How To Identify A Wasp Nest

Wasps nests will start to appear during the spring and summer months as the weather begins to warm. Wasps nests are located in sheltered places around the exterior and interior of your home. Typical areas to find wasp nests include cavities in the wall, under the eaves of your house and inside loft spaces. A wasp nest is constructed from chewed wood pulp. Consequently, it looks similar to the nest that has been made from paper mache. One of the most commonly encountered species is the hornet wasp. The worker hornet wasp is equipped with a sting and will defend against any perceived threat to the nest.

Even a relatively small nest can house a large number of wasps. For example, a wasp nest of about 30 cm across could contain up to 6000 wasps. This is why even if you have identified a relatively small nest, you should still contact a wasp control specialist firm to dispose of it.

Wasp Nests In Your Loft

To establish whether you have a wasp infestation in your loft, follow these steps. First, turn the light inside the attic on and then close the hatch door. Return to the loft about half an hour later to inspect for wasps. If there is a nest inside your loft, the wasps are flying around where the leading light is located. If you discover a nest inside your attic, the next step is to turn off the light, close the hatch door, and contact a Maghull wasp nest removal service.
