What to Expect From Your Orkin Man

Tropical climates tends to bring everyone outside, including stinging pests. While the stings from wasps, bees or scorpions may hurt, they can also cause more serious health issues like painful swelling, infections, nausea, and in some cases even death. Not only do you need to worry about the stinging pests themselves, but also about locating and removing their nesting sites.

You may find a nest on your property, but removing it safely and completely can be difficult. The Orkin Man® can come out and perform an inspection of your yard, home or business. Once he locates their nest, he will treat the pests as well as remove the source.

Stinging Insect Control Down to a Science

We know how to stop the sting.

In the warmer months (May – October), stinging insects buzz around your home, often building nests under ceilings and gutters, or under decks or eaves. It is important to find and seal all cracks and crevices to keep these pests from heading indoors.

Your Orkin Man will look for conditions that invite stinging insects, terminate current infestations, and remove any nests to help prevent future stingers from showing up. Your Orkin Man will know the type and behavior of the stinging insects so he can target his solution to your home or business.

Because of our science, research, technology, and training, stinging pests won’t stand a chance against The Orkin Man®.
