Wasps & bees
Safe wasp and bee nest removal across Sydney.
An active nest near the house is not something to gamble with. Mark removes and treats wasp and bee nests with the right protective gear and a sensible working distance, often same-day. Please leave the nest alone and let a licensed hand deal with it.
Where they nest
Found a nest? Don't disturb it.
Wasps and aggressive bees defend their nest, and a single knock or stray spray of fly killer can bring the whole colony out at once. The safest move is to keep your distance, keep children and pets away, and call us to handle it properly.
- Eaves and rooflines. The most common spot, tucked up under guttering and fascia where they are easy to miss until the traffic picks up.
- Wall cavities. Nests built inside the wall, often only noticed by the steady stream of insects at a gap or weep hole.
- Garden and trees. Ground nests, shrubs and hedges, and exposed nests hanging from branches.
- Sheds and outbuildings. Quiet, undisturbed corners of sheds, garages, pergolas and cubby houses.
If anyone in the household has a known allergy to stings, treat the nest as urgent and call straight away on 0457 570 076.
How the job runs
Handled safely, start to finish.
Removing a nest is as much about the approach as the treatment. Here is how Mark works a wasp or bee call from arrival to all clear.
- Mark arrives and you point out where the nest is and where you have seen the most activity.
- He checks the location, the species and the safest line of approach.
- Everyone else stays clear while he puts on the correct protective gear.
- He works from a sensible distance using equipment suited to the nest position.
- The nest is treated and dealt with safely and responsibly.
- He confirms the colony is knocked down and the area is safe to use again.
- He shares any advice on keeping the spot from being re-nested.
- You receive your invoice by email.
The right gear, the right distance
Wasp and bee work needs proper protective equipment and a considered approach, not a tin of supermarket spray on a ladder. Mark carries the gear to deal with a defending colony without putting you, your family or himself at risk. If you have other pests around the property too, he covers the lot under general pest control.
Same-day where possible
An active nest by a doorway, play area or bedroom window is a priority. Where the diary allows, Mark will come out the same day across the North Shore, Eastern Suburbs and the surrounding areas. Call early and let him know how close the nest is to where people are.
Common questions
Wasps and bees, answered.
Is it dangerous to leave a nest alone?
An established nest does not go away on its own and the colony grows through the warmer months, so the risk tends to rise the longer it is left. Wasps and defensive bees can sting repeatedly when the nest is disturbed, which is a serious concern around children, pets and anyone with a sting allergy. It is safer to have it dealt with than to wait and hope.
Can you come out same day?
Often, yes. An active nest near where people are is treated as a priority and Mark will fit you in the same day where the diary allows. Call as early as you can on 1800 284 489 and tell him where the nest is so he can plan the visit.
Do you treat bees too, or only wasps?
Both. Wasp and bee nests are dealt with safely and responsibly using the correct gear for the situation. We do not advertise bee relocation, so tell us what you have found when you call and Mark will talk you through the right approach for that nest.
