Why University Heights Has a Hornets Problem
University Heights' mix of classic brick apartment complexes, tree-lined streets near Bronx Community College, and proximity to University Woods creates ideal conditions for hornet nesting in eaves, porches, and tree branches. The neighborhood's older architecture often provides hidden spaces where hornets establish large colonies, requiring professional expertise for safe removal.
Why Choose Us for Hornet Removal in University Heights
Bald-faced hornets and European hornets are aggressive defenders of their nests and can sting multiple times — professional removal with proper protective equipment is essential. We treat the nest entrance and interior with a fast-acting knockdown product to neutralize the colony, wait for activity to cease, then physically remove the paper nest to prevent scavengers and future re-use of the structure. For hornets nesting inside wall voids or attic spaces, we use dust injection into the void to reach the nest without requiring opening the structure. Our 30-day guarantee means if hornet activity is observed in the treated area within a month, we return to assess and re-treat.
