Treatment overview

How wasp nest removal works

Wasp nest removal involves locating the active nest, applying a registered insecticide treatment, and confirming the colony has been eliminated. Cavity nests, inside roof spaces, walls, or soffits, are treated through the entry point.

01

Locate the nest

We identify the nest location and assess size, activity level, and accessibility before selecting the appropriate treatment method.

02

Apply treatment

A registered insecticide is applied directly to the nest or through the cavity entry point. The colony is eliminated as wasps contact the treated area.

03

Confirm elimination

We confirm the colony is no longer active before completing the visit.

04

Aftercare guidance

We advise on re-entry timing, what to expect in the short term, and whether any follow-up may be needed.

Common questions

Wasp nest removal, questions we're often asked

For outdoor nests, you can usually remain in the property as long as the treatment area is avoided during the visit. We'll confirm any specific precautions based on the nest location before we begin.

Physical removal is possible once the colony is inactive, usually 24-48 hours after treatment. For cavity nests, the nest is generally left in place as removal would require significant structural access.

Pricing covers one to two nests, with a higher rate for three or more nests, confirmed on the quote.

Once a nest has been treated and the colony eliminated, that specific nest won't re-establish. However, a new nest may form elsewhere on the property in subsequent seasons.

Yes. Cavity nests are treated through the entry point using a registered insecticide. Physical removal of a cavity nest is generally not recommended as it requires structural access and the nest becomes inactive once the colony is eliminated.
