Seasonal Guide: Fall Wasp Nest Removal & Outdoor Safety Tips

October 7, 2025

For many Colorado residents, autumn means discovering wasp nests in attics, eaves, or around patios as these pests search for shelter and food. At SPLAT! Pest Management, we understand the importance of proactive wasp nest removal for a safer, sting-free fall season. In this seasonal guide, we’ll share expert insights on fall wasp nest removal and practical outdoor safety tips, tailored specifically for our local neighborhoods.


Why Wasps Are a Fall Concern in Denver and Nearby Areas


Wasps such as yellowjackets and paper wasps become more aggressive in the fall. As natural food sources dwindle, they’re drawn to sugary drinks, outdoor meals, and even garbage bins. Their search for warmth often leads them to homes and outdoor spaces, putting families and pets at risk.


In Colorado’s fluctuating fall temperatures, wasp nests are often found:


  • Under eaves, decks, and porches
  • In attics or wall voids
  • Around children’s play equipment
  • Near outdoor lights or garden sheds


Ignoring these nests can invite painful stings, allergic reactions, and property damage. That’s why professional wasp nest removal is crucial for Denver and its surrounding communities.


Signs You Need Professional Wasp Nest Removal This Fall


Identifying a wasp problem early can prevent bigger issues as winter approaches. Here’s what to watch for:


  • Frequent wasp sightings around home entry points
  • Visible paper-like nests on structures or trees
  • Increased wasp activity near outdoor food or trash bins
  • Buzzing noises from attic or walls


If you notice any of these signs, contact a certified wasp nest removal expert like SPLAT! Pest Management. Attempting DIY removal can be dangerous, especially for larger nests or hidden colonies.

  • Seal entry points: Repair gaps, cracks, and screens on windows and doors to keep wasps out.
  • Secure garbage: Use tight-fitting lids and empty bins frequently to prevent attracting wasps.
  • Minimize food exposure: Keep outdoor food and drinks covered, especially during gatherings.
  • Use yellow lightbulbs: Swap standard outdoor bulbs for yellow "bug lights" to deter wasp attraction.
  • Trim vegetation: Maintain shrubs and trees around your home to minimize nesting sites.


When to Call Denver’s Local Wasp Removal Experts


Even with diligent prevention, wasps can still make their way into your home or yard. If you discover a nest or notice persistent wasp activity:
