 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently worked with Angel after finding a pretty major issue when selling my home.  He was professional and sincere and I trusted his take on the issue and how best to resolve.  He was not trying to include scope that was not necessary and I greatly appreciated that.  He put me at ease and worked within a quick turn around time to make it happen.  It is rare you feel like you can trust someone in these types of indistries these days and Angel certainly earned my trust and my ongoing business with my new home.   Truly apprecaited!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They keep pests away and they always return if you see more. Our bug guy is very sweet and cute. They are a bit expensive but in the long run it is worth it!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have been using Croach since we moved into our home about 6 years ago. They come out quarterly to do their normal thing and always show up when they say they're going to. Additionally, we've had to call them several times in between our regular service (once for wasps, once for ants in our house, once for mice in our garage) and they have always been able to come out quickly and fixed our issue to our satisfaction. After having the same technician for several years (he has left the company), today was our first experience with CJ. He was friendly, listened to our needs, and was able to complete the work quickly and efficiently! Thanks CJ!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our technician, Josh,  was on time and very courteous. We have had a problem with ants in the house this time every year and he knew how to take care of them without the materials used being toxic to our dog. Thank you Josh!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently we had a rodent issue and contacted some companies but they could not locate the correct position or had no idea of what exact animal it was. I decided to try Croach since they offer free inspection. Cassie came on time and found the possible entrances which I was convinced. She set up the traps which caught rodents the next day and sealed off entrances. She is so patient to answer all my questions and responsive to my messages even during none business hours. She is careful and very professional on the job. I am very grateful.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AngelGT, a member of the Croach Team, conducted a thorough analysis  of my house last week to seek out entry points for rodents, which had recently appeared.  This week Angel returned and successfully sealed off all the holes.  I am impressed by his professionalism and willingness to explain every step of the process.  He is courteous and dedicated to his work and his company.  I am very grateful.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've been using Croach for years now and my husband and I are very happy with the service they provide. Today, David came out and treated the outside and inside the garage for seasonal spiders. He made sure to advise us not to let our dog out for about an hour. He also made sure to ask if there was anything else we needed. Really appreciate the good job he did and the professionalism!

Why Are Wasps Such a Problem in Seattle?

Seattle’s climate plays a big role in wasp activity:

Mild springs and summers allow colonies to grow steadily
Abundant greenery and gardens provide food sources
Urban + natural environments create ideal nesting opportunities
Outdoor living spaces attract wasps searching for food and sugar

Wasps are more aggressive than bees and can sting multiple times, especially when their nest is disturbed. They become most active in Seattle during the late summer and early fall, when colonies are at peak size, and food becomes more scarce.

Attempting to remove a nest yourself can be dangerous without proper equipment and experience. Professional removal significantly reduces risk and ensures the problem is handled completely.

Common Wasps Found in Seattle

Seattle homeowners most often encounter yellow jackets, paper wasps, hornets, and mud daubers. These species often nest in rooflines, crawl spaces, wall voids, trees, and underground areas.

Yellow Jackets are highly aggressive and territorial. They are frequently found in yards, gardens, or near foundations. They can even nest underground or in wall voids.
Bald-Faced Hornets are highly defensive of their nests and can become dangerous if disturbed. They build large, enclosed aerial nests in trees, sheds, or pergolas.
Paper wasps build umbrella-shaped nests under eaves and overhangs of Seattle homes. They are less aggressive than hornets or yellow jackets, but will still sting if threatened.
Mud Daubers are solitary wasps that build unsightly mud nests around garages, sheds, and covered outdoor areas. They are less aggressive but still a nuisance.

The Croach® Wasp Control Process

Croach® Pest Control takes a strategic and comprehensive approach to wasp control to ensure your home remains pest-free.

Step 1: In-Depth Inspection & Custom Plan
Our licensed technicians begin by examining your property in detail, locating nests, identifying species, and assessing risk areas around your home.

Step 2: Wasp Treatments & Nest Removal
We apply professional-grade treatments directly to the nest, ensuring complete colony eradication.
Our treatment eliminates wasps quickly while minimizing risk to your family and pets. After treatment, we remove and dispose of hanging nests to prevent wasps from returning.

Step 3: Exclusion
Because wasps tend to return to familiar nesting sites, we take proactive steps to block off access points before the next nesting season.

Step 4: Long-Term Prevention
To get rid of wasps for good, our scheduled pest control services help disrupt breeding cycles and eliminate food sources that attract wasps, like ants, spiders, and other insects.
