Wasp & Hornet Removal in Canby, OR
Wasp & Hornet Removal in Canby, OR
Canby's blend of older homes, small farms, and mature tree cover creates plenty of appeal for stinging insects. Wooden barn rafters, covered porches, and the thick maples and firs common throughout town give paper wasps and bald-faced hornets ideal spots to build, while the loose soils of local gardens and pastures draw ground-nesting yellowjackets. From spring through early fall, our technicians handle removal calls all across Canby — from neighborhoods off Highway 99E to properties out toward the Molalla River.
Timing matters with wasps and hornets. A nest that starts as a golf-ball-sized structure in June can house hundreds of aggressive workers by late summer, and yellowjacket colonies get notably more hostile as fall approaches. That's why we encourage Canby residents to act at the first sign of activity rather than waiting to see if the problem resolves itself. If you're finding wasps hovering near your eaves, spotting gray papery nests in trees or shrubs, or noticing yellowjackets streaming in and out of a hole in the ground, give us a call and we'll take it from there.
When wasps or hornets set up shop under your eaves or in your Canby backyard, everyday routines get complicated fast. Barbecues on the deck, gardening along the fence line, or just walking out to the car can turn into a risky game of dodge. Our licensed technicians remove nests safely and completely, so you can get back to enjoying your property without looking over your shoulder.
We handle paper wasps, yellowjackets, bald-faced hornets, and more throughout the Canby area. Whether the nest is tucked into a shed raft, hanging from a maple branch, or buried in the ground near your garden beds, we have the equipment and experience to remove it the right way — the first time.

Our Wasp & Hornet Removal Process
- Inspect & Identify We locate every nest on the property and identify the species. Yellowjackets, paper wasps, and hornets each require a different removal approach.
- Treat The Nest Using professional-grade products and protective gear, we treat the colony directly — typically at dawn or dusk when the insects are inside and less active.
- Remove The Nest Once the colony is eliminated, we physically remove the nest and dispose of it, so no lingering pheromones attract a new queen to the same spot.
- Prevent & Protect We finish with practical prevention tips and can apply targeted deterrents to common nesting spots like eaves, sheds, and deck overhangs around your home.
