Wasp Control Sydney
Sydney’s #1 Wasp Pest Control Services
Do you have a wasp problem around your Sydney home? Wasp nests can be dangerous if not properly removed. Getting stung is painful and they aggressively defend their nest if disturbed. Some people can have a severe allergic reaction to multiple stings.
We specialize in safe, effective wasp control in Sydney. We use products that kill them on contact and destroy nests. Treatment is done at night when they are less active. Our licensed technicians wear protective gear to safely remove nests.
Wasp stings are more than just a painful nuisance. They can pose safety risks for children and those allergic to stings. They aggressively defend nests and can attack in swarms of hundreds. Also, nests often occur in hidden areas like wall voids where people may accidentally disturb them. Stopping infestations early prevents exponentially growing populations over summer. Ridding your home of nests protects your family’s health and prevents them from damaging property.
We safely eliminate wasp threats around Sydney homes. Contact us today for affordable wasp treatment services.

What are Wasps?
Wasps are insects with two sets of transparent wings and elongated, slender bodies with bright yellow, black, white or brown coloring. They have six legs and antennae on their heads.
There are over 10,000 wasp species in Australia. Only female wasps can sting, using a stinger attached to their abdomen. They can sting multiple times without harm to themselves.
Wasps live in colonies with a queen, workers and males. Nests are constructed from wood pulp or mud to house developing larvae and store food. Nests can be found in trees, underground or attached to buildings.
These dangerous stingers feed on nectar, fruit and other insects they hunt. They are attracted to human sweet foods and drinks left outdoors. Disturbing a nest puts you at risk of multiple stings, so it’s important to get professional removal.

Signs of Infestation
Seeing wasps flying nearby your home is one of the most common signs that a nest is located on the property. Visible nests are another clear indicator. These often look like gray, papery material attached under eaves or a honeycomb style ball hanging in trees or under structures.
Additional signs are holes in wood materials where wasps chew to gather fibers for nest building. You may also notice other damage to outdoor structures caused by the wasps. Another giveaway sign is buzzing sounds coming from a certain area, as the wings of multiple gathered wasps create audible noise.
How to Control
