Wasp nests around Darra homes usually turn up under eaves, inside wall cavities, in garden sheds or tucked into the corner of a carport, and they grow in size once the weather warms up. A nest close to a doorway, clothesline or kids' play area is worth getting dealt with quickly, since a disturbed nest can mean several stings at once.
The crew we book comes out with the right gear to remove the nest directly rather than leaving it to be knocked down and left, and checks nearby eaves and roof gaps for any smaller nests starting up close by. European wasps and paper wasps both turn up around Darra, and the approach differs slightly between the two, so the crew identifies the type before removing it.
- Identifying the wasp type before removal, since paper wasps and European wasps behave differently
- Removing the nest itself, not just knocking it down
- A check of nearby eaves, sheds and roof gaps for other nests starting up
- Advice on keeping doors and windows clear of activity while the area settles
Nest size varies a lot by the time a Darra household calls, from a small paper wasp nest just started under a gutter to a larger European wasp nest that has been growing for weeks inside a wall cavity or electricity box. The crew sizes up the nest before starting, since a larger or harder-to-reach nest needs a different approach to a small exposed one.
A wasp nest close to the house in Darra is not something to leave until the weekend. Call 07 3543 7766 and we will get a crew out to remove it properly.
