Sidmouth has many older houses, guest properties and retirement homes, and a wasp nest in any of them calls for a quick, sensible decision. This page explains what shapes the cost of removal, so you can ring us knowing what to expect.
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 never quote a price that changes halfway through. A fixed price is agreed before the visit, and the price box on this page shows the starting figure for a standard nest. 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.
A nest in a garden shed or air brick is usually straightforward. Nests in tall gable ends, behind soffits or deep in a cavity wall need long ladders, care and sometimes a second technician. Time on site is what the price largely reflects.
Older Sidmouth properties often have steep roof pitches, chimneys and loft spaces with limited headroom. None of that is a problem for us, but it does affect how long a treatment takes. Tell us what you can see from the ground and we will work out the job with you. A short call usually settles the details, and the technician can then arrive ready for the right kind of job.
If you run guest accommodation or let out a property in Sidmouth, a wasp nest near a door or window cannot wait. Knowing the cost in advance lets you book the visit and carry on with your day.
We confirm the nest position, the access and the number of nests, then give you one agreed price. The visit covers treatment of the nest. We also explain what to expect afterwards, such as a few wasps still arriving at the old nest site before they disappear.
Keep windows shut, move pets and children away, and leave the nest alone. Over the counter sprays often fail because they hit the entrance only, so the queen and grubs survive and angry wasps may emerge. A full treatment of the nest in EX10 is far more dependable and avoids a second bill. Wherever you are in Sidmouth, phone us with the details and we will talk it through.
Height and access can change the job, so we ask where the nest is when you phone. Once we agree the price it is fixed for the work described. It is worth saying that most calls are settled with one visit, so there is rarely a need to pay twice for the same nest.
The fixed price relates to the nest or nests we agree on before the visit. If a second nest is found, the technician explains it and agrees any change with you first. If you can, describe what you can see from the ground, as a few details help us plan the equipment.
Yes, we also cover Sidford and Sidbury, and the same fixed price approach applies in both.
“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!”
Lucy Hines“Extinguished wasps in very large nest in our roof space. Prompt response to our phone call and job done effectively.”
Alison Falkner“Highly recommend Stuart. He was very efficient, effective, knowledgeable and reassuringly determined. We tried various methods beforehand to solve the problem ourselves but it took Stuart coming in to eradicate it. We wouldn’t use anybody else.”
