FAQs
Are hornets aggressive?
Hornets, even the larger Asian hornet, are generally less aggressive than the common wasp. However, they can become very aggressive if their nest is threatened or disturbed. Whilst they are not typically aggressive towards humans without provocation, their stings can be painful and may cause allergic reactions. This is why professional hornet nest removal is vital.
How dangerous are hornet nests, and why should I not remove them myself?
Hornets can be very aggressive, especially when their nest is threatened. Attempting to remove a hornet nest without proper equipment and training can provoke the hornets, leading to multiple stings and potential harm. Our hornet nest removal is conducted by expert technicians who have the expertise and protective gear to handle the situation safely.
How can I prevent hornets from building nests on my property in the future?
