Do it Yourself Wasp Nest Removal Plan

  • Visit your local doctor & make sure that you are not allergic in any way to wasp or hornet venom.
  • Identify exactly what species of wasps they are to find out if the wasps may be safely removed.
  • Purchase a can of wasp killer and then read the directions on the label. Follow these directions to the letter.
  • Find out the location of the nest and the flight path of the wasps. If the nest is above or near a doorway, ensure that you will have an escape point and another method of entry into your home during the treatment period.
  • Wait until night time as the wasps or hornets will not be active, they will be inside or on top of the nest.
  • Wear appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) such as correct respirator for sprays/fumes, impervious gloves, hat, and goggles for eye protection.
  • Clear the area where you will be spraying of all risks: people, pets, toys, clothes on line, vehicles, vegetable patches, foodstuffs, etc.
  • Position yourself where you are close to the nest, but not directly under it.
  • ALWAYS have more than one escape routes planned to escape any annoyed wasps.
  • Spray according to directions on the label. Don’t run from the area but re-treat quickly
  • Wait overnight and the next couple of days to make sure that it has been effective.
  • Wear your PPE again and knock down the nest if it isn’t active anymore and squash the nest with your gloves on to destroy the larvae.
  • Dispose of the wasp or hornet’s nest. Success is yours!

"We first used A1 Pest Control a few years ago when we noticed a few termites under a wine barrell in the rear yard of our home. We asked A1 Pest Control Sydney to pay us a visit to have a thorough termite inspection of our home. Bruce and his crew were on time, and very well presented. They explained how they would get rid of the termite infestation using a low toxic method and how their Thermal cameras worked, It worked very well and now we can sleep at night!"

"We have been using Bruce form A1 Pest Control for over 4 years now. We bought our new house on the Hills Area, and moved in. our neighbours had problem with rodents and spiders so they are using A1 next door. I asked them if they could come over and treat our house too, as i didn't want to chase pest around our home. The service was not only effective, but carried out without any smelly fumes that we have experienced in our last house. They solved problem next door and I haven't seen a bug since."
