Wasp Removal in Canberra

Wasp nest removal across Canberra for homes with big yards, roof spaces, wall cavities and commercial buildings.

In Canberra, cold winters mean nests start fresh each spring and grow through the warmer months, with activity often most noticeable in late summer and autumn. Paper wasps nest under eaves and in shrubs, and European wasps - present in the ACT - may nest in the ground, wall cavities and roof spaces.

Target Wasp Removal helps Canberra homes and businesses with wasp nests of every size - we identify the wasp, find the nest, treat and remove it, and give you advice to help stop it happening again. Our Canberra team works seven days a week for homes and commercial buildings.

Wasp Removal Canberra - FAQs

How do I know if I have a wasp nest in Canberra?

Repeated wasp activity around one spot, a visible papery nest, or wasps entering and leaving the same hole in a wall, roof space or the ground can all point to a nest nearby. If you are unsure, send us the details and we will arrange an inspection.

Can I remove a wasp nest myself?

We advise against disturbing an active nest. Wasps defend their nest, and nests inside walls or roof voids are hard to reach safely. Contact us and we will take care of it.

How do you quote for wasp nest removal in Canberra?

We give you a clear written quote after we inspect the nest. It depends on the type of wasp, where the nest is and how hard it is to reach, and there are no hidden charges.

When are wasps most active?

Activity usually builds through spring and summer and is often most noticeable in late summer and autumn, although warmer areas can see wasps for much of the year.

What attracts wasps to my property?

Sweet drinks, food scraps, open bins, pet food, fruit trees and sheltered spots such as eaves and sheds all attract wasps. We can point out what applies to your property.
