A nest or suspicious hornet activity? Don’t wait!
Safe intervention methods exist. It is crucial to locate the nest (roof, tree, hedge) and act without delay to prevent any risk of stings and neutralize the colony before it becomes uncontrollable.
DETECTION
How to detect the presence of a hornet nest near your home?
Often, the nest is hidden high in a treetop, concealed in a dense hedge, or nestled under a roof. The first warning sign should never be ignored: if you notice a surge in large flying insects around your home, a colony has likely settled nearby. Warning: you must observe from a safe distance to avoid triggering a defensive attack by the swarm.
To confirm your suspicions without taking risks, look for these crucial signs of an active nest:
Visual structure: Look for a round or pear-shaped structure with a “papier-mâché” appearance (striated grey or beige). Early in the season (spring), the primary nest may be the size of an orange (often sheltered in a garden shed or garage), while in summer, the secondary nest can grow to the size of a beach ball, often located high up.
Sudden aggression: If you approach an area in your garden (hedge, woodpile) and several insects suddenly rush out to circle you, back away slowly: you are likely inside the security perimeter of a hidden nest.
Targeted air traffic: This is the most reliable clue. Watch to see if multiple hornets are constantly flying back and forth to a specific point (a wall crack, roller shutter housing, a treetop, or a bush). These straight flight paths indicate the entrance to the nest.
Intense buzzing: A large nest generates a low, continuous hum—like a constant vibration—that can be heard from several meters away.
When discovering a hornet nest, waiting is the worst strategy. Unlike other pests, the danger here is immediate and physical. An untreated colony experiences exponential growth: a nest the size of a tennis ball in spring can become a swarm of thousands of individuals weighing up to 10 kg by the end of summer. The longer you wait, the harder the nest is to access, the larger it gets, and the more aggressive the hornets become in defending their territory. Acting at the first signs is the only way to guarantee occupant safety and limit the intervention area. Attempting to destroy a nest yourself is strongly discouraged: without full protective gear and professional-grade knockdown products, you expose yourself to a massive counter-attack from the colony. The presence of an active nest poses serious threats that must not be underestimated. Here are the major dangers associated with a hornet infestation: Disastrous ecological impact: The Asian hornet is a major predator of bees and pollinating insects. Letting a nest proliferate in your garden directly contributes to the decline of local biodiversity and endangers surrounding beehives. Severe health risk (Anaphylactic Shock): This is the most dreaded danger. A single sting can be fatal for an allergic person, causing Quincke’s edema (severe swelling) or cardio-respiratory arrest. Even for a non-allergic person, the quantity of venom injected by multiple stings (hornets can sting repeatedly without losing their stinger) can lead to dangerous toxicity requiring hospitalization. Lightning-fast collective attacks: Hornets, particularly the Asian species, have an acute sense of defense. If the nest is disturbed (vibrations, noise, amateur destruction attempts), they release alarm pheromones triggering a relentless group attack, capable of chasing the intruder for several dozen meters. Danger to pets: Dogs and cats are often the first victims. Curious or playful, they approach low-lying nests (bushes, shelters) and suffer attacks often localized on the nose or inside the mouth, causing rapid suffocation.
Whether an emergency or a simple free quote request. Making contact with our advisors by telephone or by email constitutes the vital first step in the resolution of your hornet nest problem. This advisor will plan with you the free inspection appointment which will determine the next part of the procedure. Response to emails in less than 4h.
INSPECTION
Every intervention starts with a rigorous inspection to detect the presence of a nest and the access to it for complete destruction. This assessment allows us to build a precise action plan combining the capture and the application of specific treatments. This method guarantees a radical elimination, while preserving the safety of all your premises.
TREATMENT
We intervene via the precise injection of insecticides (dusting or spraying) directly into the heart of the nest. These certified products neutralize the swarm instantly while preserving the safety of your family. A single application generally suffices to eliminate the queen and the colony, guaranteeing the immediate and total security of the zone.

Hornet Nest Removal from Nice to Marseille: Rapid and Secure Intervention
In Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, the proliferation of hornets, particularly the Asian hornet (Vespa velutina), has become a real public health issue. A nest near your home, your business, or a school represents an immediate danger. From Nice to Marseille, via Toulon, Cannes, and Aix-en-Provence, our specialized pest control team intervenes urgently to neutralize these pests and secure your environment.
Asian Hornet vs European Hornet: Understanding the Threat
Before any intervention, it is crucial to identify the occupant. Our expert technicians serving the Var (83), Alpes-Maritimes (06), and Bouches-du-Rhône (13) are trained to recognize the specifics of each species:
The Asian Hornet: Smaller, predominantly black with yellow legs. It is highly aggressive if it feels threatened. Its nests can be found high up, but also in low hedges, electrical meter boxes, or under roofs, making them very dangerous during gardening work.
The European Hornet: Larger, resembling a big yellow and black wasp. Although less aggressive, its sting remains painful and dangerous. It often prefers hollow tree trunks or chimneys.
Warning: In both cases, the risk of multiple stings is high. Never approach within 5 meters of an active nest.
Why call a pest control professional?
Attempting to destroy a hornet nest yourself is a mistake that often leads to the emergency room. Unlike classic wasps, hornets attack in a massive group as soon as their nest is disturbed.
Our company guarantees a risk-free intervention thanks to:
Protective equipment: Special sting-proof “hornet” suits that stingers cannot penetrate (standard beekeeper suits are often insufficient against Asian hornets).
Access equipment: Ladders, aerial lifts, and telescopic poles allowing us to reach nests located up to 20 or 30 meters high without having to get physically close.
Professional biocide products: We use powerful insecticide powders injected into the heart of the nest, unavailable to the general public.
Our Intervention Protocol: Total Eradication
Whether you are located on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice, near the Old Port in Marseille, or in the Var hinterland, our method remains infallible.
1. Diagnosis and Securing Upon arrival, we precisely locate the nest and establish a safety perimeter to protect your family, pets, and passersby.
2. Treatment by Injection We proceed with injecting biocide powder directly inside the nest.
For accessible nests, the injection is direct.
For nests at height, we use ultra-precise telescopic poles. The product instantly contaminates the hornets inside. Those outside, upon returning to the nest, contaminate themselves by contact. The colony is generally exterminated within a few hours.
3. Safety Assurance Once the nest is treated, activity ceases rapidly. The queen is eliminated, stopping reproduction and condemning the colony. If the nest is accessible, we can proceed with its removal after ensuring the total inertia of the swarm (often 24h to 48h after treatment).
