Exterminators Bees wasps or yellow jackets Extermination

Queen Anne Needs Yellow Jackets Pest Control:


Seattle's Queen Anne area is being infested with Yellow Jackets. This Summer is sweltering and the stinging pests are stinging.  What are these swarms of biting and stinging pests. Yellow Jackets are bright yellow and black and are mostly found outdoors but also can be found in attics, open carports, garages, in residences and other structures. A Queen Anne neighbourhood homeowner discovered that Yellow Jackets are not present only in the Summer. That this could could go on into the Fall. Many people refer to yellowjackets as bees. But Yellow Jackets are actually a type of Wasp. The Queen Anne homeowner was quite alarmed at the number of Yellow Jackets seen around the property. It was definitely time to contact a pest control company. Yellow jacket removal from both the attic and attached garage was a job for the pest control experts. This much needed professional service was the job for AMPM Exterminators. A company that did a successful pest control service for the owner last year.


Yellow Jackets constantly on the move:


Yellow Jackets hunt for sweet foods, sweet liquids and all types of meat. Especially protein sources such as meats on the grill and even food in the garbage. The stinging pests even seek out protein found in bugs.  Important to remember that Winter is for the inseminated queens who tend to reside in attics and walls. Yellow jackets will attack humans and can be deadly if people have allergic reactions to the sting. Keep in mind that yellow jackets can chase humans for hundreds of yards. The yellow jackets stinger does not drop off. Do it yourself methods to get rid of the pests may not be enough to take care of an infestation.  Opt for professional pest control service. Call AMPM Exterminators to get rid of the Yellow Jackets infestation successfully and safely.

Yellow Jackets can be very aggressive:

Yellowjackets are very aggressive. More so than other stinging insects such as Hornets,  Mud Daubers, Bees and Wasps. Yellowjackets can sting and bite. Since the pests do not lose the stinger, it can sting many times.
Yellowjackets vigorously protect the nests. Swarm attacks can and will occur if someone accidentally steps on or hits a nest opening. If a nest is spotted do not poke, touch or kick it.  Mowing lawns can be hazardous during the late Summer season when colonies are huge. It's best to call on a professional pest eliminator. AMPM Exterminators covers many cities in and around Seattle. Such as Bellevue, Federal Way, Kirkland, Sammamish, Magnolia and more.

Precautionary measures:

Yellowjackets can be unpredictable and very aggressive. Especially in late summer when the colonies are at the largest. Always look before taking a drink because the stinging pests will fly into drinks. Yellowjackets hunt for sweet foods and drinks like juices, sodas and yes even adult beverages. Keep all garbage cans and dumpsters covered tightly  and away from eating areas. Yellow Jackets buzz around in the garbage for scraps and everything sweet. If swarming Yellow Jackets attack, stay calm as possible. Flailing movement will cause the yellowjackets to become even more aggressive. Crushing a yellow jacket is not advisable. The Yellow Jackets give off an alarm pheromone that alerts others in the area to attack. Overgrown or wooded areas are prime nesting sites for yellow jackets. Do not use  gasoline to try to eliminate a yellowjacket nest. Especially in the scorching heat here in the Puget Sound right now. Grass is dry as are trees and foliage. An AMPM Exterminators technician recommended recurring services for follow up treatments. The Queen Anne homeowner opted for quarterly services for prevention.

What to do for a Yellow Jacket sting:

Wash the spot with soap and water to remove venom. Apply cold water, icy cold wet cloth or a paste of meat tenderizer and water.
Give the sting victim a pain reliever or antihistamine to reduce swelling
Calamine products help to reduce itching.
Have the sting victim lie down.
Lower the stung arm or leg below the heart.
Do not drink alcohol or take sedatives.
If the sting is to the throat or mouth, Seek Medical Attention immediately. Swelling can lead to suffocation. Know the signs of allergic reactions.
