Roofer Gets Stung by Bald-Faced Hornets in Spring Lake, NJ

This homeowner in Spring Lake, NJ was getting her roof repaired and as the roofer was moving to one side of the home, he got attacked by several angry bald-faced hornets! The roofer ran inside and the homeowner called us for help.

When we inspected the home, we found the hornets nest tucked underneath the soffit. No wonder the roofer never saw it!  Bald-faced hornets have white markings on their face and have smooth stingers, which means they can sting an unsuspecting victim over and over again. We grabbed our extendable pole, attached a knockdown aerosol product to it, and then injected it into the nest. We then waited several moments and treated the nest with a knockdown liquid application. Both of these treatments rapidly exterminate the bald-faced hornets.

After a short amount of time we removed the nest, disposed of it, and then treated the area with a residual application to eliminate any returning hornets as well as prevent them from building another nest.
