Stinging Insect Control: Solutions and Next Steps
Each one is matched to what is actually causing the problem at your property, not to a standard package.
How We Choose a Stinging Insect Control Method
Stinging insect work is decided by location, because location decides the risk. A visible nest under an eave, a nest inside a wall void, a nest in the ground and a general eave and soffit treatment are four different approaches to what may be the same species. The method follows the nest.
A wall void nest needs care: sealing the entrance without treating first can drive the colony inward, and it may come through the ceiling rather than leaving. Ground nests carry a different risk, because they are found by mowing rather than by looking. A technician identifies the species where it changes the treatment.
This page does not cover nests on a roof line or at a height that needs equipment we do not carry, and honey bee colonies, which are better moved by a beekeeper than treated by anyone.

Rozier is a family owned, faith-driven company based in South Hill. Because moisture is what invites termites and rodents in the first place, real prevention starts below the surface.
We treat the infestation and correct the moisture conditions that caused it, instead of handing you to a second contractor.
Each home we visit is assessed through a pest lens and a moisture lens, because underneath a house they are the same problem.
We do not arrive with a predetermined treatment and a timer running. What we propose follows from what we find.
Children, pets and sensitive family members are part of the decision about what gets used and how it is applied.
