Wasps, hornets and bees may build nests in ceilings, balconies, trees and wall openings, posing a risk to children and anyone allergic to stings. We treat each type appropriately, and it is best not to approach the nest.
Signs of an infestation
Repeated wasps or bees flying around one spot
A paper nest or hive in a ceiling, tree or wall opening
Constant buzzing inside walls or ceilings
Repeated stings near an entrance or balcony
Why it matters
Stings are painful and can trigger severe allergic reactions in some people, and nests in hard-to-reach places become more dangerous over time.
How Hero approaches control
We assess the nest location, size, insect type and safe access, then remove or treat it as appropriate, with advice to prevent new nests.
Prevention tips
Seal openings in ceilings and walls
Do not leave sweet food and drinks uncovered
Trim trees close to the house
Keep away from the nest and do not remove it yourself
Frequently asked questions
Should I try to remove the nest myself?
We do not recommend it because stings can be dangerous. It is better to keep away and call a specialist team.
Are bees preserved?
We assess the situation first, and in some locations moving the hive to a beekeeper is preferable to destroying it.
