Professional Wasp Control & Removal Melbourne
When wasp activity becomes severe, nests can pose a significant safety risk to your family and pets. The best results come from identifying the nest location early, confirming the wasp species, and applying the right eradication method for the site.
- ✓Inspection First: We inspect garden structures, eaves, and wall cavities to look for signs of flight paths, active nests, and high-risk areas where European wasps or paper wasps congregate.
- ✓Targeted treatment: Treatment varies depending on the nest location and height. We explain options, such as insecticidal dusts or liquid applications, clearly before any work begins.
- ✓Prevention guidance: We provide practical steps to reduce re-infestation risk (sealing wall vents, managing fallen fruit, covering bins, and identifying early nest formation).
We support Melbourne clients with trained, licensed, and insured technicians. Using an insured provider helps reduce risk and provides added peace of mind. We focus on safe application, clear communication, and long-term outcomes.
We use reputable products sourced from trusted manufacturers, selected for effectiveness and responsible use. Our team provides safety instructions and ensures treatments are applied precisely to the nest to minimise environmental impact.
Pricing depends on factors like the number of nests, their height or accessibility, and the time required to safely neutralise the colony. We’ll provide clear guidance once we understand your situation and suburb.
Usually, no. However, we recommend staying indoors with windows and doors closed during the treatment process to avoid agitated wasps. We’ll advise the safest time to return to the treated area once the activity has ceased.

Defensive Measures Against Wasp Nests
Wasps are often attracted by sheltered nesting sites and accessible food sources. These maintenance steps can help reduce the risk of a colony establishing itself and help you manage activity earlier:
- ✓Keep the property moisture-free: Wasps are drawn to properties that offer protected nesting sites and sweet or protein-rich food. Use these steps to make your home less inviting.
- ✓Seal entry points: Check external walls for gaps in mortar or around window frames to prevent queens from nesting in your wall cavities.
- ✓ Secure outdoor bins: Keep rubbish bins closed and rinsed regularly to remove sugary residues that attract foraging wasps.
- ✓ Monitor water features: Wasps often gather around pools and birdbaths. Keeping these areas clean can reduce the "scouting" activity on your property.
- ✓ Remove fallen fruit: Sugar-rich fruit on the ground is a primary food source. Promptly clearing these helps keep worker wasps away from your yard.
- ✓ Inspect early in spring: Look for golf-ball-sized nests in eaves or sheds during early spring. Addressing them early prevents a massive summer colony.
