Flat rate, second visit at no extra cost

Our interventions are charged at a flat rate, known before we travel.

If a second visit is needed, it is carried out at no extra cost. You pay nothing more if the nest is still active.

Fast interventions, 7 days a week

Leave us a message or call 0489 76 07 72, 7 days a week from 7 am to 10 pm. A technician calls you back to assess the situation and plan the intervention at a time that suits you.

Why call Nuisibles-Out rather than the fire brigade?

The fire brigade can remove wasp or hornet nests, but this service is charged and there is usually a waiting time.

In addition, it is not recommended to call emergency services for this type of problem unless there is an immediate threat in sensitive areas such as a nursery or primary school.

By calling Nuisibles-Out, you get a fast, professional intervention without needlessly tying up the 112 emergency services.

Frequently asked questions about wasp and hornet nests

How to identify a wasp or hornet nest?

Wasp nests are often built in sheltered places such as attics, roofs or hedges. They have a texture similar to papier-mâché. Hornet nests, on the other hand, are larger and can be found in trees or buildings.

Is it dangerous to have a wasp or hornet nest near your home?

Yes, wasps and hornets can become aggressive if their nest is disturbed, posing the danger of painful or even dangerous stings in the event of an allergic reaction.

What to do in case of a wasp or hornet sting?

If you are stung in the mouth or throat, call 112 immediately. Give the person an ice cube to suck to limit the swelling. In case of an allergic reaction, call 112 and use an adrenaline auto-injector (EpiPen) if one has been prescribed.

How long does it take to eliminate a wasp or hornet nest?

Our interventions are generally quick and efficient. The duration depends on the size of the nest and its location, but a typical intervention takes less than an hour.

Is a second visit included?

Yes. If the nest is still active and a further intervention is needed, it is carried out at no extra cost.

The Asian hornet in Belgium

In recent years, the presence of Asian hornets in Belgium has become a growing concern for residents and local authorities. Originally from Asia, these insects were accidentally introduced into Europe and quickly adapted to our environment.

They build their nests mainly in trees and sometimes in buildings, reaching impressive sizes. Asian hornets are particularly harmful because they attack bees, thus threatening biodiversity and pollination.

Additionally, their stings can be dangerous for humans, especially in the event of an allergic reaction. Faced with this threat, it is crucial to call on professionals like Nuisibles-Out for rapid and secure elimination of Asian hornet nests.

The Asian hornet: a threat to bees and biodiversity

The Asian hornet (Vespa velutina), also known as the yellow-legged hornet, poses a significant danger to bees and biodiversity.

Originally from Asia, it was introduced into Europe and is spreading quickly, at the expense of bees. Its colonies can number more than 2 000 individuals and become very aggressive near the nest: removing them protects both bees and the public.

Specific training for the Asian hornet

Nuisibles-Out technicians are trained to work on Asian hornet nests. We completed a training course approved by Brussels Environment, in partnership with the Walloon Agricultural Research Centre (CRA-W), which taught us the recommended methods for neutralising this invasive species.
