Derby City Council runs its own pest control service (details). It treats rats, mice (inside only), wasps, cockroaches, bed bugs, fleas, carpet beetles, cluster flies, squirrels (advice visit only). 2026/27, booked online (phone prices higher): rats inside or outside £109 and mice £109 (up to 4 visits); wasps £74 for one nest; cockroaches £282; bed bugs from £218 (up to three bedrooms); fleas or carpet beetles from £130; cluster flies £129; squirrel advice visit £39. Private landlord and housing association properties pay the commercial call-out fee (£85 + VAT from 1 April 2026). No concessions published.

Nests grow fastest from June to September, so the earlier one is treated the fewer wasps there are to deal with. After treatment, keep away from the entrance for about 24 hours while the wasps die off. We cover City Centre, Allestree, Alvaston, Allenton and the rest of DE1, DE3, DE21–DE24, DE65, DE72 and DE73.

Local Knowledge: Wasp Nest Removal In Derby

Derby lays claim to one of the first public parks in the country. Historic England records that the Derby Arboretum, given by Joseph Strutt and designed by John Claudius Loudon, opened on 16 September 1840. The tree-lined park and the 19th-century houses of the Arboretum conservation area around it, along with the big green spaces at Markeaton, Darley and Allestree, are prime wasp country: plenty of insects and sweet things to feed on, and older roofs with gaps at the eaves and verges where a queen can start a nest in April.

Derby City Council does treat wasps. Its 2026/27 fees are £74 online or £85 by phone for one nest, £24 for each extra nest (phone bookings only), a further £24 if a ladder is needed, and a £32 charge if the insects turn out to be bees. Phone bookings are taken between 9am and 1pm.

We'll explain the likely cost before the visit; it depends on the nest, the property and when you need us. The technician puffs insecticide dust into the entrance, which usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, and you keep clear of the area for 24 hours. We answer the phone from 6am to 8pm every day, and in August and September, when nests are at their biggest, we can often come the same day.

More local detail (neighbourhoods, the council's pest service and charges, nearby towns) is on our pest control in Derby page.

Wasp Nest Removal Derby: FAQs

Not always. Wasp colonies die off in autumn: the workers die and new queens leave to hibernate elsewhere, and an old nest isn't reused. If the nest isn't near a door, window or loft hatch you use, leaving it alone can be reasonable. If wasps are still getting into rooms, treat it.

Same-day visits are often possible in wasp season. We work 7 days a week, 6am–8pm, with emergency call-outs every day: call 07999 935 929. The treatment itself usually takes 15–30 minutes.

We'll check before treating. Honeybee swarms are collected by local beekeepers wherever possible, and bumblebee nests are usually best left alone; we only treat bees as a last resort. See our bee removal page.

No. Treating the nest kills the colony; the empty nest isn't reused. We remove accessible nests on request.
