The College Point Corporate Park industrial and warehouse zone sustains large rodent populations in its loading-dock and waste-management infrastructure; populations migrate into the surrounding residential streets through stormwater infrastructure and utility penetrations.

How we treat stinging insect removal in College Point
An active wasp or hornet nest near a doorway, window or walkway is a genuine hazard — especially for anyone with an allergy. Yellow jackets and hornets are aggressive when their nest is disturbed, and DIY removal often triggers exactly that.
We locate and safely eliminate the nest, including nests tucked into wall voids, eaves, soffits and high on buildings, then remove or treat it so the colony doesn't rebuild. Because active nests are dangerous, we treat them as a priority.
