Under the Soffit is a Big Bald-Faced Hornets Nest in Allenwood, NJ

Challenge

As this homeowner in Allenwood, NJ was sitting on her back deck she was suddenly attacked by a number of hornets! She quickly ran inside and called Cowleys for help. Once we arrived we equipped our protective bee suits and began our investigation. Minutes into looking around the area, we spotted a bald-faced hornets nest underneath the soffit right above the seating area.

These stinging insects are extremely aggressive and won't waste a single moment to attack or sting anyone or anything that comes close to their nest! They sting carries a venom that makes the stings hurt, itch, and swell for about 24 hours!

Solution

First, we treated the nest with a knockdown aerosol application. After a few moments had passed, we then treated it with a knockdown dusting product. Both of these treatments will quickly exterminate the bald-faced hornets. After some time had passed we removed the nest, disposed of it, and then applied a liquid residual to the area. This is going to eliminate any bald-faced hornets, and other stinging insects, that return to this area as well as prevent them from building another nest.
