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 TR1, TR2, TR3 and TR4 and the surrounding villages. BPCA-aligned, insured, written quotes. Same-day callouts available for wasps and rodents.
Cornwall's cathedral city has the highest density of homes, student lets, restaurants and offices in the county — and pest pressure to match. Truro pest controllers cover everything from wasp nests in the eaves of TR1 terraces, mice behind cathedral-quarter kitchens, rats in the river-adjacent flats off Lemon Quay, and the steady stream of food-business contract work driven by Truro's hospitality density. We connect Truro across TR1-TR4 and the surrounding villages of Threemilestone, Shortlanesend, Kenwyn, Probus, Tresillian and Chacewater with vetted local pest controllers.
Truro's mix of Georgian terraces, Victorian conversions and 1970s blocks creates classic rodent corridors — shared cavity walls, old service voids, gaps round Victorian soil stacks. Pest controllers here tend to be busiest with commercial contract work (Truro has more food-prep businesses per square mile than anywhere else in Cornwall) and summer wasps. Same-day attendance is usually possible for wasps and rodents mid-week.
Booking a pest controller in Truro shouldn't be a guessing game. Here's how the match works.
Fill in the quote form: your Truro 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 Cornwall pest controller covering Truro. 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.
Wasps, rats, mice, seagulls, bedbugs and commercial contracts. Whatever's bothering you in Truro, we'll match you with the right local pest controller.

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.

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.
