Paper wasps build their grey, umbrella-shaped nests under eaves, carports, fence rails, letterboxes and garden shrubs. They are most active in the warmer months, and a nest can grow from a few wasps to dozens over a couple of weeks. If a nest is near a door, a clothesline or where children play, it is worth having it removed. Call us and we will give you upfront pricing for wasp nest removal in Mitchelton.
The crew we book treats the nest first so the wasps inside are dealt with, then takes the nest down. They wear protective gear and work at a distance where they can. Where there are several nests around the home, or wasps keep building in the same spot, the crew can also treat the surfaces where they like to build.
- Keep children and pets indoors while the crew works
- Do not spray, knock or hose the nest yourself
- Tell us how high the nest is and whether a ladder is needed
- Mention any nests inside wall cavities or roof spaces
- Point out any other spots where you have seen wasps
Stings can be painful, and for people with allergies they can be serious. If anyone is stung and feels unwell, seek medical help straight away. Otherwise, the simplest step is to keep well clear of the nest until the crew arrives, and to warn neighbours if it sits near a shared fence.
Wasps also build under carports and pergolas around Mitchelton, not just in big gardens. To book wasp nest removal, call 07 3543 7767 and we will book a local crew for you.
