[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]op back with an update. Apparently, the wasps in my house were a brood of yellowjacket queens which overwintered in my house. One or more may or may not have started new nest(s) in my house. The only way to find out is to wait. The expert gave advice about leaving the lights on to draw them out on a dark rainy day. If they are there, they'll come to the light. I have the heebie jeebies now. Oh, to the pps who said to kill them: the expert agrees.[/quote]

The yellowjackets flying around are the queens looking for places to start new nests. Once they find their home, she will stay in and lay eggs. By summertime the eggs will hatch, and worker bees will be all over the place. You need to kill the queens NOW. [/quote]
The queens emerged over the course of a week. I removed 12 of them. I couldn't kill them. If I missed any, they are within my walls and I have to wait and see. I have expert advice here and I'm not going to tear walls apart looking for something that might not be there.[/quote]

Can you share who you used? We are in the same boat.[/quote]
Bee Be Gone. It is a small business. Email and/or use the contact form on the website. He is apparently very busy this spring. It took one week from when I contacted him to when he came over. Fair price and much lower cost than major pest companies who want you to buy a contract and who don't know much about wasps. I think he only goes to Md and Va and not DC, but not sure.[/quote]
