Eaves are the most common spot for paper wasp nests in Toowong. They are dry, shaded and sheltered from wind and rain, and the wide eaves and veranda ceilings of Queenslanders give wasps plenty of room. Brick homes and newer townhouses get nests under their eaves too, especially on the sheltered side of the house and above windows and doors.
Nests under the eaves are often out of sight until they have grown, and they can be hard to reach on a two storey home or a steep block. They also tend to come back to the same spot each season, drawn by the marks the old nest leaves behind.
When you call, we ask how many nests you can see, how high they are and whether the ground below is level, sloping or covered by garden beds. We give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew. At the visit, the crew walks the whole roof line, as there is often more than one nest. They explain their plan and the products they use, deal with each nest, remove the ones they can reach and scrape off the old stalks and marks where they can. They also tell you how long to keep people and pets clear of the area.
