Wasps Pest Control
Wasps can be aggressive intruders, posing threats to both safety and comfort at home. Our professional wasp control services ensure safe, effective removal and prevention, so you can enjoy a wasp-free environment.
How to Identify Wasp Infestation in Your Home
Wasps often make nests in and around homes, creating a risky environment for families. Here’s how to spot wasp activity before it becomes a bigger problem:
Eaves and Roof Corners
Check for papery nests hanging from eaves or roof edges. This is a common nesting site for wasps.
Furniture & Sheds
Wasps may nest under deck chairs, tables, or inside sheds, especially if undisturbed.
Attic Spaces
Attics offer a dry, secure space for wasps to build nests, especially in unused corners.
Garden and Shrubs
Dense shrubs, bushes, or overgrown areas provide wasps with safe spaces to nest or forage.
Gutters and Wall Voids
Wasps sometimes nest inside wall voids, cracks, or blocked gutters, which shield them from direct view.
Why Do Wasps Invade the Home?
Wasps usually invade homes seeking shelter, warmth, and food sources. Your home’s outdoor spaces and eaves provide perfect nesting spots, while sweet food or sugary drinks attract them to kitchens and picnic areas. These insects can become aggressive if they feel their nest is threatened, making wasp control essential for safety.
Prevention Tips
- Seal cracks or openings in walls and windows.
- Keep sugary foods and drinks covered outdoors.
- Regularly check eaves, decks, and gutters for new nests.
- Install screens on doors and windows to prevent entry.
- Maintain a clean outdoor area, free of food debris.

Wasps - Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take for wasps to go away after pest control?
After professional pest control treatment, wasps typically start to die off within a few hours. However, it can take a couple of days for the entire nest to be eradicated as the insecticide takes effect on all the wasps returning to the nest. The exact duration varies depending on the size of the property and location of the nest, as well as the effectiveness of the insecticide used.
How do I get rid of wasps permanently?
To get rid of wasps permanently, you need to take proactive measures:
- Regularly check your property for early signs of wasp nests, particularly in the spring when nests are being established.
- Fill cracks and crevices in your home’s exterior to prevent wasps from entering.
- Remove potential food sources like garbage and uncovered food, which can attract wasps.
- Use wasp traps and deterrents, such as fake nests and essential oils like peppermint and citrus, to repel wasps.
- Engage professional pest control services for regular treatments and inspections to ensure that any nests are dealt with promptly before they become a significant issue.
Is wasp control safe for pets and children?
Yes, professional wasp control services are generally safe for pets and children when applied correctly. Pest control technicians use treatments that are designed to be effective against wasps while minimizing risks to humans and animals. It is essential to follow the exterminator’s safety instructions, such as keeping pets and children away from treated areas until it is safe to return.
What kills wasps instantly?
You can use commercial wasp sprays that have strong chemicals like pyrethrins or pyrethroids. These sprays work fast and can be used from a safe distance to hit the wasps or their nest. Insecticide dusts, like boric acid or carbaryl, are also effective, especially for nests in hard-to-reach places, because wasps carry the dust back to the nest, killing the whole colony.
Dish soap and water mixture can also kill wasps by suffocating them when sprayed directly on them. Freezing sprays work by quickly lowering the wasps’ temperature, killing them instantly. For big infestations or nests in tricky spots, it’s best to call a professional pest control service.
They have the right tools and know-how to get rid of wasps safely. Always wear protective clothing and treat nests early in the morning or late in the evening when wasps are less active.
What do wasps hate the most?
Wasps are repelled by strong smells such as peppermint, eucalyptus, citrus, and cloves. These scents can be used in multiple forms, such as essential oils, to deter wasps from settling in specific areas. While these smells can help to repel wasps, they are not effective solutions for removing established nests and should be used as part of a broader prevention strategy.
How much time will it take for a wasp pest control service?
A typical wasp pest control service takes about 1-2 hours. It depends on the size of the property and location of the nest. The process includes inspecting the property, treating the nest with appropriate insecticides, and ensuring the area is safe. Larger or more complex nests may require additional time or follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication.
