Professional Wasp Nest Removal Across North East and Central Scotland

Wasp nests can appear suddenly in roofs, eaves, sheds, lofts, or gardens, posing serious sting risks, particularly for children, pets, or anyone with a venom allergy. At Pest King, we provide fast, safe, and effective wasp nest removal across Aberdeen, Dundee & Angus, Perth, and Stirling. Our NPTA registered technicians use professional insecticides for quick eradication with minimal disruption to your household or business.

Wasp season in Scotland typically runs from late April through to October, with peak activity in July, August, and September. We see high volumes of call-outs across Aberdeen's residential areas, particularly Westhill, Portlethen, Cove Bay, and Bridge of Don, where roof spaces and garden outbuildings provide ideal nesting conditions. In Dundee, Broughty Ferry and Carnoustie generate significant summer call-outs, while rural Perthshire and Angus properties with older outbuildings and farm buildings are treated throughout the season. Stirling's older city centre properties and the surrounding villages of Bridge of Allan, Dunblane, and Callander also see regular wasp nest activity in roof voids and cavity walls.

Whether you're dealing with a nest in a Broughty Ferry garden shed, a Stirling loft, a Forfar outbuilding, or a commercial premises in Aberdeen city centre, we'll locate and treat it fast. Call 0333 577 3500 or request a callback.

Common Signs Of An Infestation

Constant wasp activity around a specific spot (e.g., roofline, shed, chimney)
Visible papery grey or brown nest (football-sized or smaller)
Increased aggression from wasps when approached
Buzzing sounds from inside walls or voids
Wasps entering and exiting a small hole repeatedly

Why This Is A Serious Problem

Painful stings, multiple stings possible; anaphylaxis risk for some people
Aggressive defence of nest; attacks in groups if disturbed
Nests can grow to thousands of wasps by late summer
DIY sprays often fail, killing only visible wasps while the nest survives
Agitation can cause wasps to relocate or become more aggressive
Nests in wall cavities or roof voids can cause structural damage if left untreated

Our Process

How We Treat The Problem

01

Assessment

Identify nest location, size, access requirements, and any risks to occupants or neighbours.

02

Treatment

Professional insecticide dust or spray applied directly into the nest entrance. Fast-acting and colony-penetrating.

03

Nest Removal

Safe extraction of the dead nest after treatment where accessible. Wasp nests are not re-used, but removal prevents secondary pests such as moths or beetles.

04

Prevention Advice

Practical guidance on sealing entry points and deterrents to reduce the risk of future nests.

Prevention

How To Reduce The Risk

Seal gaps and cracks in eaves, rooflines, sheds, and walls in early spring before queen wasps begin nesting
Keep bins sealed and clean to avoid attracting wasps
Avoid leaving sweet food or drinks outside during summer
Use wasp traps early in the season to catch founding queens
Trim vegetation away from buildings
Install wasp-proof vent covers on air bricks and soffits

TRUSTED. PROFESSIONAL. RELIABLE.
