Learn From The Pros

Hornets are an aggressive species of wasp that build their nests under porch eaves, in trees, and in other elevated spaces. If you have a hornet’s nest on your property, it’s important to call a hornet pest control company to come in and handle the situation. The safest thing for you to do is to steer clear of the area until help arrives.

Hornet Pest Control Near You

Hornets are a type of wasp, which if you’ve ever dealt with wasps, you know, can be problematic. What some people might not know is that they are also the largest of the wasp world. These small giants build unique nests, meaning you’ll know for sure which pest you’re dealing with when you see one of these paper mache-like masses; once you do, it’s time to give us a call for hornet pest control.

Stay Away from the Sting

First things first: You should never try to handle a hornet’s nest on your own.

Now that that’s said . . . understanding the behavior of these wasps can help you to keep your family safe from their sting. Hornets are aggressive and protect their nests with a ferocity that rivals a mama bear. Do your best to stay away from the nest until we can arrive to assess the situation, and stay calm. Nothing freaks out a hornet as fast as you freaking out!

Here’s a tip: Hornets hate the smell of peppermint, so you can place peppermint oil (using a bowl of soaked cotton balls or a reed diffuser) near high-traffic areas to deter them and many other pests from entering the area until help arrives.

I had an urgent need with a mouse trapped in a bathroom :-) my neighbor referred me to Kapture and Jordan was terrific. As was Kasha in the office who was very patient and gave me all the details and prices beforehand. I am so grateful that she was able to schedule him for today, and he got the mouse! And he did a whole inspection and will be back in two weeks. The best!

I must say Anmul my rep put me at ease when he gave me his presentation of the company and what they are about. He made it seamless to transition from my old pest control company to Kapture. Today was my first service visit with Kapture. When Chris my service technician arrived at my store he was well put together and told me his action plan for his initial assessment. We talk about my expectations and he did not disappoint. He really knows what he is doing and put me at ease that going with Kapture was the right decision. After his initial assessment he went over everything he did and answered all my questions. I look forward to seeing him for our next visit in a month. Go with Kapture you will not be disappointed.

Chris has become my regular guy and I highly recommend! He started at my buisness location and was very through and took the time to answer lots of wuestions as I had just moved and needed help migrating a current residential issue. He came out and throughly inspected and helped us get an idea how to get this issue under control! His customer service and knowledge on his posistion A+

Kapture Pest Control is head and shoulders above the rest. After hiring two other companies in the past, I assumed their level of service was standard. Kapture proved otherwise. My salesman, Shawn, was knowledgeable and transparent. My technician, Chris, conducted a thorough evaluation and delivered a noticeably more comprehensive service. I also spoke with customer service, and found them to be extremely pleasant and very helpful. I highly recommend Kapture, Shawn, and Chris!

Nathan at Kapture is a real pro. He came, inspected, set traps and bait, and sealed a hole where mice were entering. A week later 7 traps were tripped and we had 6 dead mice. No bait was even disturbed, indicating we got them before they even ate. Since then no activity that I can discern. praying this is the end of a years long issue.

The technician, Temis Scott, came on time and was very thorough. He texted me earlier so I knew what time to expect him. I had to go out just as he came, but my husband showed him the areas that need to be checked, as it was his first time here . He rebaited the traps (which were empty) in the basement & garage and then went outside to complete his work around the perimeter of the house. We were very happy with Temis' work and attitude.
Thank you.

Sincerely,
Lillian Brenwasser

After 1-2 other companies claiming they would ride our yards if rats but with zero success, Shawn came along from Kapture and really cared about our situation, he promised results and actually delivered!! I don’t think anyone else would have gotten all parties involved to agree on one company! His personality for sales is impeccable! Kapture is lucky to have such a great guy on their team.

Got service today! Very professional. I love the way they communicate about the time the will be in my house. The price is also very reasonable. Melvin was very detailed, he also explained to keep my dogs in the room for one hour. Definitely a great choice.
