A wasp nest forming under an eave, inside a shed roof or tucked into a garden shrub is worth calling about as soon as you spot it, since nests in New Farm tend to grow quickly through the warmer months and get harder to deal with the longer they are left. The crew we book will ask where the nest is, roughly how big it looks and how it is being accessed, so the right equipment gets sent out on the day.
Around New Farm, wasp nests commonly turn up under eaves and roof lines, inside garden sheds and garages, in retaining walls, and among thick garden shrubs or hedges. Because nests can be at height or in an awkward spot, the crew looks at access before starting, keeps the area clear while working and checks the surrounding eaves, shed roof or garden for any smaller or secondary nests nearby before finishing the visit.
New nests tend to start small in spring and grow through summer, so a nest spotted early is usually a smaller, quicker job than one left until it is fist-sized under an eave. If you are not sure whether what you are looking at is a wasp nest or something else, describe it over the phone and we can help work out what kind of visit to book.
- Nests under eaves, gutters and roof lines
