Comprehensive Wasp, Hornet, and Yellow Jacket Control in Boise, ID
Keep Stinging Insects Away – Safely & Effectively
Wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets are some of the most aggressive pests you can encounter on your property. Their painful stings can trigger severe allergic reactions in some individuals and make outdoor areas unsafe for children, pets, and guests. Nests hidden under eaves, in walls, or buried in the ground can quickly escalate into dangerous situations if not handled by professionals.
In Boise and throughout the Treasure Valley, stinging insect activity peaks during the warmer months as they forage for food and build new nests. DIY removal is risky and often leads to multiple stings or incomplete nest elimination, allowing colonies to rebuild.
At Wild West Pest Control, we specialize in safe and effective stinging insect control. Our trained technicians locate nests, remove active colonies, and provide prevention strategies to reduce future infestations—all while using family- and pet-friendly treatments for your peace of mind.

Professional Stinging Insect Control in Boise & the Treasure Valley
Protect Your Family and Property from Wasps, Hornets & Yellow Jackets
Stinging insects like wasps, hornets, yellow jackets, and paper wasps can turn outdoor spaces into dangerous zones. Their aggressive nature and painful stings pose a risk to children, pets, and anyone allergic to their venom. Nests built under roof eaves, inside wall voids, or underground can grow rapidly, housing hundreds of insects that defend their colony aggressively when disturbed.
In Boise and throughout the Treasure Valley, stinging insect populations peak during spring and summer when they search for food and nesting sites. Attempting to remove a nest on your own can result in multiple stings and unsafe conditions. That’s why professional stinging insect control is the safest, most effective solution.
At Wild West Pest Control, we provide expert stinging insect removal and prevention services designed to keep your property safe and comfortable. Our trained technicians locate and safely eliminate nests, treat high-risk areas, and offer preventive solutions to stop future infestations. We use family- and pet-safe treatments to ensure your peace of mind while protecting your home or business.
Why Stinging Insect Control Matters
Reduce Health Risks Wasps and hornets can sting repeatedly and trigger severe allergic reactions. Professional removal minimizes the risk of dangerous encounters.
Protect Outdoor Living Spaces Stinging insects make decks, patios, and gardens unsafe. Our treatments reclaim these spaces so you can enjoy your yard again.
Prevent Structural Damage Nests in walls, attics, or soffits can damage building materials. We safely remove them and reduce the chance of structural harm.
Stop Seasonal Infestations Many species rebuild nests each year. We provide ongoing protection to prevent stinging insects from reestablishing colonies on your property.

Common Pests We Eliminate

Mice and Rats
Wasps
Cockroaches

Other Insects
Ant Control
Ants are more than just annoying—they’re relentless. From tiny pavement ants trailing into your pantry to carpenter ants damaging your home’s structure, each type brings its own challenges. At Wild West, we start by identifying the species and locating the nest (because killing the ants you see doesn’t solve the root problem). Then, we use pet-safe, family-friendly products to eliminate the colony at its source. We finish with sealing up entry points and offering prevention tips to keep them out for good. Ants might be persistent—but we’re more stubborn.
Spiders are common across the Boise area, especially as temperatures rise in spring and summer. While most are harmless, some species—like the black widow—can pose health risks. Our spider control service starts with a full inspection, including identifying nesting sites and removing visible webs. We then treat both inside and outside your home to target spider hotspots and reduce other insect populations that attract them. We’ll even help seal up entry points to prevent future invasions. With Wild West, you’re not just removing spiders—you’re reclaiming your space.
Rodents like mice and rats aren’t just a nuisance—they’re a hazard. They chew wires, contaminate food, damage insulation, and spread disease. Boise homes, especially those near open land or farmland, are particularly vulnerable. We take a comprehensive approach: identifying entry points, setting effective traps and bait stations, and performing exclusion work to rodent-proof your home. Our technicians also educate you on keeping rodents out for good. We don’t just control the problem—we make sure it doesn’t come back.
Boise summers often bring an uptick in wasp activity, especially around attics, decks, and under eaves. Wasps can be territorial and aggressive, posing a real risk to your family and pets. When you call Wild West, we act fast. We locate the nest, safely remove it using protective gear and proven techniques, and treat surrounding areas to prevent re-nesting. We’ll also advise you on reducing attractants like sugary drinks and standing water. Our goal? Make your yard a safe place to relax again.
Cockroaches are survivors—and if you’re seeing them during the day, it likely means a large infestation. Boise homes and businesses can see a variety of roach species, especially around kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. Our team inspects, identifies, and targets cockroach hotspots with a mix of bait, dust, and residual treatments. We’ll also help you seal entry points and eliminate moisture or food sources that keep roaches coming back. With Wild West, you’re not just treating the symptoms—you’re wiping out the root of the problem.
Boise’s warm seasons and nearby water sources make for ideal mosquito breeding grounds. These pests are more than irritating—they can carry diseases like West Nile Virus. Our mosquito control service targets both adults and larvae. We inspect your yard for breeding sites, apply barrier sprays, and use larvicides where needed. We’ll also guide you on reducing standing water and plant cover. The result? Fewer bites, safer outdoor time, and a more enjoyable summer.
From silverfish and centipedes to earwigs, pantry moths, and boxelder bugs—Boise has no shortage of creepy crawlies. We’re equipped to handle them all. Our approach is always tailored: we identify the pest, treat it with safe, effective solutions, and provide you with easy-to-follow prevention steps. Whether it flies, crawls, stings, or chews—if it doesn’t belong in your home, we’ll get rid of it. No mystery bugs, no surprise charges—just honest, thorough pest control.
So grateful we found Wild West Pest Control. Mike the owner and his wife are honest, professional and always so kind. They stand by their work and always do everything to make us happy. Wyatt does our service and he is always great to work with. Highly recommend Wild West. Great Price and Great Service!
The service technician was very nice and professional. He throughly complete the service, quick and easy. I had a couple questions he addressed quickly. I would highly recommend to coworkers, friends and family.
Wild West Pest Control has been a wonderful company to work with. They are always timely and their techs are thorough in treating whatever pest issues may arise. Mike Slagle and his entire team have always been very responsive to any question or request. Highly recommend this service company.
I am very impressed with Wild West Pet Control. It started right away with their receptionist. Heidi heard what I needed, explained the services available, didn't try and oversell me on services I didn't need and scheduled me right away. Scott came out, addressed my rodent problem, explained what he… found and what he did to fix it. He also gave me a great suggestion on how I could repair a problem with my garage door weather stripping that garage door repair people I had called in the past never mentioned. I was really wowed by these people; straight forward, skilled, knowledgeable, helpful and NICE!!!! I recommend Wild West Pest Control 200 % (no that's not a typo).
Wild West Pest Control technicians are always on time, professional, and thorough. We don't have to be home for the treatment but if we are, they always knock, introduce themselves, ask if there are points of concern, then explain completely what they will target that day. I highly recommend Mike… and his team for any and all your pest control needs.
Wild West Pest Control is truly one of the finest companies I’ve ever worked with. They are honest, hard-working, and genuinely care about the people they serve. That same integrity shows up in every member of their staff. Any time I’ve ever had a need or a question, they have been quick to respond,… accommodating, and very pleasant to work with.
They consistently go out of their way to make sure their customers receive exceptional service, and I enjoy the results of those efforts by having a pest-free home year-round. It’s rare to find a company that is this dependable, ethical, and committed to doing things with such high standards. I highly recommend Wild West Pest Control - great people, great company, and truly outstanding service!
We’ve been using Wild West Pest Control for about two years, and their customer service has always been great. They’re friendly, professional, and very quick to respond whenever we need help.
However, we still deal with pests returning not long after treatments, which has been frustrating. We do… live in Kuna and I’ve never used another Pest Control company to compare so I’m not sure if this is normal. I was also disappointed about the clover mite issue—we paid a lot extra for treatment that was supposed to get rid of them, but they never went away, and later we learned they typically can’t be fully eliminated during that time of year.
Overall, they’re wonderful to work with, I wish the results were more consistent.
Thanks Scott! Great communication and appreciated the photos. Thanks for addressing our rodent issue, ick! Excellent customer service, thorough and professional.
The team at Wild West Pest Control has been amazing. Mike, Heidi and the team have been professional & kind. We have had some “unusual” rodent activity and they were able to respond quickly.
I highly recommend them
I recently used this pest control service for nest removal and was thoroughly impressed! Their team was professional, efficient, and very knowledgeable. What truly stood out was their same-day turnaround — they responded quickly to my request and had everything under control before the day was over.… I highly recommend them to anyone needing fast and reliable pest control and nest removal solutions!
Get's the job done on time and schedules with advance notice so we can protect the dogs. They've made interim visits when we find a hot spot like pavement ants and come quickly. Notifies us upon arrival if we are home. Covers the whole home - front, back, sides. I have had zero concerns or… issues after working with them a few years. Recommended for sure.
Wild West is great. Can’t recommend them enough! They are incredibly thorough and reliable. They have made a huge difference to my property. I used to have tiny, little spiders that would cover my house in webs. They are completely gone. I have far less wasps, yellow jackets and ants as cc well. No… more creepers in my house too. They even put out traps for the whistle pigs that keep trying to make my yard their home. It’s so much better than it was. Their communication, scheduling and billing are also extremely convenient. Big thumbs up from me.
Been great for us, I have been on with them for over a year, and if they come out and I see something else pop up afterwards. They always come out and help right away. Great people to work with! Its amazing how many pests they have been able to handle.
We started using Wild West Pest Control this summer and are very pleased with their service. We had several wasp nests that they eradicated. They also took care of spiders, chinch bugs and a lot of other unwanted pests for us. Would highly recommend!
Awesome company! They are thorough and very professional. We’ve been using them for three years now. Wyatt, one of our techs, is very knowledgeable and always nice about accommodating us in any way possible. They don’t disappoint!
Wild West is a top-notch company. We’ve been using them for a couple of years and never have a problem with anything. They stay totally on top of things and I would highly recommend their services.
Scott and then entire Wild West team have gone above and beyond on multiple instances for me. As someone who resides in a 125 year old home, there are special pest challenges that go along with the charm. Scott and team have eliminated an ant colony deep in the walls of the house and most recently… are coming to my rescue with what appears to be a spider nest. They are a 5 for sure with excellent customer service and knowledge and expertise unmatched. You will not be disappointed in their service ! Highly recommended!
The service men are polite and communicate but I want to recognize the gal in the office, Heidi. Heidi is pleasant and easy to get questions answered. She is on top of scheduling and follow through. She calls to make sure you are aware of visits and if she says she will call you at a later date for… some reason, you can be sure you will get that call..
Wyatt, is a very professional, knowledgeable, and personalble young man, was treated with utmost respect, appreciated that very much, very helpful. Thank you Bunches, plan on being a customer for a very long time ❣️
Scott was friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. His honesty was appreciated and refreshing. I understand the situation much more fully. Although they were unable to help with our current problem I will be contacting them for our future needs and feel confident in recommending Wild West to… others. We now have Wild West Pest Control serving our home on a regular basis. Wyatt our technician was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job. We've use a few pest control services and this is the best by far.
Nice staff and good communications. Great to know if you have an issue they will be out to help at no charge. Fortunately we have not had any issues and the quarterly service has served us well.
Most people would give a 5 so don't go by my 4! They always address my concerns and anytime I message they respond promptly. My only issue is that I am deathly and I mean deathly afraid of spiders and we still have quite large ones in the patio and front porch. I think idaho spiders are bionic or… something! Even with that I would 100% recommend them! They also clean all the webs and Nats away, adressed the wasps promptly and even have a service for flys (extra cost) but might be worth trying.
I have been using wild west for a while now and am very pleased with the services that they provide. Besides taking care of the bugs and spiders, we had some mice a while back and they took care of that with no extra charge. They even fixed a crawl space vent that had a gap where rodents could get… through. Great company!
Scott was professional and thorough today, explaining the process and products used to my husband and me both. We have used this company since moving to Idaho 1 1/2 years ago. I'm so glad Wild West came to our door when we first moved here! I can't recommend them enough.
We called Wild West Pest for an ant problem. We had a huge nest out the front door and another out the back door. The issue I had was they wanted to go from one to the other through my house. They responded right away and took care of the problem with two visit. Care was taken of exposure to my… pets. They were just fabulous.
Getting great reliable pest control should be easy!
