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.

Sidford sits just north of Sidmouth in the River Sid valley, with older and newer homes side by side. When a wasp nest appears at one of them, people want a straight answer on cost. This page gives you that, in words rather than jargon.
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.
The price box shows our figure. What follows explains what can change the job, and how we settle on one fixed price before any work starts. Tell us what you have found and where, and we will explain the next step plainly, with no pressure to book anything you do not need.
Where the nest sits is the biggest factor. Nests in garden sheds, compost bins or low hedges are usually quick. Nests under the eaves, in a roof void or inside a wall need ladders, safe footing and more time.
Access comes next. A clear drive and an open garden make things easy, while a tight rear passage or a loft hatch makes it harder. Finally we count the nests. Valley homes with gardens and outbuildings can sometimes have more than one, and we treat each one we agree on. Sidford homes along the valley vary a lot, so we treat every call on its own merits.
The fixed price covers the treatment of the nest at your Sidford property. The technician turns up with the right kit, treats the nest safely and explains what happens next, including how long wasps may keep coming back to the spot.
You will not find extras added at the door. If something differs from what you told us, the technician talks it over with you before carrying on. A fixed price also helps if you are a landlord or manage several houses, because you can plan the cost in advance. Anyone in Sidford with a nest near a front door will appreciate knowing the cost first.
Keep everyone away from the nest, close nearby windows and do not block the entrance, which can send wasps indoors. Shop bought sprays seldom reach the heart of a nest, so the colony survives and may be more defensive. Our treatment in Sidford goes to the nest itself, which is why it tends to settle the problem.
Look at the price box on this page, then phone us with the nest position and access details. We confirm one fixed price before the technician visits. Most nests are dealt with in a single visit, so you are unlikely to pay more than once for the same problem.
Often it does, because a low nest is easier to reach. Roof nests need ladders and more time, which we talk through before agreeing the price. A photo is not needed. Just describe where it is and how you reach it, and we will plan the job.
We also cover Sidmouth and Sidbury, so just tell us where you are.
“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!”
