Call Someone Else First If…
Some situations need a doctor, Poison Control or a beekeeper before a pest pro. Handle the person first, then the pest.
- Trouble breathing or face or throat swelling after a sting: call 911. Johns Hopkins Medicine says a severe reaction can start within minutes or more than an hour later.
- Pesticide exposure: call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 with the container in hand, or 911 if the person is unconscious or can’t breathe.
- A bat in a room where someone slept: call your doctor or health department. The CDC says to capture the bat only if it is safe.
- A honey bee swarm: usually leave it alone. University of Minnesota Extension says swarms are temporary and a beekeeper may collect one in a risky spot.
Emergency or Can It Wait?
Use this to decide how fast you need help. When in doubt, call and describe what you see.
| Situation | How fast | What to do now |
|---|---|---|
| Wasp or yellow jacket nest by a door, deck or play area | Call today | Keep people and pets away. Don’t swat at it or plug the hole. |
| Wasps or yellow jackets inside the house | Call today | Close off the room. Don’t seal a wall opening. |
| Bat in the living space | Call today | If anyone slept in that room, call your doctor first. |
| Mice, rats or roaches in a food business | Call today | Protect food and food surfaces. Note where you saw them. |
| Honey bee swarm on a branch or fence | Usually can wait | Leave it alone and don’t spray it. |
| Boxelder bugs indoors | Can wait | Vacuum them up. They don’t bite or breed indoors. |
Bats: The Wisconsin Rule
Wisconsin DNR lists four bat species as threatened and bans evicting bats from buildings from June 1 to August 15, while mothers raise their pups, unless a health exemption form is filed. A colony in the attic is inspected now and sealed out in the open season.

- The pest and where it is
- How hard the nest is to reach: ground, wall, attic or roofline

Urgent Pest Help Near Wausau
We serve these communities.
Is emergency pest control a thing?
Yes, for pests that are a risk right now, like a stinging nest where people walk or wasps inside the house. Call and we’ll book the first available visit.
When should you call for urgent pest help?
Call the same day when a pest can hurt someone, gets into living space, or threatens a food business. Pests that are only a nuisance, like boxelder bugs, can wait.
Is pest control considered an emergency?
Most pest problems are not. They become urgent when there is a sting risk, a bat where someone slept, or pests near food in a business.
How quickly can pest control respond?
It depends on our schedule and the time of day. You’ll be told the first available time when you call.
How much does urgent pest control cost?
It depends on the pest, where it is and when the visit happens. We tell you up front if same-day or after-hours service costs extra. You get the price before work starts.
Is 24-hour pest control available in Wausau?
Availability outside regular hours depends on our schedule in your area. Call [PHONE] and ask about the first available visit and any after-hours fee.
Should I spray a wasp nest myself?
Not if anyone in the home is allergic, or if the nest is inside a wall, attic or the ground near a door. Those are jobs for a pro.
Can bats be removed from my attic in summer?
Not usually. Wisconsin DNR bans evicting bats from buildings from June 1 to August 15 unless a health exemption form is filed. The home can be inspected now and the bats sealed out after the pup season.
Who removes a honey bee swarm?
Usually no one needs to. Swarms are temporary and move on by themselves. If one is in a risky spot, an experienced beekeeper may collect it.
