Bald-Faced Hornets Use the Ladder in West Windsor, NJ
Recently, we were sent out to a home in West Windsor, NJ to treat for hornets. We were informed that the nest was located on the bottom of the customers ladder, so that's where we inspected. As we took a closer look at them, we identified them as bald-faced hornets. Bald-faced hornets are social stinging insects that have white markings on their face. They're EXTREMELY aggressive and territorial. So aggressive that if anyone or anything comes within close proximity of their nest, they will attack! What makes them even scarier is they can actually sense vibrations in the air (when you mow your lawn) and remember their invader's face!
First, we injected a knockdown dusting application into the nest, waited a few moments, and then injected a knockdown aerosol application. Both of these applications quickly exterminate the bald-faced hornets. Several moments after applying these products, we removed the nest and disposed of it properly.
