Stop the most destructive pests in New Zealand in their tracks.
Protect our environment from wasps with a powerful wasp spray that instantly knocks them out, perfect for commercial and residential infestations of all sizes.Â
There are a variety of wasps native to New Zealand, having naturally evolved in this environment without making themselves a pest. However, the same can not be said about the five species of social wasps that have been introduced and are now classed as harmful pests, not just to our local wildlife but to human recreation, too. These introduced species don’t have a place in our natural ecosystem, harming our native insects and birdlife and causing general trouble for our health and outdoor activities.Â
It’s important to identify the species of wasp you are dealing with before going on the offensive with wasp spray, and precautions should always be taken when dealing with aggressive or large hives.Â
Our wasp aerosol spray packs a powerful punch, so it is important to follow the guidance provided to keep your environment deadly for wasps but safe for people. Aim to treat a wasp’s nest early in the morning or late evening when the hive is at its least active.Â

Frequently Asked Questions
New Zealand’s Big Wasp Problem
German wasps (Vespula germanica) have become a major pest in New Zealand due to a combination of environmental advantages and a lack of natural controls. Unlike in their native regions of Europe and North Africa, where natural predators, parasites, and colder winters keep their numbers in check, New Zealand’s mild climate allows these invasive wasps to thrive almost year-round. The absence of native predators and competitors, combined with an abundance of food sources—such as sugary tree sap, nectar, fruit, and even other insects—means German wasps can rapidly establish large colonies.
First recorded in New Zealand in the 1940s, German wasps have adapted exceptionally well to our ecosystems. Their colonies often grow to the size of a football, but in favourable conditions, nests can reach much larger proportions and survive through multiple seasons, compounding the problem each year. With hives sometimes located in sheltered spots under guttering, roof eaves, or tree hollows, they can remain well-protected from the elements and human intervention.
Alongside the German wasp, the Common wasp (Vespula vulgaris) also poses a significant threat, and distinguishing between the two species can be difficult for the untrained eye. One key difference is their nests: German wasp nests are typically grey, while Common wasp nests are brown. Both species are aggressive and compete for food with native birds and insects, creating ecological imbalances and harming New Zealand’s biodiversity.

Simply put – wasps hog all of the food. They infest beech forests and consume a massive amount of the available honeydew that other species require, including bats, native birds, lizards and insects. This overconsumption upsets the natural balance of the current ecosystem, leaving some species to starve and their numbers to lower.Â
Turns out wasps don’t just feast on honeydew, either. They live up to their mean nature and have been spotted devouring massive numbers of insects and have even been documented attacking baby birds in their nests. As their colonies are so large, wasps outweigh the native species around them, posing a massive problem to the environment now and in the future.
