Know when a sting needs medical help.
Most stings cause pain and swelling at the site. Some people have serious allergic reactions. Get help first, then deal with the nest.
Call 911
Call 911 right away for trouble breathing, swelling of the face, lips, or throat, dizziness, or a fast heartbeat after a sting. Use an epinephrine auto-injector if one has been prescribed.
Call a doctor
Call a doctor for many stings at once, a sting in the mouth or throat, or swelling that keeps spreading.
Call Poison Control
For questions about a sting, call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222. It is free and open around the clock.
Stinging insects common on Loxley properties.
Each one nests differently, so the treatment is different too.
Paper wasps
Open, umbrella-shaped nests under eaves, porch ceilings, barn rafters, and shed overhangs.
Yellow jackets
Often nest in the ground or inside wall voids. Colonies grow through summer and are most defensive in late summer and fall.
Hornets
Large, enclosed paper nests in trees, shrubs, and under eaves. Disturbing one can bring a strong defensive response.
Mud daubers
Build mud tubes on walls, ceilings, and equipment. They rarely sting but make a mess in barns, garages, and sheds.
Carpenter bees
Bore round holes in fascia, decks, fences, and barn wood. Over time the tunnels weaken wood and invite woodpeckers.
Honeybees
We do not treat honeybees. Call a local beekeeper to remove a swarm or hive.
Rural and new-build properties both give them room to build.
Loxley mixes farmland, older homes, and new subdivisions. Wasps and hornets find sheltered spots on all of them.
- Barns, sheds, and pole barns: open rafters and overhangs stay dry and out of the wind.
- Farm equipment and stored items: tractors, trailers, and stacked materials that sit for weeks.
- Porches, eaves, and soffits: the most common place for paper wasp nests on homes.
- Lawns, pastures, and field edges: yellow jackets nest in the ground and are easy to hit with a mower.
- Fences, decks, and wood trim: carpenter bees drill into bare or weathered wood.
- Play sets, grills, and mailboxes: small, sheltered spaces people reach into without looking.

What happens when we come out.
The goal is to deal with the active nest and cut down on the spots they come back to.
Find and identify the nest
We locate the nest and confirm what built it. Honeybees are referred to a beekeeper.
Treat the nest
Our technician treats the nest wearing protective gear. Products are applied as the label directs.
Remove where it makes sense
Reachable nests can be taken down after treatment. Nests inside walls or the ground are treated in place.
Check for other nests
We look at eaves, outbuildings, and other likely spots nearby.
Prevention tips
We point out gaps, bare wood, and sheltered areas to address so fewer nests start.
The right plan depends on the property.
A farm with three outbuildings and a new home with one porch do not need the same visit.
Some nests are not worth the risk.
A small paper wasp nest in the open is one thing. A yellow jacket nest in the ground or a wall is another.
What you can do
- Keep people and pets away from the nest area.
- Mark ground nests so no one mows or walks over them.
- Keep trash, food, and sugary drinks covered outdoors.
- Paint or stain bare wood to discourage carpenter bees.
- Seal gaps in soffits, siding, and around vents.
Call Alabama Termite & Pest Services when
- The nest is in the ground, inside a wall, or high off the ground.
- You see yellow jackets or hornets going in and out of one spot.
- Someone in the home is allergic to stings.
- Nests keep coming back on barns, sheds, or eaves.
- Carpenter bee holes are showing up in fascia, decks, or barn wood.
