How does wasp nest removal in Melbourne work?
Wasp nest removal in Melbourne comes down to three jobs: treating the colony where it lives, taking the nest out once the wasps are dead, and closing the hole they used. A wasp removal that stops at the spray can leaves a dead nest in your wall and an open doorway for the next queen in spring.
Our technicians put insecticidal dust straight into the nest entrance, usually late in the day when the foragers are home. Once the colony has stopped flying, we lift the nest out, and our handymen repair the eave, wall lining or weep hole it was built behind.
Wasp removal Melbourne prices start from $240 for a nest we can reach, and every job carries a 12 month guarantee on the same spot. If a nest re establishes there within a year, we come back and deal with it at no charge.

Three wasp species we remove in Melbourne
The wasp decides the plan: where we treat, what time of day, and how much of the house needs opening afterwards.
European wasp
Vespula germanica
- How to spot it
- Bright yellow and black, stocky, with folded wings and short legs tucked up in flight.
- Where it nests
- Holes in lawns and garden beds, wall cavities, roof voids and sub floors.
- What we do
- Dust into the entrance at dusk, nest dug or cut out once quiet, the gap sealed.
Paper wasp
Polistes species
- How to spot it
- Slim, brown to reddish with yellow bands, long legs hanging down as it flies.
- Where it nests
- Open grey comb like an upside down umbrella under eaves, pergolas and letterboxes.
- What we do
- Paper wasp removal at night while the colony rests, comb scraped off and the spot treated.
Mud wasp
Mud daubers, several species
- How to spot it
- Black and orange or metallic blue, thin waisted, working alone rather than in a colony.
- Where it nests
- Mud tubes on brickwork, window frames, garage walls and inside weep holes.
- What we do
- Tubes scraped off, blocked weep holes cleared and fitted with vermin covers.
European wasp nest removal in lawns, walls and roofs
European wasps are the ones that gatecrash a barbecue and dive into a can of soft drink. They are an introduced species, they defend the nest hard and each wasp can sting more than once. In Melbourne the nests are often underground in a lawn or garden bed, with a single hole the size of a coin and a steady stream of traffic.
Just as often they are in a wall cavity or roof void, and the only sign is wasps disappearing behind a weatherboard, a brick joint or a gap under the eave. Our European wasp nest removal treats that entrance directly, lets the dust work through the colony, then removes the nest where we can reach it. Nests in Melbourne can survive a mild winter and keep growing, so a late season nest can be very large. European wasp removal is covered by the same 12 month guarantee.
- Nest entrance located
- Wall, lawn or roof confirmed
- Treated in full PPE
- Nest removed where reachable
- Entry gap sealed
- 12 month guarantee
Wasp control Melbourne crews usually stop at the spray
Killing the colony is half the job. The other half is the gap in your house that made the nest possible.
A spray and go wasp exterminator
Treats the colony, then leaves the building as it found it.
- Sprays the entrance and heads to the next job
- Leaves the dead nest inside the wall or roof
- Dead wasps and grubs left to rot and draw other pests
- The gap in the eave or wall stays open
- No guarantee if a new queen moves in
Good Guys, pest control plus handyman
Treats the colony, then fixes the part of the house it used.
- Nest removed once the colony is dead
- Wall or eave opened neatly where the nest sits behind it
- Weep holes cleared of mud wasp tubes and fitted with covers
- Lining, eave or vent repaired and the gap sealed
- 12 month guarantee: if a nest comes back in that spot, we return at no charge
Found a wasp nest? Do not spray it or block the hole.
A can of fly spray only angers the colony, and blocking a wall entrance can send the wasps chewing through the plaster into your house. Keep people and pets away and call us.
Paper wasp nests and what we take away
These combs came off one of our jobs. Paper wasps build open grey combs under eaves, pergolas, letterboxes and window awnings, and a warm Melbourne summer can see several combs on the same house. Paper wasp removal is usually done after dark, when the whole colony is on the comb and resting.
We treat each comb, scrape it off and take it with us, then treat the spot so the next queen is not drawn back to the scent. Where combs are built into a gap in the eave lining or behind a loose fascia, our handymen close that gap on the same visit. A wasp pest control visit like this is often quick, and it is still covered by the 12 month guarantee on the spots we treated.
- Treated after dark
- Every comb scraped off
- Nests taken away
- Spot treated after removal
- Eave gaps closed
- Priced from $240

What changes the price of a wasp nest
- Where the nest is. A comb on an eave is quick; a nest inside a double storey wall takes longer.
- Size of the colony. Late season European wasp nests can be large and need more product and time.
- Height and access. Second storey eaves and steep roofs need ladders, harness gear or a second tech.
- Repair work. Refitting an eave sheet costs less than patching and painting a plaster wall.
- Number of nests. Paper wasps often build several combs around one house; we quote them together.
- After hours. Urgent nests at night or on public holidays are quoted before we come out.
Wasp stings, allergies and our 12 month wasp guarantee
The two things callers ask most: how to stay safe until we arrive, and what happens if the nest returns.
Stay safe around the nest
Keep children and pets inside and stay well back from the entrance. Do not spray, block, burn or flood a nest yourself.
If someone is stung and has trouble breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or feels faint, call 000 straight away. Use their adrenaline autoinjector if they have one.
The 12 month guarantee
Every wasp nest removal carries a 12 month guarantee on the spot we treated.
If a nest re establishes in the same place within 12 months, we come back at no charge. It is written on your job sheet.

Your wasp nest questions

How much does wasp nest removal cost?
Wasp nest removal starts from $240 for a nest we can reach. A European wasp nest inside a double storey wall, or several paper wasp combs around a big house, takes longer and is quoted before we start. You approve the price first.
What does the 12 month guarantee cover?
The spot we treated. If a wasp nest re establishes in that same place within 12 months, we come back and deal with it at no charge.
Can I spray the nest myself?
We advise against it. Supermarket spray rarely reaches the colony, and the wasps defend the entrance hard. European wasps can sting repeatedly, and blocking the hole can push them inside through the plaster.
Do you remove the nest or just kill the wasps?
We remove it wherever we can reach it once the colony is dead. Nests left in a wall can attract other pests and give the next queen a head start.
What time of day do you treat a wasp nest?
Usually late afternoon or dusk, when most of the workers are back inside. Paper wasp removal is often done after dark while the colony rests.
How long before the wasps stop flying?
Activity drops within hours and usually stops within a day or two. A few returning foragers may hover near the entrance before they die off.
Someone was stung and is swelling up. What do I do?
If there is any trouble breathing, swelling of the lips, face or throat, dizziness or collapse, call 000 immediately. That is a medical emergency, then call us once everyone is safe.
Are mud wasps dangerous?
Rarely. They work alone and seldom sting, but their tubes block weep holes and vents. We scrape them off and clear the holes. If you have other insects around the brickwork, our spider control is often booked with it.
I think they are bees, not wasps. Can you help?
Yes. Bees in a wall or roof need the comb cut out as well, so they have their own service. See our bee removal Melbourne page.
Can you come today?
We answer 24/7 and put nests near doorways, play areas and allergic family members at the top of the list. Call early for the best chance of a same day visit.
Do you handle birds nesting in the same eave?
Yes. Our bird nest removal service clears nests and mites and closes the gap, and it often shares a visit with a wasp job.
