Wasps and hornets build nests in a wide range of spots around a North Smithfield property — eaves, attic vents, ground burrows, dense shrubs — often going unnoticed until activity picks up. Historic triple-decker and multi-family construction is the defining housing type here, most built in the early 20th century.
Nest removal starts with locating every entry and exit point, since a nest treated from only one angle can leave insects able to relocate nearby. For destructive species we eliminate the colony on-site; for honeybees, we coordinate relocation to preserve the colony rather than destroying a beneficial pollinator population.
