Dead Yellow Jackets in the Basement

A homeowner’s children kept telling their father that they were finding dead yellow jackets in the basement. The father thought that the few yellow jackets that were in the basement simply came in through a window and couldn’t get back out.

It wasn’t until he saw how many dead yellow jackets were in the basement that he knew he had to call a yellow jacket removal expert!

Dead Yellow Jackets inside the house mean BIG trouble

Seeing a few dead yellow jackets every once in a while inside your home is not a big deal. Finding lots of live or dead yellow jackets in your home EVERY day means that there is nest inside the home.

In this case, the homeowner was working on a home project and moved some insulation along the sill in his basement. Luckily he spotted the big yellow jacket nest BEFORE he continued with his project. Had he aggravated the nest, the homeowner could have been seriously injured.

When yellow jackets build their nests inside of homes, they will often have workers that get lost inside of the home. These workers will seek out daylight in order to escape. That is why you will often find the dead yellow jackets at the base of a window or sliding glass door.

When is it time to call a professional yellow jacket exterminator?
