Wasp nests around Hoppers Crossing often build in spots that go unnoticed until the wasps themselves become obvious: under eaves, inside roller door boxes, in garden sheds or tucked into retaining walls. Numbers build through spring and peak over summer, so a nest that started small early in the season can grow considerably, and become more defensive, within a few months.
A booked wasp visit is handled as its own job rather than folded into a general round, since a nest calls for a different approach to ants or spiders. The crew locates the nest before starting, works out the safest way to treat it based on where it sits, and treats the nest directly rather than chasing the wasps flying around it.
If the nest around Hoppers Crossing is somewhere awkward, such as high under an eave, inside a wall cavity or near power lines, mention that when calling so the crew can plan accordingly. Keep children and pets clear of the area and avoid disturbing the nest before the visit, since that is when it is most likely to turn defensive. A nest tucked into a retaining wall or garden structure can be trickier to reach than one under an open eave, so tell the crew roughly how the nest is built into the structure when you call, since it changes the approach they plan to use.
