Our president, Audrey Hall, currently serves as the Secretary on the Board of Directors for the University at Buffalo's Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership (CEL) Alumni Association. The UB CEL provides programs for businesses throughout the Western New York region that range from start-ups to multi-million dollar companies who seek to find solutions to each of their individual business needs. As a graduate of the 2015 CEL Minority and Women Emerging Entrepreneurs Program, Audrey has greatly benefited from this organization.
We are excited to continually immerse ourselves in this wonderful community and be a small part of the great change the city of good neighbors creates. Our Eco Serve Cares initiative brings our team together through:
- Bi-annual food drive for the Food Bank of WNY
- Holiday family shopping for Baker Victory Services
- Team day of giving
- Bee Thankful Facebook Contest in November to benefit a local non-profit organization
- Breast Cancer Awareness and Fundraising Efforts in the month of October
Community Involvement: Harvest House
Scott and Audrey Hall, owners of Eco Serve Pest Services, had the absolute pleasure of receiving a personal tour of the Harvest House from founder Linda Tatu and CEO Carol Miller. Harvest House is a local organization in Buffalo that serves our underprivileged neighbors. They have over 1400 volunteers who help in one of four areas. They have the New Hope Education Center which brings in students every year to provide them with skills training. They have their Good Neighbors Healthcare which provides free primary, vision, and dental care to over 2,400 patients every single year! They also have a retreat center and a baby and children's ministry where parents can bring in their children to pick out clothing, outerwear, and even toys all donated from the Buffalo community. They are desperately in need of boys clothing, sizes 5-14. If you have any gently used items, please drop them off at their Jefferson location. They will be so happy and your hearts will be too.
The other reason for our visit to the Harvest House was to present a check for $500.00 to Linda and Carol. During the last holiday season, Eco Serve ran a "Bee Thankful" campaign on our facebook page. Friends would comment who they are thankful for and why. For every comment, Eco Serve donated $1.00 to Harvest House. Our mission was to spread holiday cheer and raise some money for a terrific organization. We are very thankful to everyone who helped us reach our goal!
We were so blown away by the sincere hospitality and warmth that everyone at the Harvest House welcomed us with. We are looking forward to working with Linda and Carol again soon and if you feel inspired, any donation would be greatly appreciated by them. Find Harvest House here!

Differences Between Bees and Wasps
Although bees and wasps are easy to confuse, they occupy pretty distinct roles in an ecosystem. Our highly trained exterminators know how to recognize the exact species present in your yard so they can resort to the best possible treatment option. Eco Serve offers some simple ways you can better tell the differences between these two insects:
- Bees have fuzzy bodies — Wasps have smooth bodies
- Bees are pollinators that feed on nectar — Wasps eat other insects, and scavenge meat.
- Bees help plants reproduce by spreading pollen — Wasps reduce the amount of caterpillars that feed on the foliage of forest trees and ornamentals.
- Bees can only sting once per insect because their stinger has barbs — Wasps can sting multiple times because they have a smooth stinger.
While both of these insects play important roles in our local ecosystems, they don’t need to nest right next to, or on, your house. If one of these species is too close for comfort, our stinging insect removal experts in Western New York are ready and equipped to provide solutions.
Common Wasps in Western New York
Here in Western New York, you’re most likely to encounter two groups of wasps: Paper Wasps and Yellowjackets. Both tend to build nests near our homes, are smooth-bodied, and black and yellow. But they also have some tell-tale distinguishing factors between them. Here’s how you can tell paper wasps apart from yellowjackets:
Paper Wasps
- Build open nests where you can always see the wasps and their larvae.
- They locate their nests under overhangs, such as eaves or soffits.
- Their nests hang from a single stalk.
- Paper wasps have orange antennae.
Yellowjackets
- Construct enclosed nests with a single hole.
- They have black antennae on their heads.
- Depending on the species, yellowjackets can have 300-150,000 individuals per nest.
Reducing Yellow Jacket Stings in Fall
As summer comes to an end and resources begin to dwindle, yellowjackets can become more aggressive, seeking out sweet and sugary things along with meat and other kinds of food. Here are some simple steps you can take to minimize the chance of attracting and getting stung by yellowjackets come Autumn:
- Keep food covered when picnicking.
- Keep garbage bags and cans sealed so they can’t be accessed.
- Instead of swatting yellowjackets, flick them to get rid of them
- Stay calm and they’re less likely to sting you.
In general yellowjackets don’t go out of their way looking for a fight. Only if they feel like you are threatening them or their nests will they attack. That’s why making a commotion by trying to swat them increases the chances of them actually stinging you.
