Why We Publish a Fixed Price

Wasp nest pricing is where the pest control industry has the worst reputation, and deservedly. The common pattern is a low quoted price on the phone that becomes something else once the technician arrives — a height surcharge, an access surcharge, a second nest charged separately.

£90 is our price for a wasp nest. It does not move.

What Is Included

• Attendance and inspection
• Treatment of the nest
• Any additional nests found at the same property on the same visit
• Advice on the entry point and whether it needs proofing
• Our guarantee

What Is Not Included

• Physical removal of the nest structure where it is inside a wall, roof or void. The nest is treated and the colony dies; the empty structure stays where it is and is harmless
• Roofing or building work to close the entry point
• Nests that cannot be safely reached — very high, or requiring specialist access equipment. We will tell you before charging you

An empty nest is not reused the following year. It does no harm left in place, though it can attract carpet beetles over time in a roof space.

In a Flat or a Block

Wasp nests in this kind of housing raise the same ownership question as squirrels.

• A nest in a communal roof void, soffit or external wall is normally the freeholder's or managing agent's to deal with
• A nest on your balcony or inside your demise is yours
• Wasps entering a hole in a wall two floors up may be nesting somewhere well away from that hole
• Neighbours are often seeing the same traffic — worth asking
• We work to managing agents' instructions

At £90 many people simply pay it rather than wait for an agent. That is a reasonable choice, but it is worth knowing it may not be your bill.

How Quickly Should You Act?

• A nest grows all season. A nest treated in June is a smaller problem than the same nest in September
• Wasps become more aggressive late in the season as the colony breaks down
• Near a door, balcony or window is urgent regardless of size
• Anyone in the household with a sting allergy makes it urgent full stop
• A nest inside a wall or roof can push through a ceiling if it grows large enough

Do Not Treat It Yourself

We would rather say this plainly than sell a service on fear.

• Aerosols provoke the colony without reaching the nest inside a void
• Blocking the entry hole makes wasps chew through into the building instead
• Ladders and wasps is how people get seriously hurt — the sting is rarely the injury
• Multiple stings can affect anyone, not only people with a known allergy
• Petrol, fire and boiling water — every year, and every year it goes badly

How Long It Takes to Work

Treatment is quick. The colony is not instantly silent.

• Expect activity for up to 24–48 hours as foragers return
• Returning wasps carry treatment into the nest, which is how it works
• Do not block the entrance during this period
• Keep away from the entry point while activity continues
• If there is still real activity after a few days, tell us

Related Questions

Is it £90 even if there are two nests?

Yes, if both are found on the same visit at the same property.

Is it more if the nest is high up?

No. That is the point of a fixed price.

Is it bees?

If it is honey bees, we will not treat them and will point you towards a local beekeeper. Bumblebees are docile, short-lived colonies and rarely need anything.
