Paper Wasp Control in New Braunfels, TX

Why paper wasp matters in New Braunfels #
The biology below applies everywhere paper wasp lives — but what makes New Braunfels its own problem is this:
Paper wasps are easily the single most common stinging insect call we receive from San Antonio to Boerne to Kerrville. I've seen every home get at least one visit each season. In the Hill Country, homes with large outdoor areas often end up with multiple nests during the summer.
About the paper wasp #
Paper wasps are what most folks think of when they hear "wasp." They have long, slender bodies with a noticeably narrow waist. Their legs hang down while they fly, unlike bees. You'll notice they fly slower and more deliberately compared to the quick, darting movements of yellowjackets.

How we treat paper wasp in New Braunfels #
Here's how the job actually runs on a paper wasp call in New Braunfels. We start with a free look — no quote over the phone, because we can't tell what we're dealing with until we see it. Our tech pulls up, walks the property, finds the nest (not always where the customer thinks it is), and we have a five-minute conversation about options before anything gets sprayed.
New queens spend the winter in sheltered spots around your home. That's why sealing attic vents, siding gaps, and eave cavities in the fall and winter is a smart move. It can really help lower the number of colonies you’ll deal with next spring.
