Bee, Hornet & Wasp Removal & Control
Bees, hornets, and wasps play an important role in the environment, but when they build nests too close to your home or business, they can become dangerous. At Soundview Wildlife Control, we provide safe, professional, and environmentally responsible stinging insect removal throughout Connecticut. Our goal is to protect your family and property while preserving beneficial pollinators whenever possible.
Understanding Bees, Hornets & Wasps
These insects are part of the same family but differ in behavior and temperament:
- Bees are vital pollinators and generally non-aggressive unless threatened.
- Wasps are more territorial and can sting multiple times, often nesting in walls, attics, or eaves.
- Hornets, a type of wasp, are larger and can become very aggressive if their nests are disturbed.
All three species are most active in the warmer months, building nests in trees, sheds, soffits, and other sheltered areas. Their presence near doorways, decks, or play areas poses serious safety concerns.
Signs You Have a Bee, Hornet, or Wasp Problem
- Increased buzzing or swarming near your home or roofline
- Visible nests on eaves, decks, or trees
- Holes or gaps in siding where wasps may be entering
- Aggressive behavior or frequent stings around your property

The Dangers of a Stinging Insect Infestation
While bees are essential to pollination, stings from hornets and wasps can be painful and, for some individuals, life-threatening due to allergic reactions. Large nests near entryways or living spaces increase the risk of accidental encounters. Additionally:
Nesting inside walls or attics can lead to structural damage.
Carpenter bees can bore holes into wood, weakening decks, fences, or trim.
Dead insects and leftover nests can attract other pests if not properly removed.
