Wasps can become aggressive and dangerous when they build nests near homes, gardens, schools, or commercial properties. At Aptive Pest Control Melbourne, we provide expert wasp nest control services designed to eliminate active nests safely and prevent future infestations.
Whether you are dealing with European wasps, paper wasps, or hidden wall cavity nests, our licensed technicians deliver fast, effective, and safe solutions across Melbourne.
Why Wasp Nest Control Is Important
Unlike bees, wasps can sting multiple times and become highly defensive if their nest is disturbed. Attempting DIY removal can lead to serious injury.
Common risks of untreated wasp infestations include:
-
Painful and repeated stings
-
Allergic reactions
-
Increased nest growth during warmer months
-
Threats to children and pets
-
Disruption to outdoor activities
Professional wasp control ensures the nest is removed completely and safely.
Signs You Need Professional Wasp Nest Control
You may require urgent wasp removal if you notice:
-
Frequent wasp activity in one area
-
Wasps entering roof spaces or wall cavities
-
Visible nests under eaves, decks, or sheds
-
Aggressive behavior when approaching certain areas
-
Buzzing sounds inside walls
Early treatment prevents colony expansion and reduces safety risks.
Types of Wasps We Treat
European Wasp Control
European wasps are highly aggressive and often build nests underground or in concealed cavities. Professional treatment is essential for safe elimination.
Paper Wasp Removal
Paper wasps typically build exposed nests under eaves and roof edges. Quick removal prevents colony growth.
