Wasp Nest Before an Open Home in Melbourne: What to Arrange

The practical answer

Tell the selling agent or property manager about the nest and arrange assessment before visitors arrive. Ask the operator whether the required work and aftercare can fit the viewing schedule. Do not assume a same-day visit means the affected entrance can reopen immediately.

Viewing access needs an agreed alternative

A nest near the front door or garden path may affect visitors who do not know the property. The agent should know which areas are restricted and how prospective buyers will be kept away. Nest treatment, physical removal and any surface repair may be separate tasks.

What to do before the visit

• Identify the agent or owner authorised to approve the quote.
• Move photography, gardening and viewing access away from activity.
• Provide the appointment and viewing times to the operator.

Questions that define the work

• Can the site be assessed before the scheduled viewing?
• What restrictions must the agent communicate?
• Does the agreed scope include removing visible nest material?

What happens next?

Give the agent the actual aftercare instructions and any revised access advice. Reschedule or restrict the viewing if normal access cannot be confirmed. Do not advertise the pest outcome more broadly than the operator’s findings support.
