Wasp nest treatment across Leeds and West Yorkshire at a fixed cost of £90. Fixed price, no hidden costs, and a guaranteed service from trained technicians.
A wasp nest starts in spring as a single queen building a small paper nest. Through the summer the colony grows, and by August a nest in a loft, wall cavity or shed can hold thousands of workers. That is when most calls reach us, because the wasps become more noticeable and more irritable around the nest and around anything sweet. The colony dies off in autumn, but a nest left alone all summer is a risk to anyone who comes near it.
Nests turn up in lofts, under eaves, in soffits and airbricks, in garden sheds, inside cavity walls and sometimes underground. Many Leeds and West Yorkshire homes have old stone and brick with plenty of small gaps the queen can use. Do not block the entrance or poke at the nest yourself, as that tends to send wasps into the house. If you want to watch the activity, do so from a distance.
Our price is simple: a fixed cost of £90 for a wasp nest treatment. Fixed price, no hidden costs, and a guaranteed service. The cost does not depend on how big the nest looks from the ground or how awkward the spot is to reach. We also offer same-day appointments where we can, so contact us with the location of the nest and we will advise on the next step.
We ask where the nest is and how the wasps are getting in or out.
The technician checks access, height and the surrounding property before treatment.
The nest is treated with a professional insecticide applied at the entrance or into the nest itself.
We explain what you will see in the following hours and days as the colony dies.
Where it is sensible, we advise on sealing gaps or removing the old nest.
We charge a fixed cost of £90 for a wasp nest treatment. It is a fixed price with no hidden costs, and the service is guaranteed. If a situation turns out to be something other than a wasp nest, such as hornets or bees, we will say so before any work.
We would advise against it. Disturbing a nest, or spraying from a ladder, risks multiple stings and falls. A treated nest should also be left until the colony has died. If you are not sure whether it is wasps or bees, call us first, as bees are treated differently.
Queens start nests in spring, colonies grow through the summer and are largest in late summer. The colony dies off in autumn and winter, and the old nest is not reused. Calls are highest in the warmer months, but nests can be found from late spring onward.
Same-day appointments are available, depending on where we are working and how many nests are waiting. Contact us with your postcode and where the nest is, and we will give you an honest idea of when we can visit.

Read the advice →Wasp nest treatment has a fixed cost of £90. Here is what that means in practice, why wasp work can be priced this way and what to ask about before you book.
Read the advice →A wasp nest is easiest to deal with when it is small, but it is often found late. These are the signs to look for and the risks worth taking seriously.
Read the advice →You cannot make a property completely wasp-proof, but you can make it less appealing to a queen looking for somewhere to start. Most of the work is done in spring.
Read the advice →Shops sell wasp sprays, so treating a nest yourself looks simple. Whether it is wise depends on where the nest is, how large it is and whether anyone nearby is allergic.
