Bickershaw Wasp Nest Removal

 An indication that a property has a hornet or wasp problem may be due to the increase in the number of wasps seen locally. In addition, the construction of a nest within a property may have led to 'strange' noises emanating from a wall or ceiling void. Under these circumstances, it will be necessary to procure the services of a hornet and wasp control professional.

Why "do it yourself" is a bad idea.

 There are many problems that capable people can deal with by themselves. However, when it comes to an effort to get rid of wasp nests, it is prudent to employ the services of a wasp exterminator. This is because a wasp can give an excruciating sting, and a wasp nest can contain three and five thousand wasps. The consequences of making a mistake when dealing with such a problem could be catastrophic. When in 'defence mode', a single wasp will emit a pheromone which will attract the other occupants of a nest to assist. Even a single sting can lead to a person being hospitalised if they are prone to suffering an allergic reaction to the wasp venom.

What will a hornet and wasp control expert do?

 The wasp exterminator will have access to the correct protective clothing, professional tools and insecticide insecticides which will not be available to the general public. Using these instruments, Bickershaw wasp nest removal will be undertaken safely and timely by applying insecticide to the area around the nest entrance. This will cause the wasps to carry the poison inside. Thus, the destruction of the nest will be assured without any human intrusion, which may lead to angering the wasps and causing them to be a danger to people in the vicinity. 

Where are wasp nests found, what do they look like?

 Internally, wasp nests can be found in roof and loft spaces, air vents, in wall cavities and under the eaves of a house. Externally nests may be found in a shed or garage and in a garden where hollow trees, bird nesting boxes, and bushes may be found.

The wasp nest may be as small as a golf ball or as large as a football, depending on the level of its development. The construction will generally begin with the warmer springtime weather when the wasps produce a 'paper-like material to develop their new home. A nest may ultimately contain up to 5,000 worker wasps and a queen. The workers will have a very short lifespan, only up to around three weeks, while the queen may live for about a year.

What type of hornet and wasp is found in the UK

 Wasps in the UK are generally of the standard type (Vespula vulgaris)and the German type(Vespula Germanica). Hornets (Vespa crabro) are not so common in the United Kingdom and are most likely to be found in the southern part of England. Wasp nest removal costs will be matched to the size of the nest, the difficulty encountered in removing it and the length of time required to complete the project. To get rid of wasp nests, the professional will use his knowledge to apply the correct insecticide in the right amount to alleviate the problem safely. The wasp exterminator will advise the wasp nest removal cost before undertaking the work.

Preventative actions

 There are several things that the property owner can undertake to prevent hornets and wasps from becoming a problem. The first thing is to move waste bins from proximity to their building during the warmer weather. The lids of the containers will also need to be firmly secured to prevent wasps from being attracted to the food inside. In addition, Flyscreens can be fitted to windows, which may need to be open during the warm weather, to prevent all types of flying insects from entering the property.
