On-site species ID
We identify whether it's a wasp, hornet or bee colony — and treat accordingly. Bees are relocated, not killed.
Service / Wasp & hornet removal
Nests gone. Same day.
A licensed technician removes the nest, treats the entry point, and seals the cavity so it doesn't come back. Protected species handled under permit — legally and safely.

What's included
One visit. Everything handled.
No hidden extras, no return trips billed separately. Here is exactly what happens when you book a wasp or hornet removal with us.
Safe nest removal
Full protective kit, ladder work, roof access. The nest is bagged, sealed and disposed of according to EU rules.
Entry-point sealing
We treat the cavity and seal the opening so a new colony can't move in next season. Free of charge, part of the job.
Digital report
Photos, species, treatment method and safety data sheet — emailed to you within an hour of the visit.
Re-entry guidance
We tell you exactly when the treated area is safe for children, pets and guests — in writing, not vague.

If wasps or hornets return to the same spot within three years, we come back and re-treat at no cost.

Why same day matters
A nest doubles in size every 3 weeks.
From April to October, a single queen becomes a colony of thousands. Every day you wait, the risk and the cost go up.
3 wks
Colony doubling time
In peak season, a small starter nest can reach 5,000+ workers within a month.

More likely to sting in August
Late summer is when colonies are largest, hungriest and most aggressive around food and drink.

Emergency callouts are repeat jobs
Most "DIY spray" attempts fail because the nest is inside a wall or roof cavity — out of reach.

Reviews / wasp & hornet
What clients say after the visit
Verified reviews from homes, restaurants and property managers we've helped with nests this season.
“We had a wasp nest above the restaurant terrace in July. PestGuard arrived within the hour, treated it discreetly and we reopened the same afternoon. Zero drama.”
“Hornets in the roof — two other companies refused because of the protected species rules. PestGuard had the permit and handled it cleanly. Report and invoice arrived the same day.”
FAQ / wasp & hornet
Straight answers
Questions we get asked every week about wasp and hornet nests. If yours isn't here, just call.
Yes. Cavity nests are one of our standard jobs. Depending on the access, we either treat through the entry hole or open a small section of the wall or roof. In most cases we don't remove the physical nest from inside the cavity — we treat it fully and seal the entry, which stops a new colony next season.
European hornets are a protected species in Germany and Austria. We hold the required permits to handle and, where possible, relocate them. If the colony is inaccessible or poses a genuine risk, we treat it under licence with full documentation.
Yes — but bees are handled differently. Honeybees are relocated to a local beekeeper wherever possible. We don't destroy bee colonies. If you're not sure whether it's bees or wasps, send us a photo and we'll tell you before we visit.
For active nests in Munich, Berlin and Vienna we aim for a 45-minute response. Same-day in all other served cities. If the nest is near a school, terrace, hospital or food business, tell us on the call and we'll prioritise it.
Yes — you'll just need to keep windows and doors closed on the affected side for the duration. The treatment itself uses a targeted product with low residual risk to humans. We'll tell you exactly when each area is safe to use again, in writing.
No problem — tell us on the call. DIY attempts usually agitate the colony without killing it, and can make the on-site job slightly longer. We'll still quote a fixed price before we arrive, and it's rare for the price to change.
