Wasps Control Services in Kenya
Wasps are aggressive stinging insects that can pose serious risks to humans, pets, and property. Unlike bees, wasps can sting multiple times and often build nests in easily accessible areas such as eaves, attics, trees, and outdoor structures. In Kenya, wasps are particularly problematic in residential neighborhoods, farms, schools, and commercial properties, where their presence can cause injuries, allergic reactions, and disturbances.
At Rowland Africa, we provide professional wasps control services designed to safely remove nests, prevent stings, and protect your property from future infestations. Our solutions are effective, environmentally responsible, and tailored to your needs.
Understanding Wasps
Wasps are part of the Vespidae family, with species common in Kenya including yellow jackets, paper wasps, and hornets. They are predatory insects that feed on other insects, nectar, and sugary substances. While beneficial in controlling garden pests, their aggressive behavior and stinging ability make them dangerous near homes, schools, offices, and recreational areas.
Wasps are most active during the warmer months, building large colonies that can grow rapidly. Their nests, often made of paper-like material, are usually located in sheltered areas such as:
- Roof eaves, attics, and wall voids
- Trees, shrubs, and hedges
- Garages, sheds, and outdoor furniture
- Underground burrows in lawns or garden areas
Signs of a Wasp Infestation
Detecting wasp infestations early is crucial to prevent stings and property damage. Signs include:
- Visible wasps flying around the property, especially near entrances or outdoor food areas
- Discovery of nests in attics, trees, walls, or underground
- Increased wasp activity during warm, sunny days
- Swarming behavior when nests are disturbed
- Repeated sightings of wasps near garbage bins, compost, or sugary food sources
Causes of Wasp Infestations
Wasps are attracted to properties that provide shelter, food, and water. Common causes include:
- Food sources such as uncovered garbage, compost, fruit trees, and outdoor dining areas
- Sheltered areas for nest building in attics, sheds, or trees
- Standing water or damp areas for hydration
- Lack of regular inspection and maintenance in outdoor spaces
- Proximity to flowering plants or gardens that attract insects
Understanding these causes helps in designing effective control strategies.
Our Wasp Inspection Process
Rowland Africa begins every wasp control service with a detailed inspection to ensure safe and effective removal:
- Property Assessment – Identifying areas of wasp activity and potential nesting sites
- Nest Identification – Locating nests in attics, trees, wall voids, or underground
- Safety Evaluation – Assessing the risk to occupants, pets, and workers
- Customized Treatment Plan – Designing a control strategy tailored to the type of wasp and infestation severity
Wasp Control Treatment Methods
We offer a combination of chemical, mechanical, and preventive strategies to eliminate wasps safely and prevent re-infestation.
Chemical Treatments
- Targeted insecticide sprays applied directly to nests and entry points
- Residual treatments to deter wasps from returning
- Use of safe, approved chemicals to minimize environmental impact
Mechanical Treatments
- Careful removal of nests using protective equipment and safe handling techniques
- Vacuum or manual removal for small nests in low-risk areas
- Physical barriers to prevent access to attics, sheds, and outdoor structures
Preventive Measures
- Sealing entry points such as cracks, vents, and gaps
- Reducing attractants like uncovered food, sugary liquids, and exposed garbage
- Trimming trees and shrubs to discourage nest building
