Wasp Nest Removal: 5 frequently asked questions
Do I need to be home?
Not always. If the nest is outside and easy to reach, we can often treat it while you're out.
Do you remove bees?
We don't kill honeybees. We'll put you in touch with a local beekeeper. Bumblebee nests are usually best left alone.
How quickly can you come out?
In most boroughs we offer same-day or next-day wasp visits during peak season.
Will the wasps die straight away?
Most activity stops within a few hours of treatment, although you may see a few wasps returning to the nest for a day or so.
Should I block up the nest entrance?
No. Blocking the entrance can force wasps to find another way out, sometimes into your home. Leave it open so they come into contact with the treatment.
