Types of Wasps in Oklahoma

Where the nest is usually tells us which wasp you have, and that decides how we treat it.

  • Wasp at a gap in an exterior wall where a nest is hidden
    In the ground or inside a wall

    Yellow jackets

    The most dangerous wasp in Oklahoma. They hide their nests underground or in wall voids, so the colony is often found by accident. Colonies can reach thousands of workers by late summer.

    Stings in numbers
  • Paper wasp nest covered in wasps under a home's eave
    Open comb under eaves and porch ceilings

    Paper wasps and red wasps

    The wasps you see most around OKC homes. Smaller colonies, usually under 100 wasps, but several nests on one roofline is common.

    Stings if disturbed
  • Gray paper ball in trees or soffits

    Hornets

    Bald-faced hornets build enclosed nests that can reach basketball size by fall, and defend a wide area around them.

    Stings in numbers
  • Mud tubes on walls and rafters

    Mud daubers

    Solitary wasps with no colony to defend. Old mud nests can be taken over by other insects, so we remove them.

    Rarely stings

Yellow Jacket Nest Removal in Oklahoma City

Yellow jackets cause most wasp stings in Oklahoma, and they are most aggressive July through October.

Do not try to remove a yellow jacket nest yourself. Ground nests and wall void colonies swarm the moment they are disturbed, and blocking the entrance can push them into your home.

  • Ground nests

    The most common yellow jacket nest in Oklahoma. The small entry hole is easy to step on or mow over during yard work.

  • Wall voids and soffits

    Colonies grow large inside walls, soffits, and attics before anyone notices. We treat directly into the void through the entry point.

  • Under decks and sheds

    Deck boards, shed floors, and crawl space openings are common nest sites across OKC and Edmond.

Hornet Removal in Oklahoma City and Edmond

Hornet nests grow large by fall and are defended aggressively. Here is how they compare to paper wasps.

  • They defend a wide area

    Vibration, noise, or anyone within several feet of the nest can set them off. They sting repeatedly and will chase.

  • Nests grow all summer

    By fall a hornet nest can be the size of a basketball, hanging from a branch, eave, or siding.

  • Remove empty nests in winter

    Colonies die off in winter but leave the nest behind. Removing it makes new spring activity easy to spot.

  • Location and height

    Low eaves are quickest. Second-story soffits, ground nests, and wall voids take more time and equipment.

  • Species and colony size

    A yellow jacket ground nest or big hornet colony takes more than a small paper wasp nest. Late-season colonies are much larger.

  • Number of nests

    Paper wasps often build several nests on one roofline. We find them all and quote them together.

  • One-time or recurring

    If wasps come back every year, a recurring plan usually costs less.

Small nests are covered on recurring plans

On a plan, small standard nests are removed during your regular service at no extra charge. Ground nests, wall voids, and large hornet colonies are quoted separately, starting at $150.

Our Wasp Nest Removal Process

The same 3 steps for every wasp, anywhere in Oklahoma City and Edmond.

  1. Find every nest

    We check eaves, soffits, wall voids, ground openings, trees, and sheds, identify the species, and locate every active nest before treating.

  2. Treat the nest directly

    Professional products go directly into the nest, or into the entry hole for ground nests and wall voids. Keep pets and kids clear for 30 to 60 minutes.

  3. Remove and report

    Once the colony is dead, we remove the nest where it is safely accessible and text you a report of what we found and treated.

How much does wasp nest removal cost in Oklahoma City?
Wasp nest removal starts at $150 for a simple, accessible nest. Hard-to-reach nests, yellow jacket ground nests, wall voids, and large hornet colonies cost more, and we quote the exact price before we start. On a recurring plan, small standard nests are removed during regular service at no extra charge.
How quickly can you remove a wasp nest?
We prioritize active wasp nests and often offer same-day or next-day service across Oklahoma City, Edmond, Moore, Yukon, Midwest City, Del City, and nearby communities. Call or text (405) 696-7299 for the fastest scheduling.
Do you remove yellow jacket nests in the ground?
Yes. Underground yellow jacket colonies are one of the most dangerous situations for OKC homeowners, and we treat them with professional equipment and products. Do not try to treat or block the entrance yourself, because disturbing the nest triggers an immediate swarm.
What types of wasps are common in Oklahoma City?
The most common wasps in Oklahoma City and Edmond are paper wasps (including red wasps), yellow jackets, hornets, and mud daubers. Yellow jackets are the most aggressive and often nest underground or in wall voids. Paper wasps are the most visible, building open nests under eaves and porch ceilings.
Can wasps come back after treatment?
Yes. Wasps build new nests every season and new queens arrive from surrounding areas. We eliminate the active nest completely, but no treatment can stop new wasps from scouting your property the next spring. On a recurring plan, new small standard nests are removed during your regular service at no extra charge.
Is wasp treatment safe for pets and children?
We apply products directly into the nest to limit exposure. Keep pets and children away from the treated area during application and until it dries, typically 30 to 60 minutes. We will go over precautions before starting.
Do you remove the nest after treating it?
Yes. Once the colony is eliminated, we knock down and remove the nest wherever it is safely accessible. Nests inside wall voids or underground are treated in place.
