The eaves are where most wasp nests end up in New Farm. The overhang keeps off sun and rain, the lining gives the stalk a firm grip, and gardens below supply food. Paper wasps often build a string of nests along one side of the house, usually the most sheltered one, and on two-storey homes they can sit well above ladder height for most people.
The crew we book brings ladders and extension gear suited to the job, walks the full length of the eaves and treats each nest along the way. After the wasps settle, they take the nests down, scrape off the stalks and bag them. They also check where the eave lining meets the wall, since wasps sometimes find a way into the roof there.
When you call, tell us if the home is single or double storey, how many nests you have spotted and what is underneath, such as a garden bed, a driveway or a pool fence. We use that to give you an upfront price before the visit and to send the right crew. Same-day or next-day visits are often possible where the run allows.
- Nests under single and double-storey eaves
- Nests in gutters and along fascia boards
- Nests at gable ends and near roof vents
- A row of nests along one sheltered side
- Gaps in the eave lining pointed out for sealing
Keep windows beneath the nests shut and avoid hosing the gutters until the job is done. If a nest hangs over a doorway or a clothesline, mention it so we can look for an early slot. To book eaves wasp removal in New Farm, call 07 3543 7769 and tell us how high the nests sit.
