June 5 marks the start of Bald Faced Hornet season. This nest is only the size of a golf ball and still only has a single wasp in it--the queen.
It had 13 eggs which would have hatched and pupated within 2-3 weeks so these are about to explode in growth. From now until mid July they will go from golf ball to softball. From mid July through the end of August they will get up to the size of a 5 gallon bucket (the large ones at least)

I have one that's about the size of a soccer ball, so I hope the pest control guy is packing some serious heat.

That's the best time to get the nest - when you're only dealing with the queen!

June 5th last year was the 1st hornets nest.

It was the right moment to catch up with them before it gets big

I need a long reach duster like that! Can you share your setup?

Exacticide Duster. It works well...when it works. I can't exactly recommend it since the internal parts aren't beefy enough for the use and abuse I put it through but their customer service is good and they are fast at shipping parts to repair it. If you have a backup duster it works well. Don't get their extension pole though. It's just a 24 foot extendable painters pole and they charge $140+ for it. Amazon sells better ones for $50. You get the duster, a backup battery, and an 18' extension hose kit and get your own painters pole and you're pretty well set
