Wasps & Bees in Westchester County
Westchester County homeowners commonly encounter yellow jackets (ground nests, wall voids, eaves — aggressive when disturbed), paper wasps (open-comb nests on eaves/railings), and occasional honeybee swarms on trees or structures. We do not treat honeybees; if a colony is confirmed as honeybees rather than wasps or hornets, we refer the matter to a licensed beekeeper. Yellow jackets require elimination.
Westchester County's wooded communities — Scarsdale, Chappaqua, Armonk, Pleasantville, and Pound Ridge — feature mature trees and older homes with soffits, attic vents, and wall voids that are prime nesting sites for yellow jackets and paper wasps. Aerial hornet nests in trees adjacent to homes are common throughout the county's heavily landscaped neighborhoods. Yellow jacket populations peak August-September, reaching 1,000+ workers per colony.

Colonies grow spring through late summer, peaking August-September when colonies can exceed 1,000 workers. New queens overwinter in protected areas and start new colonies in spring. Late summer is the most dangerous time.
