Do I Have a Wasp Problem?

If you are experiencing high wasp activity on or near your property you could have a wasp problem.

The most obvious sign is finding a nest. Often these are in sheltered places, such as loft spaces or soffits, and look like a grey, papery balloon. Some wasps use wood to build their nests, so chewed areas of wood or plants might also mean there’s a nest nearby.

You might also see increased numbers of wasps around windows or you’re finding more inside your home or workplace. Wasps tend to become more aggressive when they have a nest, so there’s an increased risk of people nearby being stung.

If you spot these signs, the best option is to call for our professional wasp pest control who service in the Devon area. We’re here 24/7 and there’s no call out fee. It is as simple as giving one of our expert team members a call. Our agent will carry out an assessment over the phone and provide you with a quote or advise if any further information is required.

FAQs

If you want some advice, our expert advisors are on hand 24/7* to help. They can talk through your problem and give you a free, no-obligation, estimate based on your specific situation. Or take a look at our frequently asked questions below and see how our professionals can help you.

How do I know if I have a wasp problem?
Signs of a potential wasp problem include increased wasp activity around your property, particularly near windows, doors, or outdoor areas. You might also notice unusual buzzing sounds coming from walls or ceilings, or areas of chewed wood and plants – materials wasps use to build their nests. The most obvious sign is finding a live nest, which will have a papery, grey balloon-like appearance.
Be careful when investigating a live nest, however. Wasps become more aggressive near their nest and when they feel threatened.

If you spot any of these signs, act quickly and consult a pest control professional.
Are wasps dangerous?
Wasps can be dangerous, especially if they feel threatened, as they may attack and sting. Their stings can be painful and, for some people, potentially life-threatening due to allergic reactions. If you discover a wasp nest, it’s important not to ignore it. Instead, you can rely on the experts at Xpress Pest Control, who have the skills, training and proper tools to safely and effectively handle any wasp pest control in Devon.
What should I do if I find a wasp nest?
If you find one, do not attempt to remove it yourself. Avoid disturbing a wasp nest and keep a safe distance. Contact our professional pest control service for safe and efficient wasp pest control in Devon.

Once a nest is dormant it can be removed. Xpress Pest Control can do this for you as we provide this as a separate service. We typically suggest waiting between 10 and 14 days after treatment to ensure the nest is fully treated with no live wasps using it.
Can I remove a wasp nest myself?
We strongly advise against DIY wasp treatments, as removing wasps can be dangerous. To avoid the risk of painful stings, or severe allergic reactions, it's best to leave pest control to the professionals.
The Xpress pest controllers are also fully trained in the use of professional pesticides
How long will the wasp nest take to die after being treated?
‘Wasps nests generally take 24-48 hours to die off after treatment but can take longer depending on the size and location of the nest. Other factors to consider are the circumstances around application, such as weather and whether or not we were able to apply directly in to the access point. Be sure to hire an experienced nest control expert who will ensure the job is done quickly and efficiently. We wait a full 10 – 14 days after treatment to consider a nest dormant and safe for removal, which we recommend, to reduce the chances of any wasps returning in the future.
Do you carry out commercial wasp treatments?
No, we handle both domestic and commercial pest problems. Our trained professionals will visit your location to assess the level of infestation and identify the wasp species before applying the most appropriate method of pest control.

Many businesses find our commercial pest control services essential to maintaining a clean, safe, and professional environment.

But whether you are at work or in the home, Xpress is equipped to provide expert pest control services whether planned or in a hurry.
