Wasps and hornets in Thunder Bay can turn a nice spring or summer day into a real problem, and if you've dealt with them, you know how aggressive they can get. Thunder Bay's cold winters actually give us a bit of a break since these pests die off or go dormant when temperatures drop, but they come back strong once spring arrives. The thing is, wasps and hornets love to build nests around our homes, and in Thunder Bay, they're a moderate but real concern from May through September. If you've spotted a nest near your house or garage, it's worth taking seriously because these insects will defend their territory hard.

About wasps and hornets in Thunder Bay
Wasps and hornets control in Thunder Bay typically runs between 150 and 400 dollars for a single nest removal or treatment, though some jobs cost more depending on where the nest is and how hard it is to reach. If you've got multiple nests or a really established colony, you might be looking at 500 to 800 dollars or more, and emergency same-day service will cost extra. What affects the price is the location of the nest, the type of wasp or hornet, whether removal or extermination is needed, and how quickly you need it done.
