We specialise in wasp, hornet and bee control. These flying insects can become a serious concern when they nest close to homes or workplaces. While these insects play important roles in the environment, they can also pose a risk to people, especially when they feel threatened. Their stings are painful and, in some cases, can trigger severe allergic reactions in some individuals. Whether it’s a wasp nest in your roof, hornets swarming near a doorway, or bees in your garden wall, our team provides safe and effective removal solutions to protect your property and the people around it.
Correctly identifying whether you’re dealing with wasps, bees, or hornets is important—not only for your own awareness but also so pest control professionals know what to expect and how best to approach the situation. Different species require different treatment methods, and knowing which insect is present helps determine how cautious you need to be, especially if there’s a risk of stings or allergic reactions. Wasps are typically slender with smooth, bright yellow and black bodies and are more aggressive, particularly when defending a nest. Bees are rounder, fuzzier, and usually less vivid in colour, and while they are less likely to sting, they can become defensive if disturbed. Hornets, a larger and more intimidating type of wasp, often have darker or reddish markings and build large papery nests in trees or roof spaces. Identifying the right species ensures safe and effective control.
Wasp and hornet nests can pose a serious risk, especially when located near homes, gardens, or public spaces. Our professional nest removal service ensures these threats are dealt with safely and efficiently. We start by identifying the species and assessing the location and size of the nest, then apply targeted treatments to eliminate the colony with minimal disruption. Wasps and hornets can become highly aggressive when disturbed, so it’s essential that removal is carried out by trained technicians using the proper equipment and safety measures. Beyond nest removal, we also provide follow-up inspections, seal potential entry points, and offer advice on preventing future infestations. Whether the nest is high up in a roof void, hidden in a hedge, or inside a wall cavity, we have the experience and tools to handle the job with care and professionalism.
If you’re unsure whether you’re dealing with a wasp or hornet infestation, there are several clear signs that can help confirm it. In most cases, their presence is hard to miss—these aggressive stingers make themselves known quickly. Common indicators include frequent sightings of wasps or hornets around your property, especially near entry points or outdoor eating areas. A persistent buzzing sound may suggest a nest is nearby, often tucked away in roof spaces, wall cavities, or trees. You might also spot the nest itself or notice signs of one forming. Additionally, if you see crumbling or weathered wood, it could be a sign of nesting activity, as wasps often chew wood to create the pulp they use for building nests.
We offer a bee relocation service for those struggling with a bee infestation. Bees play a vital role in our ecosystem, especially in pollination, which supports plant life and food production. When bees build nests in or around homes, we work with local beekeepers and specialists to safely and carefully relocate the colony without harm. This ensures the bees continue to thrive in a more suitable environment, while also removing any risk to people nearby. Our approach reflects our commitment to responsible pest control and the protection of important pollinators.
