Questions we get asked
Should I remove a wasp nest myself?
We strongly advise against it. Disturbing a nest triggers a defensive attack, and nests hidden in wall cavities or underground are often far larger than the entrance suggests.
European wasps in particular will defend a nest aggressively, and multiple stings are a genuine risk.
Where do wasps nest around Melbourne homes?
Common spots include wall cavities, roof eaves, garden beds, under decking and in the ground along fence lines.
Often the first sign is a steady stream of wasps going in and out of one small gap.
How quickly can you treat a wasp nest?
Same-day appointments are often available, and a nest near a door, play area or pool is worth treating quickly.
If we cannot reach you in the timeframe you need, we will say so upfront.
Will the wasps come back?
Once the nest is treated, that colony is finished. New queens can establish new nests in following seasons, especially if the same cavity is left open.
We point out entry gaps worth sealing so the same spot is not reused.
Is 4S Pest Control licensed?
Yes. 4S Pest Control holds Victorian pest control licence L013000 and is a member of the Australian Environmental Pest Managers Association.
Pest control is a licensed trade in Victoria. The Department of Health publishes a public register of licence holders, and you are entitled to ask any technician for their licence number before work begins.
