How to Tell If You Have a Wasp Nest at Your Property
A wasp nest is often hidden in a loft, wall or shed, so knowing the early signs helps you act calmly before the colony grows.

If you have found a wasp nest at your Exmouth home, holiday let or business, the first question is usually how much it will cost. The honest answer is that it depends on the nest, and we explain exactly how on this page. The fixed price box on the page gives you the figure to work from.
We confirm the price with you before any work starts. It can depend on where the nest is and how easy it is to reach. Call 01392 590 140 or send an enquiry.
We agree that price with you before any work begins, so there are no surprises once the technician arrives. Exmouth has plenty of roof eaves, lofts and garden buildings where nests turn up, and each one is a little different.
Three things matter most: where the nest is, how easy it is to reach, and how many nests there are. A nest in a low garden shed is quick to deal with. A nest high in the eaves of a three storey house needs ladders, a second pair of hands and more time on site.
Loft nests and nests inside wall cavities are different again. The technician may need to crawl through a hatch, work in a tight space or treat through a small gap. In Exmouth, where many family homes have loft spaces and open soffits, access is usually the biggest factor in what the job involves. Flat roofs over extensions and garage eaves are also common spots near the seafront.
A fixed price means you know the total before the technician climbs a ladder. We look at the details you give us, confirm the nest position and access, and tell you the price. If the job turns out as described, that is what you pay.
This matters for holiday accommodation and rented homes too. Landlords and guest house owners around the Exmouth marina and seafront often need a clear figure to pass on or approve. A single agreed price makes that simple. Check the price box on this page, then phone us to book the visit.
Keep windows closed near the nest, keep children and pets indoors, and do not block the entrance or poke at the nest. Shop bought sprays often fail because they only kill the wasps near the entrance, leaving the queen and the main nest untouched. They can also make wasps more aggressive. A proper treatment reaches the whole nest, which is why we handle it for EX8 customers. We look after nests across Exmouth every season.
The fixed price box on this page shows the figure for a standard nest. Awkward positions, such as high eaves or tight lofts, are discussed when you phone us, and we confirm the price before any work starts.
Roof and high eaves nests need ladders and more time, so we talk through access when you call. Once the price is agreed it stays fixed for the job as described.
Yes. We also cover Budleigh Salterton, Dawlish and Topsham, and the same way of agreeing a fixed price applies there too.
“We had a wasps nest in the ducting from the cooker hood to the extractor fan. Very tricky. Handled well and promptly by Stuart”
Gary Smith“Paul was open to our questions and knowledgeable about everything we asked. He laid traps for mice for us to check, himself checking them over a period of weeks til we were all sure there were no mice on the premises. A friendly and reliable service. Thankyou Stuart!”
Keith Fielder“I'm really happy with your service - I literally only saw one more flea after you visited, and none in the months since. I would give you a five star review. Great job!”
