Paper wasps and the occasional European wasp nest turn up around Sunshine Coast homes in spots such as eaves, under decks, in garden sheds and inside old letterboxes. Nests can grow quickly through the warmer months, so a nest spotted early is usually a smaller job than one left for weeks. Paper wasp nests are usually small and grey, while European wasp nests can grow much larger and are often found in wall cavities, roof voids or below ground.
The crew will locate the nest and treat it directly, usually from a safe distance using equipment suited to the job, then remove or knock down the nest once activity has settled. Areas nearby, such as eaves and gutter lines, are checked for smaller nests that can be easy to miss from ground level. Outdoor areas where people eat or sit are checked closely, since wasps are drawn to food scraps, sweet drinks and rubbish bins left uncovered.
