In Australia, wasp nests are commonly found under roof eaves, wall cavities, trees, and outdoor structures. Identifying the species—such as paper wasps or European wasps—is important, as some are more aggressive and may sting repeatedly when disturbed. Wasp nests pose risks to families and pets, especially for individuals with allergies to stings. For safe removal, avoid disturbing the nest and contact licensed pest control professionals who use protective equipment and approved treatments to eliminate the infestation effectively.
