If you see wasps flying in and out of a gap in the roofline, a vent or a broken tile, the nest is probably inside the roof cavity. These nests can grow large because they are sheltered from weather and out of sight. In Brisbane we hear about them most in older Queenslanders and in homes where a gap has opened between the roof and the fascia.
The crew we book watches the entry point first to confirm where the wasps are going. Depending on access, they treat the nest through the gap from outside or go into the roof space through the manhole to treat it directly. Where the nest can be reached, they remove it. They will also tell you which gaps need sealing once the wasps are gone.
Do not block the entry hole before the visit. Wasps that cannot get out may find another way into the house, sometimes through a ceiling light or vent. When you call, tell us where the wasps are entering, how high it is and where the manhole is. We give you an upfront price before the visit and book a suitable time. Same-day or next-day visits are often possible where the run allows.
