What is wasp nest removal?

Wasp nest removal is the process of treating and eliminating an active wasp nest using specialist insecticides and safety equipment.

The aim is to neutralise the colony, prevent aggressive behaviour, and stop the nest from being reused.

This service is commonly required when nests are close to living spaces, entrances, or areas used by children or pets.

When should a wasp nest be removed?

The safest time to remove a wasp nest is as soon as it poses a risk.

During spring and summer, nests grow quickly and wasps become more territorial, increasing the likelihood of stings.

Abandoned nests in winter are usually inactive, but active nests should always be assessed by a checked wasp nest removal company.

• Wasp activity typically stops within 24 hours

Common mistakes to avoid with wasp nest removal

• Using shop-bought sprays that don’t reach the colony
• Disturbing the nest, which can provoke aggressive behaviour
