Highly-Rated Wasp Nest Removal Across Bagshot & Surrey
Local Wasp Nest Removal Specialists
Wasps are a common sight throughout Bagshot, Surrey and the UK, especially during the Spring and Summer months. During this time, social wasp species, such as common wasps, German wasps and European hornets, will build nests from chewed wood pulp. These nests are often built in trees, but can also be found in other tight spaces, such as garden sheds, under roof tiles, in the eaves of attics, inside chimneys and even in bird boxes and other areas.
Having a wasp nest on your property can cause significant issues. Wasps can get aggressive when threatened, and wasp stings can be painful and cause anaphylactic shock if you’re allergic to wasp saliva. For commercial sites, wasp nests can cause health and safety issues, and can be dangerous to your business, staff, visitors and reputation.
Thankfully, Peacocks is a leading pest control provider in Surrey, with extensive expertise in removing wasp nests. Led by a field biologist, we can remove the wasp nest without causing damage to non-target species or the local habitat.

Our Wasp Nest Removal Process
When we respond to your wasp nest removal call-out, the first thing we do is inspect your property to find pest entry points and nesting areas. Our survey includes rooflines, vents, soffits, fascia gaps, sheds, garden structures, and any warm voids that may attract queen wasps in spring. During summer months, we look for flight paths, chew marks on wood, and paper-like residue that indicates an active wasp nest. We also assess nearby food and water sources that might be drawing insects closer to your home, such as compost bins, outdoor dining areas, bird feeders, or dripping taps. Once we have identified potential risks, we share clear guidance on proofing and housekeeping steps you can implement immediately to reduce attraction and stop repeat problems later in the season. Photographs and notes from the inspection are provided so you have a record of recommended actions and priority areas to address.

How Peacocks Pest Control Removes Wasp Nests
When you find a wasp nest at your Surrey property, you need it removed quickly. Peacocks aims to offer fast wasp nest removal, safely getting rid of wasps, nests and other debris. Our focus is on protecting your property, public safety and the local habitat, which is why every wasp nest removal we carry out is tailored to your unique needs.
Where possible we will remove wasp nests, reducing the amount of chemicals used. We carefully assess access, nest size, and location to determine the safest approach for your property and the surrounding environment. Our trained technicians use professional equipment to reach difficult areas such as lofts, soffits, sheds, and roof eaves, and when full extraction is feasible we complete the wasp nest removal in one visit. We also provide advice on how to prevent future activity, including sealing gaps, removing attractants, and scheduling follow-up checks during peak season. If the issue is bees, we can relocate them.
If removing the nest is not possible, we can treat it externally and allow the wasps to carry insecticidal dust inside of the nest, causing the wasp issue to be resolved. This targeted method minimises disruption, keeps people and pets at a safe distance, and ensures that the treatment continues working even if the nest is hidden behind cladding or deep within cavity spaces.
If you need fast assistance during peak summer months, we can prioritise callouts for urgent situations and advise on temporary safety measures until a technician arrives. That’s why we’re the best choice to protect you and your home from wasp stings and other issues caused by nuisance wasps. Call 07542 601897 to get rid of wasps for good.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Do Wasp Nests Look Like?
Wasp nests are grey or brown in colour, and look like they’re made of papier-mâché, with distinctive swirl patterns on the outside and a small hole for the worker wasps to enter and exit. Wasp nests can range in size from the same as a golf ball to a basketball or bigger, and are usually round or oval in shape but can expand to fit a certain space, such as the inside of a bird box or the space between roof beams.
Do Wasps Use The Same Nest Again?
Wasps don’t usually use the same nest again. In the winter, the wasps die off, and the new queen wasps hibernate. In the Spring, they will emerge and build a new nest for their new colony. Old wasp nests can be taken over by other insect pests, so it’s important that you get them removed.
How Can You Prevent Wasps From Building Nests On Your Property?
Simple ways to reduce the chances of a future wasp problem include sealing potential entry points, such as cracks and crevices in your external walls. You can also limit their food sources by keeping waste bins tightly sealed and removing old fruit and vegetables from your garden. Our team can provide professional help and bespoke advice on how to prevent wasps, so get in touch today.
Can You Remove Wasp Nests Yourself?
As much as DIY wasp nest removal might seem like a cost-effective solution, the reality is that it can be dangerous and ineffective. That’s because wasps can become aggressive when threatened, and unlike bees, wasps can sting as multiple times without dying. If you’re in close proximity to a wasp nest without protective clothing, you could be seriously hurt. Also, DIY products can be ineffective against wasps. Because our team are RSPH level 2 certified, we have access to insecticides and wasp control products that aren’t available to the general public and are more effective. With wasp nests often being found at a height, or deep inside wall cavities and chimneys, it’s important you remove the nest correctly to avoid structural damage to your property. As such, it’s best to get professional wasp nest removal from experts like Peacocks Pest Control rather than trying to remove wasp nests yourself.
