Discovering a wasp nest around your home can be alarming, especially during the warmer months when wasps are at their most active. Your first thought may be to deal with it yourself, but attempting to remove a wasp nest without the right equipment and experience can be extremely dangerous. At Millennium Pest Control Limited, we strongly advise leaving wasp nest removal to trained professionals.
Wasps become highly protective of their nest if they feel threatened. Even a small amount of disturbance can cause hundreds of wasps to swarm and defend their colony. Unlike bees, wasps can sting multiple times, making them a serious risk to anyone nearby. For people who suffer from allergies, a wasp sting can quickly become a medical emergency.
Many homeowners attempt to use shop-bought sprays or try knocking down a nest themselves. Unfortunately, these methods often fail to eliminate the entire colony. If the queen survives, the nest may continue to thrive, leaving you with the same problem only days later. In many cases, disturbing the nest simply makes the wasps more aggressive.
Wasp nests are not always easy to access either. They are commonly found in lofts, roof spaces, wall cavities, sheds, garages, under roof tiles and even underground. Trying to reach these locations without the correct safety equipment can put you at risk of falls, injuries and multiple stings.
At Millennium Pest Control Limited, we provide a safe, professional wasp nest removal service. Our qualified wasp nest exterminator will visit your property and carry out an effective treatment to eradicate the nest. We offer a same day response for urgent situations, so if you need immediate assistance, simply call our office and our friendly scheduling team will be happy to help. If your situation is less urgent, you can also book and pay online for a next day or future appointment at a time that suits you.
The treatment we use depends on where the nest is located. If the nest is fully visible and accessible, we apply a powerful insecticide that kills the colony quickly. If the nest is hidden inside a wall cavity, beneath roof tiles or in the ground, we use a fast-acting insecticidal powder. The wasps carry the powder back into the nest, where it reaches the queen and the rest of the colony, eliminating the nest within hours.
Once the treatment has been completed, we will email you a digital report outlining the work carried out, any exclusion times and important health and safety information, including advice on keeping children and pets away from the treated area until it is safe.
