Do you suspect or know that you have a wasp nest on your property? You're not alone. Thousands of residential and commercial property owners deal with wasp infestations every year. And the best way to address the issue is to take advantage of the services of a local professional. That way, the problem with the wasps will be dealt with in a timely and effective manner and you don't have to risk dealing with the pain of a wasp sting.
If you have a garden and grow crops, wasps can be beneficial as they will control the population of crop-eating insects such as caterpillars, flies, aphids, and more. However, for the average UK resident and business owner, a wasp nest on their property is hardly beneficial. Once the nest inevitably grows, you may have to start dealing with hundreds of wasps, which is never a fun experience, especially if you've never dealt with wasps before.
Wasps that are out of control can be aggressive, and it won't be uncommon for people around to get attacked and stung. Not only that, but hundreds of wasps can cause some serious damage to the wooden structure of your property, as they will chew it away to gather resources for their nest.
Over time, they will go from being a nuisance to being dangerous to you and everyone around (including your pets), which is why most of our customers opt for our effective wasp nest treatments before the issue goes out of hand.
Being able to see the wasp nest in its entirety is the easiest way to confirm that there's a wasp nest on your property.

If you suspect a wasp nest, there are three signs to look out for, including:

The UK is home to seven different wasp species, each of which has a set of different characteristics. Some are far more aggressive than others as they mostly nest in residential and commercial properties while others prefer to stay in rural areas where they are unbothered. The two most common wasps you are most likely to deal with in the UK include:
The good news is that wasps are very particular when it comes to deciding where to build their nest. Ideally, the area they decide to make their home will be close to all the resources they need, including water and food. The area must also be protected from predators and harsh weather conditions.
Knowing that, there are many steps you can take to prevent wasps from deciding to nest on your property in the future. We would recommend that you:
