Wasp Removal Melbourne

If you’re hearing or seeing more wasps around your home or building, then you may have wasp nests hidden under door frames and eaves, in cracks and crevices. Our expert pest control services in Melbourne can help you identify and remove these nests safely. The most common type of nest is a grey paper-like structure with exposed hexagonal squares. Just like bees, the wasp’s primary intention is to protect the nest and its queen, but unlike a bee, they become aggressive when they feel threatened, and can inflict a painful sting several times.

Wasps are attracted to various things including sweet foods and drinks, fruit and sugary snacks. They’re also attracted to floral patterns and bright colours, and you may also find them around the garbage or compost looking for meat and other protein.

European wasps can be mistaken for bees because of similar markings. The main differences are that bees have a rounder body shape and you will find them feeding on pollen and flowers whereas wasps are slenderer and will hide in darker locations.

Did you know?

There are more than 12000 native wasps to Australia and most of these are solitary. The play a critical role in pollination and keeping the ecosystem in balance by eating parasites, spiders, caterpillars, grubs, and other insects. However, the European wasp which was introduced in 1959, is a threat to Australia’s native ecosystem because it does not have natural predators.

Call our qualified technicians to safely remove wasps from your home or building

Trevor again showed his professionalism and expertise when inspecting our house in Mt Eliza. His detailed, comprehensive report with photos and recommendations arrived the next day (by email). Trevor also spoke with us in detail about his inspection and recommendations. He explained the risks of future termite infestation and things we should fix around the house to reduce the risks.

Highly recommend the team for termite inspections! Justin was thorough and explained what he was looking for and why. He was also incredibly accommodating and considerate after I let him know about my anxiety. Justin also explained our options with preventative measures, and answered all our questions. Price was competitive and we were able to book in really quickly. Post inspection report is comprehensive and was sent through within 24 hours.
Will recommend to friends and family.

Highly recommend Pest Police! Ben was absolutely exceptional, his level of knowledge and expertise was second to none and immediately put me at ease. From the very beginning, he showed genuine compassion and empathy for what has been an incredibly stressful situation, taking the time to truly listen to my concerns rather than rushing through the job.

What stood out most was how mindful and respectful he was about the safety of my pets. I had significant concerns about how the issue could be treated without putting them at risk, and Ben carefully talked me through every step of the process in clear, easy-to-understand terms. He explained how the treatment works, what precautions were needed, and tailored everything to ensure it was done in a way I felt completely comfortable with.

Ben was thorough, professional, and incredibly reassuring throughout the entire service. His attention to detail, calm manner, and genuine care made a huge difference during what could have been an overwhelming experience. It’s rare to come across someone who combines such high technical skill with such a strong level of empathy and customer care.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben and Pest Police to anyone, especially pet owners. A well-deserved five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

The service was held in professional way. I wasn't though asked and I didn't give any permission for the pictures taken from my place and see those pictures at a later stage on the inspection report.
I do understand that the technician use these as a proof that he conducted the place and did the inspection finally but it should get my permission first.

Pest Police were efficient throughout the entire process of having termites removed from our home. They are excellent communicators - replied back extremely quickly and even followed up when we forgot to call or reply. They have excellent attention to detail and ensured all termites were removed before they cleared us for further work. We highly recommend them for their professional and thorough service.
