Why Wasps and Hornets Are a Serious Threat

Wasps and hornets don’t just annoy—they can be dangerous, especially when disturbed or provoked.

Here’s why you shouldn’t try to remove a nest on your own:

  • ⚠️ Painful stings: Unlike bees, wasps and hornets can sting multiple times

  • 🤧 Allergic reactions: Stings can cause severe allergic responses, including anaphylaxis

  • 🛑 Aggressive swarms: Disturbing the nest may trigger dozens of wasps to attack at once 

  • 🏠 Nest expansion: Nests grow rapidly in summer and can cause damage to siding, attics, or eaves
     

Common Wasp and Hornet Nest Locations in Toronto Homes

In Toronto and the GTA, wasps and hornets commonly build nests in:

  • Under roof eaves or soffits 

  • Inside sheds, garages, and attics 

  • Behind siding or inside wall voids 

  • On trees, fences, or play structures 

  • Beneath decks, patios, or staircases 

If you see a nest—or increased wasp activity—do not attempt to spray or knock it down yourself.

Wasp vs. Hornet: What’s the Difference?

  • Wasps (e.g., yellowjackets) are slim, with a narrow waist and bright yellow coloring. They're more likely to forage for food around people and garbage.
     

  • Hornets are a type of wasp, typically larger and more aggressive, often building aerial nests in trees or high structures.
     

Both can be highly territorial and dangerous when provoked.

Our Professional Wasp & Hornet Nest Removal Process

At 9 Squad, we take a safe and strategic approach to eliminate the entire colony, not just the visible nest.

Here’s how we handle it:

On-site inspection to identify the species and location of the nest
Protective equipment and safe distancing from your home, family, and pets
Specialized insecticide dust and sprays designed for wasps and hornets
Full removal or neutralization of the nest when safe and possible
Prevention tips to reduce the chance of re-nesting

Most treatments are completed in under 1 hour, and we’ll ensure your property is safe before we leave.

How to Prevent Wasps and Hornets Around Your Property

While it's impossible to fully prevent wasps outdoors, you can reduce attraction by:

  • Keeping garbage bins sealed and clean 

  • Removing fallen fruit or sugary spills 

  • Avoiding perfume and scented lotions during peak hours 

  • Sealing cracks in siding, soffits, and eaves 

  • Covering food and drinks during outdoor gatherings 

Still, if a nest has formed, it’s time to call in the professionals.
