Commercial Wasp Control In Bendigo And Melbourne

Spring is here, along with the beautiful flowers that come out and sunny weather, it also brings European wasps. Now is the time in Melbourne and Bendigo to treat European Wasps, as early Spring sees emerging queens, and it is also the best time to implement a proven and safe strategy for wasp prevention.

The European wasp was first sighted in Melbourne in 1977 and within five years it colonised much of the greater Melbourne area including Bendigo. By the 1990s, the European wasp was established throughout most other parts of Victoria.

European wasps are attracted to foodstuffs and drinks and can interfere with outdoor eating and living, making family picnics and BBQ’s a nightmare. Unlike bees, the European wasp can sting repeatedly, especially if its nest is disturbed. European wasps can also be a problem for fruit growers, beekeepers and food processors.

At VIP Pest Control we have a reliable solution for treating European Wasps in Melbourne and Bendigo, and are experts when it comes to wasp control in Melbourne and Bendigo.

Owner, Marc, from VIP Pest Control, along with his team are fully accredited to use VESPEX European Wasp Lure. Catching the early queens as they emerge from their winter slumber goes a long way to preventing new nest sites for the season.

Our new system is also approved to be used in insecticide baiting, when mixed with EnsnarePRO. The wasps soon share the bait with the queen and colony, eradicating the whole nest. The VESPEX products are uniquely designed for the European wasp so will not harm the bees and is an extremely safe and quick solution to the eradication of colonies in the area. Our system is not only proven, but it is also safe for the environment protecting local bee colonies in Bendigo and Melbourne during treatment.

The EnsnarePRO contains the active ingredient indoxacarb which is designed to not interfere with the insect’s behaviors and is a non-repellant, meaning the wasps can not detect its presence.

Owner Marc also recommends that along with the wasps, now is the perfect time for spider control and suggests getting your coverage for the coming summer months.
