yellowjackets as bees but are actually a type of Wasp. The Queen Anne
homeowner was very upset at the number of Yellow Jackets that were swarming
around the house. Yellow jacket removal from both the attic and attached
garage was a job for pest control experts. This much needed professional
service was the job for AMPM Exterminators. A company that did a successful
Little Black Ants pest control service last year for this homeowner and was
no hesitation to call the experts once again.

types of protein. Especially protein sources such as meats and other foods
on the grill, insects and food garbage. The stinging pests even seek out
protein found in bugs. Important to remember that Winter is for the
inseminated queens who tend to reside in attics and walls. Yellow jackets
will attack humans and can be deadly if people have allergic reactions to

Yellow Jackets are very aggressive:

Since the pests do not lose the stinger, it can sting many times.

occur if someone accidentally steps on or hits a nest opening. If a nest is
spotted do not poke, touch or kick it. Mowing lawns can be hazardous
during the late Summer season when colonies are huge. It’s best to call on

Yellowjackets can be unpredictable and very aggressive. Especially in late
summer when the colonies are at the largest. Always look before taking a
drink is because the stinging pests will fly into drinks. Yellowjackets
hunt for sweet foods and drinks like juices, sodas and yes even adult
beverages. Keep all garbage cans and dumpsters covered tightly and away
from eating areas. Yellow Jackets buzz around in the garbage for scraps and
everything sweet. If swarming Yellow Jackets Stay attack stay calm as
possible. Only because flailing movement will cause the yellowjackets to
become even more aggressive. Crushing a yellow jacket is not advisable. The
Yellow Jackets give off an alarm pheromone that alerts others in the area
to attack. Keep children away from overgrown or wooded areas which are
prime nesting sites for yellow jackets. Do not use gasoline to try to
eliminate a yellowjacket nest. This is very dangerous and environmentally
unsound. Especially in the scorching heat here in the Puget Sound right
now. Grass is dry along with trees and foliage. An AMPM Exterminators
technician recommended recurring services for follow up treatments. The
Queen Anne homeowner opted for a three month service for prevention.
