Wasp Nest Removal
Single visit treatment with professional-grade insecticide and physical removal where the nest is accessible. Same-day callouts in season (April-October). Wasps die back; the nest is treated, not just sprayed.
From £80Wasp nest in the eaves? Rats in the shed? Seagulls on a holiday-let roof? Bedbugs in a changeover? We'll match you with a vetted local pest controller covering PL, EX and TQ postcodes and the surrounding villages. BPCA-aligned, insured, written quotes. Same-day callouts available for wasps and rodents.
Devon has two coastlines, two national parks and everything in between: city terraces and student lets in Plymouth and Exeter, seafront hotels and guest houses around Torbay, holiday lets on the north and south coasts, and a great deal of farmland and moorland-edge cottages. The pests follow the landscape: gulls and rats along the harbours and estuaries, mice and rats in older housing, and wasps everywhere from April to October.
Pick your area for local detail: Plymouth, Exeter, Torbay, North Devon, South Hams and Newton Abbot. Just across the Tamar, Saltash has its own page too. Wherever you are, the form below takes a minute: tell us the pest and your postcode.
Booking a pest controller in Devon shouldn't be a guessing game. Here's how the match works.
Fill in the quote form: your Devon postcode, the pest (or pests), where you've seen it, how long it's been a problem, and whether it's a home, holiday let or commercial premises.
We pass your details to a vetted Devon pest controller covering Devon. They contact you direct with a written quote — usually within hours, often same-day for wasps and rodents in season.
Your matched controller attends, treats and (where the pest needs it) returns for follow-up visits and proofing advice. You sign off and pay them direct — no middleman markup, no resold lead.

We prioritise BPCA Servicing Members and Affiliates where available. BPCA Servicing Membership requires compliance with BS EN 16636, minimum £10m Employers and £2m Public Liability insurance, and Lantra Level 3 (or equivalent) qualifications for technical staff. For solo operators we verify training, public liability and rodenticide stewardship membership before referring.
Gulls are protected under the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 and herring/lesser black-backed gulls are not on Natural England's 2026 general licences. Lawful gull control is mainly proofing (spikes, netting, post-and-wire systems), scaring deterrents and removing food sources outside the nesting window. Killing or nest destruction requires an individual licence from Natural England — see our seagull guide.
