Wasp nests tend to turn up in sheltered spots, under eaves, inside roller door boxes, behind shutters, in garden sheds or tucked into retaining walls and garden beds. In Goodna, a nest is often not noticed until it has grown large enough to see wasps coming and going in a steady line through the day.
The crew we book locates the nest first, checking the usual spots around the roofline, eaves, sheds and outdoor structures before getting close to it. Removal happens once the location and type of nest is confirmed, since European wasps, paper wasps and mud daubers are dealt with a little differently depending on where the nest is built. A nest tucked inside a roller door box or wall cavity can take a little more effort to reach than one hanging in the open under an eave, and the crew will explain the approach before starting.
Because a disturbed nest can send wasps out defensively, the area is usually approached at a quieter time of day and cleared with people kept away from it. Once the nest is down, the spot is checked over so a new nest is less likely to start in exactly the same place. Pets and outdoor furniture near the nest are worth moving out of the area before the crew arrives, if it is safe to do so from a distance.
