When wasps keep disappearing into a small hole in a wall, the nest is inside the cavity. Common entry points around New Farm include weep holes in brick walls, cracks in render, gaps between weatherboards, and the spaces around pipes, cables and electricity boxes. It is common in older timber homes and in brick units with garden beds against the walls. Sometimes you can hear a soft rustle through the plaster on the inside.
The crew we book watches the hole to confirm it is wasps, then treats the cavity through the entry point with a dust or foam made for wall voids. Wasps moving in and out carry the product into the nest over the next few hours. The nest itself usually stays in the wall and dries out, so in most cases there is no need to open up the plaster.
Please leave the hole open until the visit. Blocking it can push the wasps to chew or crawl their way into the house. When you call, tell us where the hole is, what the wall is made of and how high it sits. We give you an upfront price before the visit and book a crew at a suitable time.
