Photo Album: The Beginning of a Bald-Faced Hornets Nest in Somerset, NJ
While treating a property in Somerset, NJ I found a small, yet dangerous, bald-faced hornets' nest on a tree.
Here's the Nest
Here's the bald-faced hornets nest.
Beginning Stages
The nest is in its beginning stages, so it's not that big right now, but give the bald-faced hornets some time and the nest will be larger than a basketball!
Bagged
I applied a knockdown liquid product directly to the nest. This application rapidly eliminates the bald-faced hornets. Once they're gone, I'll bag the nest in order to carefully remove it.
The Nest is Gone
Once I removed the nest, the homeowner mentioned that he will remove the branch the nest was attached to on his own.
