Controlling Wasps In Modesto, Oakdale, & Manteca Since 1998
There are many varieties of wasps, including paper, fig, cuckoo and parasitoid. But when you mention a wasp in Central Valley, people are picturing a yellow jacket. They are not just an annoying flying insect somewhere between an ant and a bee, but the fact that they can sting again and again without doing harm to themselves puts them in a vermin category all by themselves.
We might not notice the beginning of a nest, starting with one of two yellow jackets, but when they start building their nest it is almost too late. They can become very aggressive, and present a medical issue when they sting small children or pets. They can even cause death as a result of anaphylactic shock, so it is best to avoid them all together. A simple call or e-mail to Onstar Pest Control can control your infestation, and our monthly or bi-monthly maintenance programs can keep them that way.
Please note that controlling wasps on your property will not control a nest located on a neighbors property. Do yourself and your neighbor a favor, and tell him that you had success with Onstar and you wanted to share the secret with him. Pretty soon the word should get around the entire neighborhood and you can all enjoy outdoor activities more.
One of the best aspects of living in Modesto, Manteca, Turlock or Oakdale, outdoor living is something everyone enjoys. Having a backyard BBQ with friends and family in the California sunshine is just great, until the aggressive yellow jackets start to swarm around your hamburgers, sodas and sliced tomatoes and they let you know that you are in their way.
The typical yellow jacket has contrasting bands of black and yellow stripes and a very smooth body. The term wasp-waist refers to the delicate narrow middle that they have. Their nests can be found among your trees,. under your eaves, inside your attics or under your porches. In fact, they can be found almost anywhere. By the time they have built a nest, they can number in the hundreds. Eradicating and then controlling them is the only truly safe thing to do with this poisonous flying pest.
Since they can attack in sufficient numbers to do damage to even the sturdiest physique, this is one insect you really should leave to the experts. It is definitely not a do it yourself project. Our state approved and regulated material will eradicate the yellow jackets, and one of our monthly or bi-monthly maintenance programs will keep them away. Save yourself some potentially dangerous stings and call or e-mail us today.

Differences from Bees
"Wasps are distinguishable from bees by their pointed lower abdomens and the narrow "waist," called a petiole, that separates the abdomen from the thorax.
They come in every color imaginable, from the familiar yellow to brown, metallic blue, and bright red. Generally, the brighter colored species are in the Vespidae, or stinging wasp, family.
All wasps build nests. Whereas bees secrete a waxy substance to construct their nests, wasps create their familiar papery abodes from wood fibers scraped with their hard mandibles and chewed into a pulp"
