an infestation is left all winter, it can create a huge problem in spring once the weather starts to warm up.

How do I know if I have bed bugs?The easiest way to determine if you have bed bugs or not is to give us a call and request an inspection. But, if you are looking to check on your own, then you are going to want to remove all of the sheets from your beds. Once this is done, you can take a look at the seams in your mattress. Bed bugs often leave droppings behind and they'll get caught in the seams.
