Bees or Wasps On Your Property? We Get Rid of the Nest Fast
Bees and wasps may serve different roles in nature, but when they build nests near homes or businesses, they become a problem. Whether it’s a swarm of bees settling in your wall cavity or a paper wasp nest hanging from the eaves, these insects defend their colonies fiercely. One disturbance can trigger a group sting, and for kids, pets, or anyone with allergies, that’s a real danger.
Bugs Are Gone offers fast and effective Bee and Wasp Treatment Services designed to restore safety without damaging your property. We treat nests in hard-to-reach areas, manage infestations with precision, and follow best practices for both safety and sustainability.
What Makes Bee and Wasp Infestations Risky?
Bees: Silent Builders That Won’t Stay Still
Scout bees search for quiet, enclosed spaces. When they find a good spot—often a wall gap, tree hollow, or roofline—the entire swarm moves in. Over days or weeks, they build wax combs and start reproducing. As the colony expands, the risk of group stings increases, especially if bees feel threatened.
Wasps: Aggressive Defenders with Growing Colonies
Wasps, unlike bees, don’t just settle and build—they guard and patrol. A single nest can house hundreds of wasps, and once disturbed, they attack quickly and in numbers. These pests thrive around outdoor food, compost, and water sources. They commonly invade bins, pool areas, patios, and vents.
Both insects become harder to remove the longer they stay. Structural damage, blocked vents, and aggressive behavior are all signs you need immediate treatment.
Signs You Might Have a Nest on Your Property
Some nests are visible. Others are hidden inside walls or behind panels. Watch for:
Bee Warning Signs
- A steady line of bees entering a hole in a wall or tree
- Humming sounds near sheds or rooflines
- Bee droppings on windows or siding
- A visible swarm clustered on a fence, tree, or roof edge
- Increased bee activity near flowers, water features, or compost
Wasp Warning Signs
- A grey paper-like nest under gutters, fences, or eaves
- Wasps flying in and out of a small gap regularly
- Buzzing behind ceilings or around windows
- Wasps hovering near bins, BBQs, or pet bowls
- Sudden aggression when someone walks nearby
Our Safe, Step-by-Step Treatment Process
Whether you’re dealing with bees or wasps, our team follows a clear process that prioritises safety, results, and respect for your space.
Step 1: Full Property Inspection
We inspect roof voids, vents, sheds, fences, wall cavities, and garden features. For wasps, we also check mailboxes, outdoor beams, and utility boxes. For bees, we pay close attention to walls, under eaves, and tree hollows.
Step 2: Species or Nest Identification
We confirm the insect type to apply the right method. For bees, we identify whether it’s a native, stingless, or honey bee species. In some cases, we relocate instead of treat. For wasps, we locate both main and satellite nests that could trigger new infestations.
Step 3: Targeted Treatment
- For Wasps: We use pressurised insecticides directly into the nest or entry point. This instantly neutralises workers and queens.
- For Bees: We use insecticide dust or foam placed precisely into wall gaps, roof edges, or internal voids. We avoid liquid sprays and reduce staining or disruption.
Step 4: Nest Removal or Sealing
If accessible, we remove the treated nest. For hidden nests inside walls or ceilings, we leave them to dry out after treatment and seal entry points to stop scavengers or re-entry. Unremoved nests are no longer active and pose no danger once treated.
Step 5: Preventative Advice
We guide you on how to reduce future infestations. This includes sealing holes, trimming branches, covering bins, and managing garden plants or mulch. We also suggest structural repairs when bees or wasps enter through damaged areas.
Optional: Perimeter Spray
For wasp-prone properties, we offer a long-lasting perimeter spray for fences, play areas, and garden furniture to deter new nests.
Where Bee and Wasp Nests Are Common
Our team treats indoor and outdoor spaces across all types of properties. Common areas include:
High-Risk Nesting Zones
- Roof cavities and ceiling corners
- Behind wall cladding or brick panels
- Inside sheds, meter boxes, or hot water covers
- Under eaves, porches, and decks
- Fence posts, tree trunks, and garden beds
- Outdoor furniture and storage units
- Ground holes near retaining walls or pathways
If you have more than one nest, we’ll treat all during the same visit.
Safe for Homes, Businesses, and Outdoor Spaces
We adjust treatment based on the building type and who uses the space. Bugs Are Gone offers services for:
- Homes, townhouses, and apartments
- Schools, childcare centers, and playgrounds
- Office buildings and retail stores
- Restaurants with outdoor dining
- Warehouses, farms, and rural properties
- Parks, sports facilities, and common areas
We avoid disrupting operations or daily routines. Most treatments take under an hour, and you can return to normal soon after application.
Why DIY Nest Removal Is Not Worth the Risk
Removing a nest yourself may seem like a cost-saving option, but it often causes injuries or bigger problems.
- Bees may swarm if provoked, especially during warm months. Multiple stings cause serious allergic reactions.
- Wasps attack aggressively and repeatedly, especially when sprayed or disturbed by sound or movement.
Using supermarket sprays or garden tools increases your exposure. Our professionals wear protective gear and use controlled applications that reach the entire colony without unnecessary mess.
